Comment Request
Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services, HHS.
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: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title: Consumer
Assistance Program Grants; Use: Section
1002 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA)
provides for the establishment of
consumer assistance (or ombudsman)
programs, starting in FY 2010. Federal
grants will support these programs.
These programs will assist consumers
with filing complaints and appeals,
assist consumers with enrollment into
health coverage, collect data on
consumer inquiries and complaints to
identify problems in the marketplace,
educate consumers on their rights and
responsibilities, and with the

establishment of the new Exchange
marketplaces, resolve problems with
premium credits for Exchange coverage.
Importantly, these programs must
provide detailed reporting on the types
of problems and questions consumers
may experience with health coverage,
and how these problems and questions
are resolved. In order to strengthen
oversight, section 2793(d) of the ACA
requires programs to report data to the
Secretary of the Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS) ‘‘As a
condition of receiving a grant under
subsection (a), an office of health
insurance consumer assistance or
ombudsman program shall be required
to collect and report data to the
Secretary on the types of problems and
inquiries encountered by consumers’’.
Analysis of this data reporting will
help identify patterns of practice in the
insurance marketplaces and uncover
suspected patterns of noncompliance.
HHS must share program data reports
with the Departments of Labor and
Treasury, and State regulators. Program
data also can offer CMS one indication
of the effectiveness of State
enforcement, affording opportunities to
provide technical assistance and
support to State insurance regulators
and, in extreme cases, inform the need
to trigger federal enforcement. Form
Number: CMS–10333 (OMB#: 0938–
1097); Frequency: Quarterly and
Annually; Affected Public: Private
Sector: State, Local, or Tribal
Governments; Number of Respondents:
56; Total Annual Responses: 504; Total

collection contact Eliza Bangit at 301–
