Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 159 / Friday, August 16, 2013 / Notices
U.S.C. 3106(a); and sections 225.83 and
225.93 of Regulation Y, 12 CFR 225.83
and 225.93; and section 238.66(b) of
Regulation LL.
The FR 4017 is required to obtain a
benefit and is authorized under Section
9 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C.
335; and section 208.76 of Regulation H,
12 CFR 208.76.
The FR 4019 is required to obtain a
benefit and is authorized under Section
4(k)(7) of the BHC Act, 12 U.S.C.
1843(k)(7); and sections 225.171(e)(3),
225.172(b)(4), and 225.173(c)(2) of
Regulation Y, 12 CFR 225.171(e)(3),
225.172(b)(4), and 225.173(c)(2).
The FR 4023 is mandatory and is
authorized under Section 4(k)(7) of the
BHC Act, 12 U.S.C. 1843(k)(7); and
sections 225.171(e)(4) and 225.175 of
Regulation Y, 12 CFR 225.171(e)(4) and
225.175.
For the FR 4010, FR 4011, FR 4017,
FR 4019, and information related to a
failure to meet capital requirements on
the FR 4012, a company may request
confidential treatment of the
information contained in these
information collections pursuant to
section (b)(4) and (b)(6) of the Freedom
of Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552
(b)(4) and (b)(6)). Information related to
a failure to meet management
requirements on the FR 4012 is
confidential and exempt from disclosure
under section (b)(4), because the release
of this information would cause
substantial harm to the competitive
position of the entity, and (b)(8) if the
information is related to examination,
operating, or condition reports prepared
by, on behalf of, or for the use of an
agency responsible for the regulation or
supervision of financial institutions.
Since the Federal Reserve does not
collect the FR 4023, no issue of
confidentiality under the FOIA arises.
FOIA will only be implicated if the
Board’s examiners retained a copy of the
records in their examination or
supervision of the institution, and
would likely be exempt from disclosure
pursuant to FOIA (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4),
(b)(6), and (b)(8)).
Abstract: Each BHC or FBO seeking
FHC status must file the FR 4010
declaration, which includes information
needed to verify eligibility for FHC
status. By filing the FR 4011, a requestor
may ask the Board to determine that an
activity is financial in nature, to issue
an advisory opinion that an activity is
within the scope of an activity
previously determined to be financial in
nature, or to approve engagement in an
activity complementary to a financial
activity. Any FHC ceasing to meet
capital or managerial prerequisites for
FHC status must notify the Board of the

deficiency by filing the FR 4012 and
often must submit plans to the Board to
cure the deficiency. Any SMB seeking to
establish a financial subsidiary must
seek the Board’s prior approval by
submitting the FR 4017. Any FHC
seeking to extend the 10-year holding
period for a merchant banking
investment must submit the FR 4019 to
apply for the Board’s prior approval,
and a FHC also must notify the Board
if it routinely manages or operates a
portfolio company for more than nine
months. All FHCs engaging in merchant
banking activities must keep records of
those activities, and make them
available to examiners as specified in
the FR 4023 requirements.
There are no formal reporting forms
for these collections of information,
which are event generated, though in
each case the type of information
required to be filed is described in the
Board’s regulations. These collections of
information are required pursuant to
amendments made by the GLB Act to
the BHC Act or the Federal Reserve Act,
or Board regulations issued to carry out
the GLB Act.
Current Actions: On May 30, 2013, the
Federal Reserve published a notice in
the Federal Register (78 FR 32387)
requesting public comment for 60 days
on the extension for three years, with
revision, of the FR 4012. The comment
period for this notice expired on July 29,
2013. The Federal Reserve did not
receive any comments. The revision will
be implemented as proposed.

Agency Information Collection
Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
ACTION:
Notice.
The Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services (CMS) is announcing
an opportunity for the public to
comment on CMS’ intention to collect
information from the public. Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA), federal agencies are required to
publish notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension or reinstatement of an existing
collection of information, and to allow
a second opportunity for public
comment on the notice. Interested
persons are invited to send comments
regarding the 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.
DATES: Comments on the collection(s) of
information must be received by the
OMB desk officer by September 16,
2013:
ADDRESSES: When commenting on the
proposed information collections,
please reference the document identifier
or OMB control number. To be assured
consideration, comments and
recommendations must be received by
the OMB desk officer via one of the
following transmissions: OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Attention: CMS Desk Officer, Fax
Number: (202) 395–6974 OR Email:

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), federal Agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. The term ‘‘collection of
information’’ is defined in 44 U.S.C.
3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) and
includes agency requests or
requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)) requires federal agencies
to publish a 30-day notice in the
Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension or
reinstatement of an existing collection
of information, before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, CMS is
publishing this notice that summarizes
the following proposed collection(s) of
information for public comment:
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Reinstatement of a previously
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Certification of
Medicaid Eligibility Quality Control
(MEQC) Payment Error Rates; Use:
These reviews are conducted to
determine whether or not the sampled
cases meet applicable State Title XIX or
XXI eligibility requirements when
applicable. The reviews are also used to
assess beneficiary liability, if any, and to
determine the amounts paid to provide
Medicaid services for these cases. In the
Medicaid Eligibility Quality Control
(MEQC) system, sampling is the only
practical method of validating eligibility
of the total caseload and determining
the dollar value of eligibility liability
errors. Any attempt to make such
validations and determinations by
reviewing every case would be an
enormous and unwieldy undertaking.
During each 6-month review period,
states are required to collect data on
eligibility payment error dollars and
paid claims dollars for each case in the
sample. States must also identify cases
for which a review cannot be
conducted. At the conclusion of the 6month review period, states must
complete the Payment Error Rate form
which contains aggregate data on
