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

collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, CMS is
publishing this notice that summarizes
the following proposed collection(s) of
information for public comment:
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title: Solicitation
for Applications for Medicare
Prescription Drug Plan 2024 Contracts;
Use: Coverage for the prescription drug
benefit is provided through contracted
prescription drug plans (PDPs) or
through Medicare Advantage (MA)
plans that offer integrated prescription
drug and health care coverage (MA–PD
plans). Cost Plans that are regulated
under Section 1876 of the Social
Security Act, and Employer Group
Waiver Plans (EGWP) may also provide
a Part D benefit. Organizations wishing
to provide services under the
Prescription Drug Benefit Program must
complete an application, negotiate rates,
and receive final approval from CMS.
Existing Part D Sponsors may also
expand their contracted service area by
completing the Service Area Expansion
(SAE) application.
Collection of this information is
mandated in Part D of the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement, and
Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) in
Subpart 3. The application requirements
are codified in Subpart K of 42 CFR 423
entitled ‘‘Application Procedures and
Contracts with PDP Sponsors.’’
The information will be collected
under the solicitation of proposals from
PDP, MA–PD, Cost Plan, Program of AllInclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE),
and EGWP applicants. The collected
information will be used by CMS to: (1)
ensure that applicants meet CMS
requirements for offering Part D plans
(including network adequacy,
contracting requirements, and
compliance program requirements, as
described in the application), (2)
support the determination of contract
awards. Form Number: CMS–10137
(OMB Control Number: 0938–0936);
Frequency: Annually; Affected Public:
Private Sector, Business or other forprofit and not-for-profit institutions;
Number of Respondents: 783; Number
of Responses: 425 Total Annual Hours:
1,861. (For policy questions regarding
this collection contact Arianne
Spaccarelli at 410–786–5715.)
2. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title: Applications
for Part C Medicare Advantage, 1876
Cost Plans, and Employer Group Waiver
Plans to Provide Part C Benefits; Use:
Collection of this information is
mandated by the Code of Federal
Regulations, MMA, and CMS
PO 00000
Frm 00042

regulations at 42 CFR 422, subpart K, in
‘‘Application Procedures and Contracts
for Medicare Advantage Organizations.’’
In addition, the Medicare Improvement
for Patients and Providers Act of 2008
(MIPPA) further amended titles XVII
and XIX of the Social Security Act.
This information collection includes
the process for organizations wishing to
provide healthcare services under MA
plans. These organizations must
complete an application annually (if
required), file a bid, and receive final
approval from CMS. The MA
application process has two options for
applicants that include (1) request for
new MA product or (2) request for
expanding the service area of an existing
product. CMS utilizes the application
process as the means to review, assess
and determine if applicants are
compliant with the current
requirements for participation in the
MA program and to make a decision
related to contract award. This
collection process is the only
mechanism for organizations to
complete the required MA application
process. Form Number: CMS–10237
(OMB Control Number: 0938–0935);
Frequency: Annually; Affected Public:
Private Sector, Business or other forprofit and not-for-profit institutions;
Number of Respondents: 500; Number

CMS–10628—Initial Request for State
Implemented Moratorium Form
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: Reinstatement of a previously
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Initial Request
for State Implemented Moratorium
Form; Use: Congress has enacted section
1866 (j)(7) of the Social Security Act,
which allows for the imposition of
temporary moratorium. CMS
promulgated 42 CFR 424.570 in order to
comply with that statute, which requires
that prior to implementing state
Medicaid moratoria the state Medicaid
agency must notify the Secretary in
writing, including all of the details of
the moratoria, and obtain the Secretary’s
concurrence with the imposition of the
moratoria.
The Initial Request for State Medicaid
Implemented Moratorium, named the
‘‘Initial Request for State Medicaid
Implemented Moratorium’’ has been
created to collect that data, in a uniform
manner, which the states report to CMS
when they request a moratorium.
Currently, CMS is collecting this data on
an ad-hoc basis, however this process
needs to be standardized so that
moratoria decisions are being made
based on the same criteria each time.
The form may be used by states and
territories who wish to impose a
Medicaid or Children’s Health
Insurance Program moratorium. CMS
will use this information as a
standardized method to collect and
track state-imposed moratoria requests.
