SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: When submitting comments or requesting information, please include the ICR title for reference. Information Collection Request Title: Children’s Hospitals Graduate Medical Education Payment Program, OMB No. 0915–0247, Extension. Abstract: In 1999, the Children’s Hospitals Graduate Medical Education (CHGME) Payment Program was enacted by Public Law 106–129 and most recently amended by the Dr. Benjy Frances Brooks Children’s Hospitals Graduate Medical Education (GME) Support Reauthorization Act of 2018 (Pub. L. 115–241). The purpose of this program is to fund freestanding children’s hospitals to support the training of pediatric and other residents in GME programs. The legislation indicates that eligible children’s hospitals will receive payments for both direct and indirect medical education. Direct payments are designed to offset the expenses associated with operating approved graduate medical residency training programs; indirect payments are designed to compensate hospitals for expenses associated with the treatment of more severely ill patients and the additional costs relating to teaching residents in such programs. Need and Proposed Use of the Information: Data based on the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) residents in applicant children’s hospital training programs to determine the amount of direct and indirect medical education payments to be distributed to participating children’s hospitals. Indirect medical education payments will be derived from a formula that requires the reporting of discharges, beds, and case mix index information from participating children’s hospitals.
