and Human Services, is publishing the
following summary of proposed
collections for public comment.
Interested persons are invited to send
comments regarding this burden
estimate or any other aspect of this
collection of information, including any
of the following subjects: (1) The
necessity and utility of the proposed
information collection for the proper
performance of the Agency’s function;

(2) the accuracy of the estimated
burden; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (4) the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology to
minimize the information collection
burden.
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: New collection; Title of
Information Collection: Section 1115
Demonstration: Long Term Services and
Supports (LTSS) and Other Service
Models for Individuals with Disabilities
and Chronic Conditions; Use: Section
1115 of the Social Security Act provides
the Secretary of Health and Human
Services broad authority to authorize
experimental, pilot, or demonstration
projects likely to assist in promoting the
objectives of the Medicaid statute.
Flexibility under Section 1115 is
sufficiently broad to allow States to test
substantially new ideas of policy merit.
States seeking interventions for
individuals needing LTSS to lower
costs, improve care and improve health
can utilize the 1115 demonstration to
test and deliver innovative services and
approaches to better and more
efficiently meet the needs of this
population. Section 1115
demonstrations provide a vehicle for
innovations in both care delivery and
payment methodologies.
Demonstrations must be ‘‘budget
neutral’’ over the life of the project,
meaning they cannot be expected to cost
the Federal government more than it
would cost without the waiver. State
Medicaid agencies are responsible for
developing section 1115 demonstration
applications and submitting them to
