This notice sets out a summary of the
use and burden associated with the
following information collections. More
detailed information can be found in
each collection’s supporting statement
and associated materials (see
ADDRESSES).
CMS–10400 Establishment of
Qualified Health Plans and
American Health Benefit Exchanges
Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3520), federal agencies must obtain
approval from the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct 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
requires federal agencies to publish a
60-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.
Information Collection
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Establishment of
Qualified Health Plans and American
Health Benefit Exchanges; Use: The
Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act, Public Law 111–148, enacted on
March 23, 2010, and the Health Care

and Education Reconciliation Act,
Public Law 111–152, enacted on March
30, 2010 (collectively, ‘‘Affordable Care
Act’’), expand access to health
insurance for individuals and
employees of small businesses through
the establishment of new Affordable
Insurance Exchanges (Exchanges),
including the Small Business Health
Options Program (SHOP).
As directed by the rule Establishment
of Exchanges and Qualified Health
Plans; Exchange Standards for
Employers (77 FR 18310) (Exchange
rule), each Exchange will assume
responsibilities related to the
certification and offering of Qualified
Health Plans (QHPs). To offer insurance
through an Exchange, a health insurance
issuer must have its health plans
certified as QHPs by the Exchange. A
QHP must meet certain minimum
certification standards, such as network
adequacy, inclusion of Essential
Community Providers (ECPs), and nondiscrimination. The Exchange is
responsible for ensuring that QHPs meet
these minimum certification standards
as described in the Exchange rule under
45 CFR 155 and 156, based on the
Affordable Care Act, as well as other
standards determined by the Exchange.
The reporting requirements and data
collection in the Exchange rule address
Federal requirements that various
entities must meet with respect to the
establishment and operation of an
Exchange; minimum requirements that
health insurance issuers must meet with
respect to participation in a State based
or Federally-facilitated Exchange; and
requirements that employers must meet
with respect to participation in the
SHOP and compliance with other
provisions of the Affordable Care Act.

Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
Title: Job Search Assistance (JSA)
Strategies Evaluation.
OMB No.: 0970–0440.
Description: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF) is
proposing a data collection activity as
part of the Job Search Assistance (JSA)
Strategies Evaluation. The JSA
evaluation aims to determine which JSA
strategies are most effective in moving
TANF applicants and recipients into
work. The impact study will randomly
assign individuals to contrasting JSA
approaches and then compare their
employment and earnings to determine
their relative effectiveness. The
implementation study will describe
services participants receive under each
approach as well as provide operational
lessons gathered directly from
practitioners.
Two data collection efforts have been
previously approved for JSA, including
one for data collection activities to
document program implementation, to
administer a staff survey and to collect
baseline information of program
participants. These collection activities
will continue under this new request.
This Federal Register Notice provides
the opportunity to comment on a
proposed new information collection
activity for JSA: A follow-up survey for
JSA participants approximately 6
months after program enrollment.
The purpose of the survey is to
follow-up with study participants and
document their job search assistance
services and experiences including their
receipt of job search assistance services,
their knowledge and skills for
conducting a job search, the nature of
their job search process, including tools
and services used to locate employment,
and their search outputs and outcomes,
such as the number of applications
submitted, interviews attended, offers
received and jobs obtained. In addition,
the survey will provide an opportunity
for respondents to provide contact data
for possible longer-term follow-up.
Respondents: JSA study participants
and program staff.
