We will use the data collection to
amend the risk corridors program
provisions in 45 CFR Part 153 to
mitigate any unexpected losses for
issuers of plans subject to risk corridors
that are attributable to the effects of this
transitional policy. Specifically, we will
use the data to calculate the risk
corridors adjustment percentage, if any,
in transitional states. Form Number:
CMS–10532 (OMB control number:
0938—New); Frequency: Once; Affected
Public: Private Sector, Business or other
for-profits and not-for-profit
institutions; Number of Respondents:
400; Total Annual Responses: 400; Total
Annual Hours: 400. (For policy
questions regarding this collection
contact Jaya Ghildiyal at (301) 492–
5149).
4. Type of Information Collection
Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Application to
Be a Qualified Entity to Receive
Medicare Data for Performance
Measurement; Use: Section 10332 of the
Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act (ACA) requires the Secretary to
make standardized extracts of Medicare
claims data under Parts A, B, and D
available to ‘‘qualified entities’’ for the
evaluation of the performance of
providers of services and suppliers. The
statute provides the Secretary with
discretion to establish criteria to
determine whether an entity is qualified
to use claims data to evaluate the
performance of providers of services
and suppliers. We are proposing at
section 42 CFR 401.703 to evaluate an
organization’s eligibility across three
areas: Organizational and governance
capabilities, addition of claims data
from other sources (as required in the
statute), and data privacy and security.
This is the application through which
organizations will provide information
to CMS to determine whether they will
be approved as a qualified entity. Form
Number: CMS–10394 (OMB control
number: 0938–1144); Frequency:
Occasionally; Affected Public: Private
sector—Business or other for-profits and
Not-for-profit institutions; Number of
Respondents: 35; Total Annual
Responses: 35; Total Annual Hours:
6,833. (For policy questions regarding
this collection contact Kari Gaare at

Title: Office of Head Start (OHS)
Information Collection Form.
OMB No.: New Collection.
Description: The Head Start Program
Performance Standards (45 CFR parts
1304.22(a)(3) and 1306.35(a)(4)(b)(1))
mandate that Head Start programs
develop emergency preparedness plans
and conduct periodic drills to ensure
they have protocols in place, supported
by policies and procedures, to ensure
they can evacuate Head Start centers in
an orderly fashion in the event of a
disaster or public health emergency.
OHS must ensure that contingency
plans are in place prior, during and after
a nationally declared disaster; and, that
Head Start programs have arrangements
(memorandums of understanding) with
other community based organizations
for shelter in place at alternative
locations. The Presidential Policy
Directive–8 (PPD–8), which President
Obama signed in 2011, provides Federal
guidance and planning procedures
under established phases—Protection,
Preparedness, Response, Recovery, and
Mitigation. The data collected in the
Information Collection Form addresses
the areas of Response and Recovery.
Respondents: Head Start and Early
Head Start program grant recipients.

* The estimate above is based on a single disaster. The estimate is for a Head Start program with 1 center when all questions are applicable,
depending on the type of disaster all questions may not be applicable; therefore the burden hours may be shorter. For Head Start programs with
more than 1 center the burden hours may be longer. The number of respondents may increase based on the size of the disaster area.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 30 Minutes.
An estimate of the number of disasters
that would warrant data collection is
unavailable due to unpredictable nature
of disasters. For example, in 2012, there
were 95 disasters nationwide but ACF’s
Office of Human Services Emergency
Preparedness Response did not collect
data on all of them because they had
minimal effects on ACF programs.
In compliance with the requirements
of Section 506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the
Administration for Children and
Families is soliciting public comment
