Information Collection Request Title:
Survey of Physician Time Use Patterns
Under the Medicare Fee Schedule
Abstract: The objectives of this study
are to conduct initial exploration of the
time inputs to the Medicare Fee
Schedule. The information, to be
collected through primary data
collection and analysis of administrative
data, will help Assistant Secretary
Planning and Evaluation (ASPE) to
better understand—for a limited number
of services and specialties—one aspect
of how clinical services are delivered
and the relationships between the
clinical time spent by physicians and
the time that is currently part of the fee
schedule. The total average burden
hours for which we are seeking approval
in this package is 200 hours. The survey
will be multi-mode, with 50% of
PO 00000
Frm 00040
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
responses anticipated via the web
survey, 45% through the mail, and 5%
over the phone. The latter will be
obtained by interviewers who conduct a
follow up with non-respondents by
telephone to prompt completion of the
survey; they will provide an
opportunity to complete the paper
survey over the phone. The surveys are
estimated to take an average of 20
minutes to complete. Need and
Proposed Use of the Information: The
intended data collection effort is a
survey of physician providers in five
specialties (family medicine, radiology,
cardiology, ophthalmology, and
orthopedics) to gather information on
the clinical time spent by the physician
and associated non-physician providers
in providing selected services as well as
related information on the physician’s
practice. The information collected
focuses on the time data that is used as
an input in the fee schedule. As part of
the project, the time data collected in
the survey of physicians will be
analyzed along with time input data
from the fee schedule to examine (i) the
strength of the correlation between
physician-reported clinical time and
fee-schedule time values for surveyed
services; (ii) how consistent the
relationships are across services and
across specialties; (iii) whether the
relationships vary across physicians in
different types of practice settings; and
(iv) whether this approach to gathering
time data is feasible and could be scaled
up for a larger effort.
Likely Respondents: A total of 600
physicians are expected to complete the
survey. This includes 120 primary care
physicians and 480 specialists including
Ophthalmologists, Orthopedists,
Radiologists, and Cardiologists.
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 ICR are
summarized in the table below.
