Notice.
In compliance with the
requirement for opportunity for public
comment on proposed data collection
projects (section 3506(c)(2)(A) of Title
44, United States Code, as amended by
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
Pub. L. 104–13), the Health Resources

Information Collection Request Title:
National Practitioner Data Bank for
Adverse Information on Physicians and
Other Health Care Practitioners—45
CFR Part 60 Regulations and Forms
OMB No. 0915–0126—Revision
Abstract: This is a request for a
revision of OMB approval of the
information collections contained in
regulations found at 45 CFR Part 60
governing the National Practitioner Data
Bank (NPDB) and the forms to be used
in registering with, reporting
information to, and requesting
information from the NPDB. Section
6403 of the Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act of 2010 (Affordable
Care Act) Public Law 111–148 requires
the transfer of all data in the Healthcare
Integrity and Protection Data Bank
(HIPDB) to the NPDB. Data collection
will not change; however, the merger
will consolidate forms from OMB No.
0915–0239 for HIPDB under OMB No.
0915–0126 for NPDB. Responsibility for
NPDB implementation and operation
resides in the Bureau of Health
Professions, Health Resources and
Services Administration (HRSA),
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS). Operation of the HIPDB
was delegated by the HHS Office of the
Inspector General to HRSA. This rule
E:\FR\FM\08JAN1.SGM
08JAN1
1215
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 5 / Tuesday, January 8, 2013 / Notices
eliminates duplicative data reporting
and access requirements between the
HIPDB [established through the Health
Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPPA)
under Section 1128(b)(5) of the Social
Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1320a–7e)] and
the NPDB [established through the
Health Care Quality Improvement Act of
1986 under Title IV (42 U.S.C. 11101 et
seq.) and expanded by Section 1921 of
the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C.
1396r–2)]. Information previously
collected and disclosed through the
HIPDB will be collected and disclosed
through the NPDB. Section 6403 of the
Affordable Care Act consolidates the
collection and disclosure of information
from both data banks under Title 45 part
60 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR). The Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) will
subsequently remove Title 45 part 61,
which implemented the HIPDB.
The intent of NPDB is to improve the
quality of health care by encouraging
hospitals, state licensing boards,
professional societies, and other entities
providing health care services, to
identify and discipline those who
engage in unprofessional behavior; and
to restrict the ability of incompetent
health care practitioners, providers, or
suppliers to move from state to state
without disclosure of previous
damaging or incompetent performance.
It also serves as a fraud and abuse
clearinghouse for the reporting and
disclosing of certain final adverse
actions (excluding settlements in which
no findings of liability have been made)
taken against health care practitioners,
providers, or suppliers by health plans,
federal agencies, and state agencies.
The NPDB acts primarily as a flagging
system; its principal purpose is to
facilitate comprehensive review of
practitioners’ professional credentials
and background. Information is
collected from, and disseminated to,
eligible entities (entities that are entitled
to query and/or report to the NPDB
under the three aforementioned
statutory authorities) on the following:
(1) Medical malpractice payments, (2)
licensure actions taken by Boards of
Medical Examiners, (3) state licensure
and certification actions, (4) federal
licensure and certification actions, (5)
negative actions or findings taken by
peer review organizations or private
accreditation entities, (6) adverse
actions taken against clinical privileges,
(7) federal or state criminal convictions
related to the delivery of a health care
item or service, (8) civil judgments
related to the delivery of a health care
item or service, (9) exclusions from
participation in federal or state health
care programs, and (10) other
adjudicated actions or decisions. It is
intended that NPDB information should
Number of
respondents
Form name
Number of
responses per
respondent
be considered with other relevant
information in evaluating credentials of
health care practitioners, providers, and
suppliers.
The reporting forms and the request
for information forms (query forms) are
accessed, completed, and submitted to
the NPDB electronically through the
NPDB Web site at https://www.npdbhipdb.hrsa.gov/. All reporting and
querying is performed through this
secure Web site.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose, or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions, to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information, to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information, to search
data sources, to complete and review
the collection of information, and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this Information
Collection Request are summarized in
the table below.

SUMMARY: In compliance with the requirement for opportunity for public
comment on proposed data collection projects (section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
Title 44, United States Code, as amended by the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995, Pub. L. 104-13), the Health Resources and Services
Administration (HRSA) publishes periodic summaries of proposed projects
being developed for submission to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. To request more
information on the proposed project or to obtain a copy of the data
collection plans and draft instruments, email paperwork@hrsa.gov or
call the HRSA Reports Clearance Officer at (301) 443-1984.
HRSA especially requests comments on: (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.
Information Collection Request Title: National Practitioner Data Bank
for Adverse Information on Physicians and Other Health Care
Practitioners--45 CFR Part 60 Regulations and Forms OMB No. 0915-0126--
Revision
Abstract: This is a request for a revision of OMB approval of the
information collections contained in regulations found at 45 CFR Part
60 governing the National Practitioner Data Bank (NPDB) and the forms
to be used in registering with, reporting information to, and
requesting information from the NPDB. Section 6403 of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (Affordable Care Act) Public
Law 111-148 requires the transfer of all data in the Healthcare
Integrity and Protection Data Bank (HIPDB) to the NPDB. Data collection
will not change; however, the merger will consolidate forms from OMB
No. 0915-0239 for HIPDB under OMB No. 0915-0126 for NPDB.
Responsibility for NPDB implementation and operation resides in the
Bureau of Health Professions, Health Resources and Services
Administration (HRSA), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
Operation of the HIPDB was delegated by the HHS Office of the Inspector
General to HRSA. This rule
[[Page 1215]]
eliminates duplicative data reporting and access requirements between
the HIPDB [established through the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPPA) under Section 1128(b)(5) of the
Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1320a-7e)] and the NPDB [established
through the Health Care Quality Improvement Act of 1986 under Title IV
(42 U.S.C. 11101 et seq.) and expanded by Section 1921 of the Social
Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396r-2)]. Information previously collected and
disclosed through the HIPDB will be collected and disclosed through the
NPDB. Section 6403 of the Affordable Care Act consolidates the
collection and disclosure of information from both data banks under
Title 45 part 60 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). The
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will subsequently remove
Title 45 part 61, which implemented the HIPDB.
The intent of NPDB is to improve the quality of health care by
encouraging hospitals, state licensing boards, professional societies,
and other entities providing health care services, to identify and
discipline those who engage in unprofessional behavior; and to restrict
the ability of incompetent health care practitioners, providers, or

The NPDB acts primarily as a flagging system; its principal purpose
is to facilitate comprehensive review of practitioners' professional
credentials and background. Information is collected from, and
disseminated to, eligible entities (entities that are entitled to query
and/or report to the NPDB under the three aforementioned statutory
authorities) on the following: (1) Medical malpractice payments, (2)
licensure actions taken by Boards of Medical Examiners, (3) state
licensure and certification actions, (4) federal licensure and
certification actions, (5) negative actions or findings taken by peer
review organizations or private accreditation entities, (6) adverse
actions taken against clinical privileges, (7) federal or state
criminal convictions related to the delivery of a health care item or
service, (8) civil judgments related to the delivery of a health care
item or service, (9) exclusions from participation in federal or state
health care programs, and (10) other adjudicated actions or decisions.
It is intended that NPDB information should be considered with other
relevant information in evaluating credentials of health care
practitioners, providers, and suppliers.
The reporting forms and the request for information forms (query
forms) are accessed, completed, and submitted to the NPDB
electronically through the NPDB Web site at https://www.npdb-hipdb.hrsa.gov/. All reporting and querying is performed through this
secure Web site.
Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the
information requested. This includes the time needed to review
instructions, to develop, acquire, install and utilize technology and
systems for the purpose of collecting, validating and verifying
