summarizes the following proposed
collection(s) of information for public
comment:
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Reinstatement with change of a
previously approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Data Collection
for Medicare Beneficiaries Receiving
Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators
for Primary Prevention of Sudden
Cardiac Death; Use: We provide
coverage for implantable cardioverterdefibrillators (ICDs) for secondary
prevention of sudden cardiac death
based on extensive evidence showing
that use of ICDs among patients with a
certain set of physiologic conditions are
effective. Accordingly, we consider
coverage for ICDs reasonable and
necessary under Section 1862(a)(1)(A) of
the Social Security Act. However,
evidence for use of ICDs for primary
PO 00000
Frm 00083
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
prevention of sudden cardiac death is
less compelling for certain patients.
To encourage responsible and
appropriate use of ICDs, we issued a
‘‘Decision Memo for Implantable
Defibrillators’’ on January 27, 2005,
indicating that ICDs will be covered for
primary prevention of sudden cardiac
death if the beneficiary is enrolled in
either an FDA-approved category B IDE
clinical trial (42 CFR 405.201), a trial
under the CMS Clinical Trial Policy
(NCD Manual § 310.1) or a qualifying
prospective data collection system
(either a practical clinical trial or
prospective systematic data collection,
which is sometimes referred to as a
registry). Form Number: CMS–10151
(OMB control number: 0938–0967);
Frequency: Occasionally; Affected
Public: Business or other for-profits,
Not-for-profit institutions; Number of
Respondents: 1,600; Total Annual
Responses: 80,000; Total Annual Hours:
20,000. (For policy questions regarding
this collection contact JoAnna Baldwin
at 410–786–7205.)
2. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Data Collection
for Medicare Facilities Performing
Carotid Artery Stenting with Embolic
Protection in Patients at High Risk for
Carotid Endarterectomy; Use: We
provide coverage for carotid artery
stenting (CAS) with embolic protection
for patients at high risk for carotid
endarterectomy and who also have
symptomatic carotid artery stenosis
between 50 percent and 70 percent or
have asymptomatic carotid artery
stenosis ≥80 percent in accordance with
the Category B IDE clinical trials
regulation (42 CFR 405.201), a trial
under the CMS Clinical Trial Policy
(NCD Manual § 310.1, or in accordance
with the National Coverage
Determination on CAS post approval
studies (Medicare NCD Manual 20.7).
Accordingly, we consider coverage for
CAS reasonable and necessary (section
1862(A)(1)(a) of the Social Security Act).
However, evidence for use of CAS with
embolic protection for patients with
high risk for carotid endarterectomy and
who also have symptomatic carotid
artery stenosis ≥70 percent who are not
enrolled in a study or trial is less
compelling. To encourage responsible
and appropriate use of CAS with
embolic protection, we issued a
Decision Memo for Carotid Artery
Stenting on March 17, 2005, indicating
that CAS with embolic protection for
symptomatic carotid artery stenosis ≥70
percent will be covered only if
performed in facilities that have been
determined to be competent in
