This notice announces that
CMS, based on the projected availability
of funding under the Early Retiree
Reinsurance Program (ERRP), is
exercising its authority under the ERRP
regulations at 45 CFR 149.45(a) to deny
ERRP reimbursement requests, in their
entirety, that include claims that are
incurred after December 31, 2011.
Therefore, plan sponsors must not
include such claims in their Claim Lists
and Summary Cost Data submitted in
support of a reimbursement request.
Should circumstances related to the
availability of ERRP funding change,
CMS may issue a new notice
announcing approval of ERRP
reimbursement request that include
claims incurred after December 31,
2011.
DATES: Effective Date: This notice is
effective December 9, 2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
David Mlawsky, (410) 786–6851.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Background
The Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act (Pub. L. 111–148, enacted on
March 23, 2010) (the Affordable Care
Act), included a provision that
establishes the temporary Early Retiree
Reinsurance Program (ERRP), which
provides reimbursement to eligible
sponsors of employment-based plans for
a portion of the costs of providing
health coverage to early retirees (and
eligible spouses, surviving spouses, and
dependents of such retirees). Section
1102(a)(1) of the Affordable Care Act
PO 00000
Frm 00068
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
required the Secretary to establish the
program within 90 days of enactment of
the law (by June 21, 2010). In the May
5, 2010 Federal Register (75 FR 24450),
we published an interim final regulation
with comment period, implementing the
program as of June 1, 2010. Section
1102(e) of the Affordable Care Act
appropriates funding of $5 billion for
the temporary program. The regulation
at 45 CFR 149.45(a) states that based on
the projected or actual availability of
program funding, the Secretary may
deny applications that otherwise meet
the requirements of this part, and if an
application is approved, may deny all or
part of a sponsor’s reimbursement
request. Under that authority, in the
April 5, 2011 Federal Register (76 FR
18766), the Secretary announced that
CMS would stop accepting applications
for ERRP as of May 6, 2011.
II. Provisions of This Notice
CMS is exercising our authority under
45 CFR 149.45(a) to deny certain
reimbursement requests based on the
available amount remaining of the $5
billion in appropriated program
funding, and the rate at which it is being
disbursed. We are now announcing that
any Claim List submitted to ERRP in
support of a reimbursement request, that
includes one or more claims with an
incurred date identified as January 1,
2012 or after, will be rejected in its
entirety. Therefore, to avoid such a
consequence, a plan sponsor must not
submit any Claim List or Summary Cost
Data that includes any claim with an
incurred date identified as January 1,
2012 or later.
As specified in 45 CFR 149.325, a
claim may be submitted to ERRP only
after it has been incurred, and paid.
Therefore, under this notice, and
consistent with current policy, if a claim
is incurred on or before December 31,
2011, but paid after December 31, 2011,
the sponsor may submit the claim, but
not until it has been paid. Existing
guidance defining the date upon which
various types of claims are considered
