CMS–10036—IRF–PAI for the
Collection of Data Pertaining to the
Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility
Prospective Payment System and
Quality Reporting Program
Under the 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
requires federal agencies to publish a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension or reinstatement of an existing
collection of information, before
submitting the collection to OMB for
approval. To comply with this
requirement, CMS is publishing this
notice.
Information Collection
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: IRF–PAI for the
Collection of Data Pertaining to the
Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility
Prospective Payment System and
Quality Reporting Program; Use: We are
requesting an extension of the Inpatient
Rehabilitation Facility-Patient
Assessment Instrument (IRF–PAI)
Version 4.0 that will be effective on
October 1, 2022. On November 2, 2021,
we issued a final rule (86 FR 62240)
which finalized proposed modifications
to the effective date for the reporting of
measures and certain standardized
patient assessment data in the Inpatient
Rehabilitation Facility Quality
Reporting Program (IRF QRP). Per the
final rule CMS will require IRFs to start
collecting assessment data using IRF–
PAI Version 4.0 beginning October 1,
2022.
The information collection request for
IRF PAI 4.0 was re-approved on
December 15, 2021 with an October 1,
2022 implementation date. CMS is
asking for an extension of the approved
IRF–PAI Version 4.0, which expires on
December 31, 2022. The burden
associated with this requirement is staff
time required to complete and encode
the data from the IRF–PAI. The burden
associated with collecting and
transmitting the data is unaffected by
the proposed extension to the
assessment instrument.
The IRF–PAI is required by the CMS
as part of the Inpatient Rehabilitation
Facility Prospective Payment System
(IRF PPS). CMS uses the data to
determine the payment for each
Medicare Part A fee-for-service patient
and Medicare Part C (Medicare
Advantage) admitted to an inpatient
rehabilitation unit or hospital. The IRF–
PAI is also used to gather data for the
IRF Quality Reporting Program (IRF
QRP). Form Number: CMS–10036 (OMB
control number: 0938–0842); Frequency:
Annually; Affected Public: Private
Sector: Business and for-profit and Notfor-profit, State, Local or Tribal
Government and Federal Government;
Number of Respondents: 1,122; Total
Annual Responses: 411,622; Total
Annual Hours: 704,747. For policy
questions regarding this collection,
contact Ariel Adams at 410–786–8571.)
