Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 53 / Tuesday, March 19, 2019 / Notices
To be recognized as minimum essential
coverage, the coverage must offer
substantially the same consumer
protections as those enumerated in the
Title I of Affordable Care Act relating to
non-grandfathered, individual health
insurance coverage to ensure consumers
are receiving adequate coverage. The
final rule requires sponsors of other
coverage that seek to have such coverage
recognized as minimum essential
coverage to adhere to certain
procedures. Sponsoring organizations
must submit to HHS certain information
about their coverage and an attestation
that the plan substantially complies
with the provisions of Title I of the
Affordable Care Act applicable to nongrandfathered individual health
insurance coverage. Sponsors must also
provide notice to enrollees informing
them that the plan has been recognized
as minimum essential coverage for the
purposes of the individual coverage
requirement. Form Number: CMS–
10465 (OMB control number 0938–
1189); Frequency: Occasionally;
Affected Public: Public and private
sectors; Number of Respondents: 10;
Total Annual Responses: 10; Total
Annual Hours: 52.5. (For policy
questions regarding this collection
contact Russell Tipps at 301–492–4371.)
3. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: State-based
Exchange Annual Report Tool
(SMART); Use: The annual report is the
primary vehicle to insure
comprehensive compliance with all
reporting requirements contained in the
Affordable Care Act (ACA). It is
specifically called for in Section
1313(a)(1) of the Act which requires an
State Based Exchange (including an
Exchange using the Federal Platform) to
keep an accurate accounting of all
activities, receipts, and expenditures,
and to submit a report annually to the
Secretary concerning such accounting.
CMS will use the information collected
from States to assist in determining if a
State is maintaining a compliant
operational Exchange. Form Number:
CMS–10507 (OMB control number
0938–1244); Frequency: Annually;
Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal
governments; Number of Respondents:
17; Total Annual Responses: 17; Total
Annual Hours: 3,415. (For policy
questions regarding this collection
contact Christy Woods at 301–492–
5140.)
4. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved information collection; Title
of Information Collection: Agent/Broker
Data Collection in Federally-Facilitated
Health Insurance Exchanges; Use: The
Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act, Public Law 111–148, enacted on
March 23, 2010, and the Health Care
and Education Reconciliation Act,
Public Law 111–152, enacted on March
30, 2010 (collectively, ‘‘Affordable Care
Act’’), expands access to health
insurance for individuals and
employees of small businesses through
the establishment of new Affordable
Insurance Exchanges (Exchanges), also
called Marketplaces, including the
Small Business Health Options Program
(SHOP). Revised requirements
pertaining to agents/brokers completing
Federally-facilitated Exchange (FFE)
registration are discussed in the final
rule published on February 27, 2015 for
the Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act; HHS Notice of Benefit and
Payment Parameters for 2016 (CMS–
9944–F). These updated requirements
direct agents/brokers to submit
additional fields related to basic contact
information and National Producer
Number (NPN). Current state licensure
and relevant health lines of authority
(LOA) are then validated using the
National Insurance Producer Registry
(NIPR) database. Form Number: CMS–
10464 (OMB control number 0938–
1204); Frequency: Annually; Affected
Public: Private Sector (Business or other
for-profits); Number of Respondents:
52,000; Total Annual Responses:
52,000; Total Annual Hours: 12,480.
