Agency Information Collection
Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services.
In compliance with the requirement
of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
Services (CMS) 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 functions;
(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: Reinstatement of a previously
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Physician Group
Practice Transition Demonstration
(PGP–TD) Performance Assessment Tool
(‘‘PAT’’); Use: The Physician Group
Practice (PGP) Demonstration was
mandated by section 412 of the
Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP
Benefits Improvement and Protection
Act of 2000 and is the precursor to the
Medicare Shared Savings Program.
Section 1899(k) of the Social Security
Act, as added by section 10307(k) of the
Affordable Care Act (as amended by
section 10307 of the Health Care and
Education Reconciliation Act of 2010),
states ‘‘the Secretary may enter into an
agreement with an ACO under the
Demonstration under section 1866A,
subject to rebasing and other
modifications deemed appropriate by
the Secretary.’’ The Demonstration
extension is entitled the PGP Transition
Demonstration (PGP–TD).
We are seeking reinstatement of the
collection of information as it was
erroneously discontinued. Only a
portion of the information collection
requirements previously approved
under 0938–0941 should have been

discontinued. The collection of
information is strictly voluntary in
nature and was developed in
conjunction with the industry and
Demonstration participants. Only
organizations that voluntarily respond
and elect to participate in the
Demonstration will be reporting the
measures. Moreover, CMS will not be
using this information to regulate or
sanction but rather to provide financial
incentives for improving the quality of
care. The collection of information to be
used under this extension is being used
to test quality data collection systems
and determine incentive payment levels
to participating physician group
practices participating in the PGP–TD.
In addition, this data will be used to
evaluate the effectiveness of these
payment models and provide insight
into the most appropriate way for the
agency to collect clinical information.
Form Number: CMS–10136 (OCN:
0938–0941); Frequency: Yearly; Affected
Public: Private Sector—Business or
other for-profits and not-for-profit
institutions. Number of Respondents:
10. Number of Responses: 10. Total
Annual Hours: 790. (For policy
questions regarding this collection
contact Heather Grimsley at 410–786–
1048. For all other issues call 410–786–
1326.)
2. Type of Information Collection
Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection;
Title of Information Collection:
Conditions for Payment of Power
Mobility Devices, including Power
Wheelchairs and Power-Operated
Vehicles; Use: CMS is renewing our
request for approval for the collection
requirements associated with the final
rule, CMS–3017–F (71 FR 17021), which
was published on April 5, 2006 and
became effective on June 5, 2006. The
regulation CMS–3017–F finalized
provisions set forth in the interim final
regulation (70 FR 50940) published on
August 26, 2005. This final rule
conforms our regulations to section
302(a)(2)(E)(iv) of the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement, and
Modernization Act of 2003. This rule
defines the term power mobility devices
(PMDs) as power wheelchairs and
power operated vehicles (POVs or
scooters). It sets forth revised conditions
for Medicare payment of PMDs and
defines who may prescribe PMDs. This
rule also requires a face-to-face
examination of the beneficiary by the
physician or treating practitioner, a
written prescription, and receipt of
pertinent parts of the medical record by
the supplier within 45 days after the
face-to-face examination that the
