DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Office of Workers’ Compensation
Programs
Proposed Renewal of Existing
Collection; Comment Request
ACTION:
Notice.
The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This
program helps to ensure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. Currently, the Office
of Workers’ Compensation Programs is
soliciting comments concerning the
proposed collection: Certification of
Medical Necessity (CM–893). A copy of
the proposed information collection
request can be obtained by contacting
the office listed below in the addresses
section of this Notice.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the
addresses section below on or before
October 6, 2014.
ADDRESSES: Ms. Yoon Ferguson, U.S.
Department of Labor, 200 Constitution
Ave. NW., Room S–3201, Washington,
DC 20210, telephone (202) 693–0701,
fax (202) 693–1449, Email
Ferguson.yoon@dol.gov. Please use only
one method of transmission for
comments (mail, fax, or Email).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background: The Office of Workers’
Compensation Programs administers the
Federal Black Lung Workers’
Compensation Program. The enabling
regulations of the Black Lung Benefits
Act, at 20 CFR 725.701, establishes
miner eligibility for medical services
and supplies for the length of time
required by the miner’s condition and
disability. 20 CFR.706 stipulates there
emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES

must be prior approval before ordering
an apparatus where the purchase price
exceeds $300.00. 20 CFR 725.707
provides for the ongoing supervision of
the miner’s medical care, including the
necessity, character and sufficiency of
care to be furnished; gives the authority
to request medical reports and indicates
the right to refuse payment for failing to
submit any reports required. Because of
the above legislation and regulations, it
was necessary to devise a form to collect
the required information. The CM–893,
Certificate of Medical Necessity is
completed by the coal miner’s doctor
and is used by the Division of Coal Mine
Worker’s Compensation to determine if
the miner meets impairment standards
to qualify for durable medical
equipment, home nursing, and/or
pulmonary rehabilitation. This
information collection is currently
approved for use through December 30,
2014.
II. Review Focus: The Department of
Labor is particularly interested in
comments which:
* Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
* evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
* enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
* minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
III. Current Actions: The Department
of Labor seeks the approval for the
extension of this currently-approved
information collection in order to carry
out its responsibility to determine the
eligibility for reimbursement of medical
benefits to Black Lung recipients.

Compensation Programs.
