General Description of Collection:
Section 32 of the FDIA (12 U.S.C. 1831i)
requires an insured depository
institution or depository institution
holding company under certain
circumstances to notify the appropriate
federal banking agency of the proposed
addition of any individual to the board
of directors or the employment of any
individual as a senior executive officer
of such institution at least 30 days
before such addition or employment
becomes effective. Section 32 of the
FDIA also provides that the FDIC may
disapprove an individual’s service as a
director or senior executive officer of
certain state nonmember banks or state
savings associations if, upon assessing
the individual’s competence,
experience, character, and integrity, it is
determined that the individual’s service
would not be in the best interest of the
depositors of the institution or the
public. The Interagency Notice of
Change in Director or Senior Executive
Officer, with the information contained
in the Interagency Biographical and
Financial Report (described above) as an
attachment, is used by the FDIC to
collect information relevant to assess
the individual’s competence,
experience, character, and integrity.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (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 (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)) requires federal agencies
to publish a 30-day notice in the
Federal Register concerning each

the following proposed collection(s) of
information for public comment:
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Business
Proposal Forms for Quality
Improvement Organizations (QIOs); Use:
The submission of proposal information
by current quality improvement
associations (QIOs) and other bidders,
on the appropriate forms, will satisfy
our need for meaningful, consistent, and
verifiable data with which to evaluate
contract proposals. We use the data
collected on the forms associated with
this information collection request to
negotiate QIO contracts. We will be able
to compare the costs reported by the
QIOs on the cost reports to the proposed
costs noted on the business proposal

forms. Subsequent contract and
modification negotiations will be based
on historic cost data. The business
proposal forms will be one element of
the historical cost data from which we
can analyze future proposed costs. In
addition, the business proposal format
will standardize the cost proposing and
pricing process among all QIOs. With
well-defined cost centers and line items,
proposals can be compared among QIOs
for reasonableness and appropriateness.

Annually; Affected Public: Business or
other for-profits and Not-for-profit
institutions; Number of Respondents:

Specifically, we use the information
collected on this form in evaluating the
Medicare psychiatric hospital program.
The form is also used for audit
purposes; determining patient
population and characteristics of the
hospital; and survey term composition.

Information Collection: Community
Mental Health Center Cost Report Use:
CMS requires the Form CMS–2088–17
to determine a provider’s reasonable
cost incurred in furnishing medical
services to Medicare beneficiaries and
reimbursement due to or from a
provider. In addition, CMHCs may
receive reimbursement through the cost
report for Medicare reimbursable bad
debts. CMS uses the Form CMS–2088–
17 for rate setting; payment refinement
activities, including market basket

cost report is to determine provider
reimbursement for services rendered to
Medicare beneficiaries. Each CMHC
submits the cost report to its contractor
for reimbursement determination.
Section 1874A of the Act describes
the functions of the contractor. CMHCs
must follow the principles of cost
reimbursement, which require they
maintain sufficient financial records
and statistical data for proper
determination of costs. The S series of
worksheets collects the provider’s
location, CBSA, date of certification,
operations, and unduplicated census
days. The A series of worksheets
collects the provider’s trial balance of
expenses for overhead costs, direct
patient care services, and non-revenue
generating cost centers. The B series of
worksheets allocates the overhead costs
to the direct patient care and nonrevenue generating cost centers using
functional statistical bases. The
Worksheet C computes the
apportionment of costs between
Medicare beneficiaries and other
patients. The D series of worksheets are
Medicare specific and calculate the
reimbursement settlement for services
rendered to Medicare beneficiaries. The
Worksheet F collects the provider’s
revenues and expenses data from the
provider’s income statement. Form

enrollee’s request for termination of Part
B and/or premium Part A coverage.
Sections 1818(c)(5), 1818A(c)(2)(B)
and 1838(b)(1) of the Act and
corresponding regulations at 42 CFR
406.28(a) and 407.27(c) require that a
Medicare enrollee wishing to

of Information Collection: CLIA
Collection of Information Requirements
Related to SARS–CoV–2 Test Results
Reporting; Use: In order to be in
compliance with the new CLIA
mandatory SARS–CoV–2 test results
reporting requirements, laboratories will
need to develop a mechanism to track,
collect, and report test results as well as
update policies and procedures. In
addition, Accreditation Organizations
(AOs) and Exempt States (ESs) will need
to update laboratory standards to reflect
the reporting requirements and update
policies and procedures related to
reporting laboratories that do not report
test results as required.
The CDC has an information
collection request (OMB Control
Number 0920–1299) in order to collect
laboratory data related to the COVID–19
Pandemic Response. The CMS package
(ICR) is for laboratory implementation
and CMS monitoring of compliance
with the CMS–3401–IFC CLIA-certified
laboratory reporting requirements.
The information collected by the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services (CMS) or its designee, such as
a CMS agent or CMS approved
laboratory accreditation organization,
when conducting inspections will be
used to determine a laboratory’s
compliance with the CLIA SARS–CoV–
2 test result reporting requirements.
During an on-site survey, the Conditionlevel laboratory requirement at 42 CFR
493.41and 493.1100(a) are assessed for
compliance. The information is used by
CMS in determining appropriate Civil
Money Penalties (CMPs) when
laboratories fail to report as required.
