The Office of Personnel
Management (OPM) offers the general
public and other federal agencies the
opportunity to comment on a proposed
information collection (ICR) 3206–NEW,
Consumer Assessment of Healthcare
Providers and Systems (CAHPS®). As
required by the Paperwork Reduction

for this collection. The information
collection was previously published in
the Federal Register on July 22, 2019 at
Volume 84 FR 35137 allowing for a 60day public comment period. We
received one comment from an
association of FEHB health plan carriers

days for public comments.
DATES: Comments are encouraged and
will be accepted until December 19,
2019. This process is conducted in
accordance with 5 CFR 1320.1.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management Budget,
725 17th Street NW, Washington, DC
20503, Attention: Desk Officer for the
Office of Personnel Management or sent
via electronic mail to oira_submission@
omb.eop.gov or faxed to (202) 395–6974.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: A
copy of this information collection, with
applicable supporting documentation,
may be obtained by contacting the
Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management Budget,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office
of Management and Budget is
particularly interested in comments
that:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
The Office of Personnel Management
(OPM) offers the general public and
other federal agencies the opportunity to
comment on the administration of the
CAHPS® survey for the Federal
Employees Health Benefits (FEHB)
Program. The CAHPS® surveys asks
consumers and patients to report on and
evaluate their experiences with health
care. These surveys cover topics that are
important to consumers and focus on
aspects of quality that consumers are
best qualified to assess, such as the
communication skills of providers and

ease of access to health care services.
OPM uses the CAHPS® results as part of
the FEHB Plan Performance Assessment
(PPA). The PPA enables a consistent,
objective evaluation of carrier
performance and also provides more
transparency for enrollees. This
assessment uses a discrete set of
quantifiable measures to examine key
aspects of performance in the areas of
clinical quality, customer service and
resource use. Eight CAHPS® measures
are part of this discrete set of
quantifiable measures.
Taken together with more traditional
assessments of contract administration,
these measures help ensure that
enrollees receive high quality affordable
healthcare and a positive customer
experience. The PPA is linked to carrier
profit and adjustment factors. FEHB
contracts include language to
incorporate the PPA as a determinant of
the Service Charge or Performance
Adjustment.
