Information Collection
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Indirect Medical
Education and Supporting Regulations;
Use: Section 1886(d)(5)(B) of the Social
Security Act requires additional
payments to be made under the
Medicare Prospective Payment System
(PPS) for the indirect medical
educational costs a hospital incurs in
connection with interns and residents
(IRs) in approved teaching programs. In
addition, Title 42, Part 413, sections 75

through 83 implement section 1886(d)
of the Act by establishing the
methodology for Medicare payment of
the cost of direct graduate medical
educational activities. These payments,
which are adjustments (add-ons) to
other payments made to a hospital
under PPS, are largely determined by
the number of full-time equivalent (FTE)
IRs that work at a hospital during its
cost reporting period. In Federal fiscal
year (FY) 2015, the estimated Medicare
program payments for indirect medical
education (IME) costs amounted to
$8.38 billion. Medicare program
payments for direct graduate medical
education (GME) are also based upon
the number of FTE–IRs that work at a
hospital. In FY 2015, the estimated
Medicare program payments for GME
costs amounted to $3.1 billion. Form

In
compliance with PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3520), the Administration for
Community Living (ACL, formerly the
Administration for Aging) has submitted
the following proposed collection of
information to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance. The
Administration for Community Living/
Administration on Aging (ACL/AoA) is
requesting approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to
complete data collection associated with
the Outcome Evaluation of the Title III–
C Nutrition Services Program. ACL is
requesting to renew an existing
clearance to complete 12 month follow
up data collection that was initially
approved under OMB Control Number:
0985–0037. The Title III–C Elderly
Nutrition Services Program (ENSP)
represents a key component of
America’s strategy for ensuring that the
needs of elderly people are adequately
met. The overall evaluation of the Title
III–C Program has three broad
objectives: (1) To provide information to
support program planning, including an
analysis of program processes (process
evaluation), (2) to develop information
about program efficiency and cost issues
(cost study), and (3) to assess program
effectiveness, as measured by the
program’s effects on a variety of
important outcomes, including nutrient
adequacy, socialization opportunities,
health outcomes, and, ultimately,
helping elderly people avoid
institutionalization (outcome
evaluation). The renewal is to complete
the data collection related to objective 3.
The total burden estimate for the
remaining data collection is: 144 hours.
The proposed data collection tools may
be found on the ACL Web site at: https://
www.aoa.acl.gov/Program_Results/
Program_survey.aspx.
