Proposed Project
PERFORMANCE PROGRESS AND
EVALUATION REPORT (PPER)—
Existing Collection in use without an
OMB Control Number—Office of
Financial Resources (OFR), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Each year, approximately 80% of the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention’s (CDC) budget is distributed
via contracts, grants and cooperative
agreements, from the Procurements and
Grants Office (PGO) to partners
throughout the world to promote health,
prevent disease, injury and disability
and prepare for new health threats. PGO
is responsible for the stewardship of
these funds while providing excellent,
professional services to our partners and
stakeholders.
Currently, CDC uses SF–PPR (a
progress report form for Non-Research
awards) or other methods to collect
information semi-annually from
Awardees regarding the progress made
over specified time periods on CDC
funded projects. The SF–PPR (OMB
Control Number: 0970–0406, Expiration
Date: 10/31/2015) is owned by the
Administration for Children and
Families (ACF) within the Department
of Health and Human Services (HHS).
This ICR is being developed by CDC to
create a CDC-wide collection tool called
the Progress Performance and
Evaluation Report (PPER) that will be
used to collect data on the progress of
CDC Awardees for the purposes of
evaluation and to bring the Awardee
reporting procedure into compliance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA).
The information collected will enable
the accurate, reliable, uniform, and
timely submission to CDC, of each
Awardee’s work plans and progress
reports, including strategies, activities
and performance measures. The
information collected by the PPER is
designed to align with, and support the
goals outlined for each of the CDC
Awardees. Collection and reporting of
the information will occur in an
efficient, standardized, and userfriendly manner that will generate a
variety of routine and customizable
reports. The PPER will allow each
Awardee to summarize activities and
progress towards meeting performance
measures and goals over a specified
time period specific to each award. CDC
will also have the capacity to generate
reports that describe activities across
multiple Awardees. In addition, CDC
will use the information collection to
respond to inquiries from HHS,
Congress and other stakeholder
inquiries about program activities and
their impact. The total estimated burden
is 6,400 hours. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time.

Methodology
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
PO 00000

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.
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Medicare Credit
Balance Reporting Requirements; Use:
Quarterly credit balance reporting is
needed to monitor and control the
identification and timely collection of
improper payments. Credit balances are
mainly attributable to provider billing
practices and cannot be eliminated by
program functions; they will continue to
occur. The OIG issued a Management
Advisory Report (MAR) on their
extended review of credit balances (See
Attachment). They state that
approximately 90 percent of credit
balances result from providers: (1)
Billing Medicare and a private insurer
for the same service, (2) submitting
duplicate billings for services in a
manner which cannot be detected by
system edits, and (3) billing for services
not performed. The MAR recommends
that CMS continue its plan of recovery
by requiring hospitals to report
Medicare credit balances to contractors
on a quarterly basis. Form Number:
CMS–838 (OMB control number: 0938–
0600); Frequency: Quarterly; Affected
Public: Private sector (Business or other
For-profits); Number of Respondents:
52,582; Total Annual Responses:
210,328; Total Annual Hours: 630,984.
(For policy questions regarding this
collection contact Anita Crosier at 410–
786–0217).
2. Type of Information Collection
Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: HIPPA
Eligibility Tracking System; Use:
Federal law requires that CMS take
precautions to minimize the security
risk to the federal information system.
Federal Information Processing
Standards Publication (FIPS PUB) 1( )
1–2 Paragraph 11.7—Security and
Authentication states that: ‘‘Agencies
shall employ risk management
techniques to determine the appropriate
mix of security controls needed to
protect specific data and systems. The
selection of controls shall take into
account procedures required under
applicable laws and regulations.’’
Accordingly, CMS requires that entities
who wish to connect to the HETS
application via the CMS Extranet and/
or Internet are uniquely identified. CMS
is required to verify the identity of the
