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–10224 Healthcare Common
Procedure Coding System (HCPCS)—
Level II Code Modification Request
Process
CMS–222–92 Independent Rural
Health Center/Freestanding Federally
Qualified Health Center Cost Report
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.

Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Healthcare
Common Procedure Coding System
(HCPCS)—Level II Code Modification
Request Process; Use: In October 2003,
the Secretary of Health and Human
Services (HHS) delegated authority
under the Health Insurance Portability
and Accountability Act (HIPAA)

legislation to Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services (CMS) to maintain
and distribute HCPCS Level II Codes. As
stated in 42 CFR Sec. 414.40 (a) CMS
establishes uniform national definitions
of services, codes to represent services,
and payment modifiers to the codes.
The HCPCS codeset has been
maintained and distributed via
modifications of codes, modifiers and
descriptions, as a direct result of data
received from applicants. Thus,
information collected in the application
is significant to codeset maintenance.
The HCPCS codeset maintenance is an
ongoing process, as changes are
implemented and updated annually;
therefore, the process requires continual
collection of information from
applicants on an annual basis. As new
technology evolves and new devices,
drugs and supplies are introduced to the
market, applicants submit applications
to CMS requesting modifications to the
HCPCS Level II codeset. Applications
have been received prior to HIPAA
implementation and must continue to
be collected to ensure quality decisionmaking. The HIPAA of 1996 required
CMS to adopt standards for coding
systems that are used for reporting
health care transactions. The regulation
that CMS published on August 17, 2000
(45 CFR 162.10002) to implement the
HIPAA requirement for standardized
coding systems established the HCPCS
Level II codes as the standardized
coding system for describing and
identifying health care equipment and
supplies in health care transactions.
HCPCS Level II was selected as the
standardized coding system because of
its wide acceptance among both public
and private insurers. Public and private
insurers were required to be in
compliance with the August 2000
regulation by October 1, 2002. Form
