from the DUR annual reports. Form

quarterly, and occasionally; Affected
Public: State, Local, or Tribal
Governments; Number of Respondents:
51; Total Annual Responses: 510; Total

2. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection. Title of
Information Collection: Medicaid
Statistical Information System (MSIS)
and Transformed—Medicaid Statistical
Information System (T–MSIS); Use: The
data reported in MSIS/T–MSIS are used
by federal, state, and local officials, as
well as by private researchers and
corporations to monitor past and
projected future trends in the Medicaid
program. These data provide the only
national level information available on
enrollees, beneficiaries, and
expenditures. They also provide the
only national level information
available on Medicaid utilization. This
information is the basis for analyses and
for cost savings estimates for the
Department’s cost sharing legislative
initiatives to Congress. The collected
data are also crucial to our actuarial
forecasts. Form Number: CMS–R–284
(OMB control number: 0938–0345);
Frequency: Quarterly and monthly;
Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal
Governments; Number of Respondents:

Title: Child Care and Development
Fund Financial Report (ACF 696) for
States and Territories.
OMB No.: 0970–0163.
Description: States and Territories use
the Financial Report Form ACF–696 to
report Child Care and Development
Fund (CCDF) expenditures. Authority to
collect and report this information is
found in section 658G of the Child Care
and Development Block Grant Act of
1990, as revised. In addition to the
Program Reporting Requirements set
forth in 45 CFR part 98, subpart H, the
regulations at 45 CFR 98.65(g) and
98.67(c)(1) authorize the Secretary to
require financial reports as necessary.
The form provides specific data
regarding claims and provides a
mechanism for States to request Child
Care grant awards and to certify the
availability of State matching funds.
Failure to collect this data would
seriously compromise ACF’s ability to
monitor Child Care and Development
Fund expenditures. This information is
also used to estimate outlays and may
be used to prepare ACF budget
submissions to Congress.
ACF has not made substantive
revisions to the reporting form itself, but
has revised the accompanying
instructions to provide more detailed
guidance to assist grantees with
completing the form.
Respondents: States and Territories.
