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
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 that summarizes
the following proposed collection(s) of
information for public comment:
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Reinstatement with change of a
previously approved collection; Title:
Basic Health Program (BHP) Supporting
Regulations; Use: In accordance with
Section 1331 of the Patient Protection
and Affordability Care Act, Public Law
111–148 (ACA), BHP is federally funded
by determining the amount of payments
that the federal government would have
made through premium tax credits and
cost-sharing reductions for people
enrolled in BHP had they instead been
enrolled in an Exchange. States must
submit a BHP Blueprint to CMS for
certification prior to the state
implementing a BHP and must submit a
revised Blueprint in the event that a
state seeks to make significant changes
that alter program operations; the BHP
benefit package; or enrollment,
disenrollment, and verification policies
described in the Blueprint. Such States
must also submit a BHP annual report.
In addition to the reinstatement, this
2022 iteration proposes changes that are
associated with the March 12, 2014 (79
FR 14112) BHP final rule that have not
previously received PRA approval.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The final rule within 45
CFR part 309, published in the Federal
Register on March 30, 2004, contains a
regulatory reporting requirement that, in
order to receive funding for a Tribal IV–
D program, a tribe or tribal organization
must submit a plan describing how the
tribe or tribal organization meets or
plans to meet the objectives of section
455(f) of the Social Security Act,
including establishing paternity;
establishing, modifying, and enforcing
support orders; and locating
noncustodial parents. The plan is
required for all tribes requesting
funding; however, once a tribe has met
the requirements to operate a
comprehensive program, a new plan is
not required annually unless a tribe
makes changes to its title IV–D program.
If a tribe or tribal organization intends
to make any substantial or material
changes, a Tribal IV–D plan amendment
must be submitted for approval. Tribes
and tribal organizations must have an
approved plan and submit any required
plan amendments in order to receive
funding to operate a Tribal IV–D
program. With this request to extend
approval of this information collection,
OCSE is proposing a change to the
paperwork collection by providing
optional plan pages. The optional plan
pages organize the Tribal IV–D plan,
identify required attachments, and
streamline plan amendment
submissions. Tribes and tribal
organizations who choose to participate
will attest to complying with the
regulatory requirements in 45 CFR, Parts
309 and 310 and submit plan
amendments for changes to the required
attachments identified in the Table of
Contents. The optional plan pages
organize the Tribal IV–D plan, identify
required attachments, and streamline
plan amendment submissions.
Respondents: Tribes and tribal
Organizations.
