registered pharmacists, familiar with the
use of CSTDs, tested the protocol’s
prescribed compounding and
administration tasks using five
commercially available CSTDs. They
also performed the assigned tasks using
a negative control condition without a
CSTD. Prescribed tasks were performed
in a NIOSH-developed environmental
test chamber with 70% isopropyl
alcohol (IPA) as the challenge agent. A
highly specific gas analyzer, with
measurement capabilities specific to
IPA and with a low limit of detection
(LOD), was used to detect vapor
concentrations of escaped IPA during
the tasks. The protocol is not intended
for CSTDs designed to operate using aircleaning technologies. This protocol has
multiple applications and can be used
by manufacturers to evaluate prototype
CSTDs, by consumers to compare CSTD
products, or by jurisdictions wishing to
adopt the protocol for a CSTD
performance certification procedure.
A panel consisting of peer reviewers
and stakeholders was asked to review
and comment on the draft guidance
document and protocol. NIOSH
reviewed the recommendations of the
peer reviewers and stakeholders then
made the final determination regarding
document content as well as the
decision not to propose a specific pass/
fail performance threshold. The protocol
is being published for comment in CDC–
2015–0075 and Docket Number NIOSH–
288 and can be found at
www.regulations.gov.

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.

PO 00000

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 without change
of a previously approved collection;
Title of Information Collection: Site
Investigation for Independent
Diagnostic Testing Facilities (IDTFs);
Use: We enroll Independent Diagnostic
Testing Facilities (IDTFs) into the
Medicare program via a uniform
application, the CMS 855B.
Implementation of enhanced procedures
for verifying the enrollment information
has improved the enrollment process as
well as identified and prevented
fraudulent IDTFs from entering the
Medicare program. As part of this
process, verification of compliance with
IDTF performance standards is
necessary. The primary function of the
site investigation form for IDTFs is to
provide a standardized, uniform tool to
gather information from an IDTF that
tells us whether it meets certain
standards to be a IDTF (as found in 42
CFR 410.33(g)) and where it practices or
renders its services. The site
investigation form has been used in the
past to aid in verifying compliance with
the required performance standards
found in 42 CFR 410.33(g). No revisions
have been made to this form since the
last submission for OMB approval. Form
Number: CMS–10221 (OMB Control
Number: 0938–1029); Frequency:
Occasionally; Affected Public: Private
Sector (Business or other for-profits and
Not-for-profit institutions); Number of
Respondents: 900; Total Annual
