Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
Summary: In accordance with the
requirement of Section 3506 (c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
which provides opportunity for public
comment on new or revised data
collections, the Railroad Retirement
Board (RRB) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed data collections.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed information collection is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information has practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of the information; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden related to

respondents, including the use of

Title and purpose of information
collection: Application for
Reimbursement for Hospital Insurance
Services in Canada; OMB 3220–0086.
Under section 7(d) of the Railroad
Retirement Act (RRA), the RRB
administers the Medicare program for
persons covered by the railroad
retirement system. Payments are
provided under section 7(d)4) of the
RRA for medical services furnished in
Canada to the same extent as for those
furnished in the United States.
However, payments for the services
furnished in Canada are made from the
Railroad Retirement Account rather
than from the Federal Hospital
Insurance Trust Fund, with the
payments limited to the amount by
which insurance benefits under
Medicare exceed the amount payable
under Canadian Provincial plans.
Form AA–104, Application for
Canadian Hospital Benefits Under
Medicare—Part A, is provided by the
RRB to a claimant seeking
reimbursement for covered hospital
services received in Canada. The form
obtains information needed to
determine the eligibility of the applicant
and the amount of any reimbursement
due. One response is requested of each
respondent. Completion is required to
obtain a benefit. The RRB proposes no
changes to Form AA–104.
The estimated annual respondent
burden is as follows:
