SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Patient Safety Act, 42 U.S.C.
299b–21 to 299b–26, and the related
Patient Safety Rule, 42 CFR part 3,
published in the Federal Register on
November 21, 2008, 73 FR 70732–
70814, establish a framework by which
individuals and entities that meet the
definition of provider in the Patient
Safety Rule may voluntarily report
information to PSOs listed by AHRQ, on
a privileged and confidential basis, for
the aggregation and analysis of patient
safety events.
The Patient Safety Act authorizes the
listing of PSOs, which are entities or
component organizations whose
mission and primary activity are to
conduct activities to improve patient
safety and the quality of health care
delivery.
HHS issued the Patient Safety Rule to
implement the Patient Safety Act.
AHRQ administers the provisions of the
Patient Safety Act and Patient Safety
Rule relating to the listing and operation
of PSOs. The Patient Safety Rule
authorizes AHRQ to list as a PSO an
entity that attests that it meets the
statutory and regulatory requirements
for listing. A PSO can be ‘‘delisted’’ if
it is found to no longer meet the
requirements of the Patient Safety Act
and Patient Safety Rule, when a PSO
chooses to voluntarily relinquish its
status as a PSO for any reason, or when
a PSO’s listing expires. Section 3.108(d)

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 87 / Tuesday, May 5, 2020 / Notices
of the Patient Safety Rule requires
AHRQ to provide public notice when it

PSOs.
AHRQ has accepted a notification of
proposed voluntary relinquishment
from ABG Anesthesia Data Group, LLC,
a component entity of Anesthesia
Business Group, LLC, to voluntarily
relinquish its status as a PSO.
Accordingly, ABG Anesthesia Data
Group, LLC, P0068, was delisted
effective at 12:00 Midnight ET (2400) on
April 29, 2020.
ABG Anesthesia Data Group, LLC has
patient safety work product (PSWP) in
its possession. The PSO will meet the
requirements of section 3.108(c)(2)(i) of
the Patient Safety Rule regarding
notification to providers that have
reported to the PSO and of section
3.108(c)(2)(ii) regarding disposition of
PSWP consistent with section
3.108(b)(3). According to section
3.108(b)(3) of the Patient Safety Rule,
the PSO has 90 days from the effective
date of delisting and revocation to
complete the disposition of PSWP that
is currently in the PSO’s possession.

the Annual Progress and Services
Report (APSR), and the Annual Budget
Expenses Request and Estimated
Expenditures (CFS–101) collection
(OMB #0970–0426, expiration 1/31/
2021). There are minor changes to the
APSR, the burden hours for the APSR,
and CFS–101 form.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of
publication. In compliance with the
requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
the Administration for Children and
Families is soliciting public comment
on the specific aspects of the
information collection described above.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed
collection of information can be
obtained and comments may be
forwarded by emailing infocollection@
acf.hhs.gov. Alternatively, copies can
also be obtained by writing to the
Administration for Children and
Families, Office of Planning, Research,

by the title of the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: Under title IV–B,
subparts 1 and 2, of the Social Security
Act (the Act), states, territories, and
tribes are required to submit a CFSP.
The CFSP lays the groundwork for a
system of coordinated, integrated, and
culturally relevant family services for
the subsequent five years (45 CFR
1357.15(a)(1)). The CFSP outlines
initiatives and activities the state, tribe
or territory will carry out in
administering programs and services to
promote the safety, permanency, and
well-being of children and families,
including, as applicable, those activities
SUMMARY:
conducted under the John H. Chafee
Foster Care Program for Successful
Transition to Adulthood (Section 477 of
the Act) and the state grant authorized
by the Child Abuse Prevention and
Treatment Act. By June 30 of each year,
states, territories, and tribes are also
required to submit an APSR and a
financial report called the CFS–101. The
APSR is a yearly report that discusses
progress made by a state, territory or
tribe in accomplishing the goals and
objectives cited in its CFSP (45 CFR
1357.16(a)). The APSR contains new
and updated information about service
needs and organizational capacities
throughout the five-year plan period
and, beginning with the submission due
on June 30, 2021, will also include
information on the use of the Family
First Transition Grants and Funding
Certainty Grants authorized by the
Family First Transition Act included in
Public Law (Pub. L.) 116–94. The CFS–
101 has three parts. Part I is an annual
budget request for the upcoming fiscal
year. Part II includes a summary of
planned expenditures by program area
for the upcoming fiscal year, the
estimated number of individuals or
families to be served, and the
geographical service area. Part III
includes actual expenditures by
program area, numbers of families and
individuals served by program area, and
the geographic areas served for the last
complete fiscal year. The revisions
made to the CFS–101 form are to
streamline the data entry and to remove
from Part III of the CFS–101 requests for
prior year estimates on use of funds that
are not required by law.
Respondents: States, territories, and
tribes must complete the CFSP, APSR,
and CFS–101. Tribes and territories are
exempted from the monthly caseworker
visits reporting requirement of the
CFSP/APSR. There are approximately
180 tribal entities that currently receive
IV–B funding. There are 53 states
(including the Commonwealth of Puerto
Rico, the District of Columbia, and the
Virgin Islands) that must complete the
CFSP, APSR, and CFS–101.
