Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request, 34648-34649 [2015-14814]

Download as PDF 34648 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 116 / Wednesday, June 17, 2015 / Notices 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. Information Collection 1. Type of Information Collection Request: New collection (Request for a new OMB control number); Title of Information Collection: Off-cycle Submission of Summaries of Model of Care Changes; Use: All Medicare Advantage (MA) Special Needs Plans (SNPs) must be approved by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA). The SNPs must submit Models of Care (MOC) as a component of the Medicare Advantage application process. Approval is based on NCQA’s evaluation of SNPs using MOC scoring guidelines. Based on their scores, SNPs receive an approval for a period of 1-, 2-, or 3-years. We are developing an MOC off-cycle revision process so that SNPs can revise the MOC to modify its processes and strategies for providing care during their MOC approval period. We will require that SNPs submit summaries of their MOC revisions to CMS for NCQA evaluation when a SNP makes significant changes to its MOC as described in the annual Announcement of Medicare Capitation Rates and Medicare Advantage and Part D Payment Policies and Final Call letter for CY 2015 and CY2016. The NCQA will review the summary of changes to verify that the revisions are consistent with the acceptable, high quality standards as included in the original approved MOC. Form Number: CMS– 10565 (OMB control number 0938New); Frequency: Occasionally; Affected Public: Private sector (Business or other for-profits and Not-for-profit institutions); Number of Respondents: 313; Total Annual Responses: 62; Total Annual Hours: 252.

OMB No.: 0970–0407. Description: The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) reimburses, to the extent of available appropriations, certain non-federal costs for the provision of cash and medical assistance to refugees and other eligible persons, along with allowable expenses for the administration of the refugee resettlement program at the State level. States, Wilson/Fish projects (alternative projects for the administration of the refugee resettlement program), and State Replacement Designees currently submit the ORR–2 Financial Status Report in accordance with 45 CFR part 92 and 45 CFR part 74. This proposed data collection would collect financial status data (i.e., amounts of expenditures and obligations) broken down by the four program components: refugee cash assistance, refugee medical assistance, health screening, and services for unaccompanied refugee minors as well as by program administration. This breakdown of financial status data on expenditures and obligations allows ORR to track program expenditures in greater detail to anticipate any funding issues and to meet the requirements of ORR regulations at 45 CFR 400.211 to collect these data for use in estimating annual costs of the refugee resettlement program. ORR must implement the methodology at 45 CFR 400.211 each year after receipt of its annual appropriation to ensure that the appropriated funds will be adequate for assistance to entering refugees. The estimating methodology prescribed in the ORR regulations requires the use of actual past costs by program component. In the event that the methodology indicates that appropriated funds are inadequate, ORR must take steps to reduce federal expenses, such as by limiting the number of months of eligibility for Refugee Cash Assistance and Refugee Medical Assistance. This proposed single-page report on expenditures and obligations will allow ORR to collect the necessary data to ensure that funds are adequate for the projected need and thereby meet the requirements of both the Refugee Act and ORR regulations.

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Office of Refugee Resettlement Cash and Medical Assistance 
Program Quarterly Report on Expenditures and Obligations.
    OMB No.: 0970-0407.
    Description: The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) reimburses, 
to the extent of available appropriations, certain non-federal costs 
for the provision of cash and medical assistance to refugees and other 
eligible persons, along with allowable expenses for the administration 
of the refugee resettlement program at the State level. States, Wilson/
Fish projects (alternative projects for the administration of the 
refugee resettlement program), and State Replacement Designees 
currently submit the ORR-2 Financial Status Report in accordance with 
45 CFR part 92 and 45 CFR part 74. This proposed data collection would 
collect financial status data (i.e., amounts of expenditures and 
obligations) broken down by the four program components: refugee cash 
assistance, refugee medical assistance, health screening, and services 
for unaccompanied refugee minors as well as by program administration. 
This breakdown of financial status data on expenditures and obligations 
allows ORR to track program expenditures in greater detail to 
anticipate any funding issues and to meet the requirements of ORR 
regulations at 45 CFR 400.211 to collect these data for use in 
estimating annual costs of the refugee resettlement program. ORR must 
implement the methodology at 45 CFR 400.211 each year after receipt of 
its annual appropriation to ensure that the appropriated funds will be 
adequate for assistance to entering refugees. The estimating 
methodology prescribed in the ORR regulations requires the use of 
actual past costs by program component. In the event that the 
methodology indicates that appropriated funds are inadequate, ORR must 
take steps to reduce federal expenses, such as by limiting the number 
of months of eligibility for Refugee Cash Assistance and Refugee 
Medical Assistance. This proposed single-page report on expenditures 
and obligations will allow ORR to collect the necessary data to ensure 
that funds are adequate for the projected need and thereby meet the 
requirements of both the Refugee Act and ORR regulations.
