The mission of the Office of Prescription Drug Promotion (OPDP) is to protect the public health by helping to ensure that prescription drug promotional material is truthful, balanced, and accurately communicated so that patients and health care providers can make informed decisions about treatment options. OPDP’s research program provides scientific evidence to help ensure that our policies related to prescription drug promotion will have the greatest benefit to public health. Toward that end, we have consistently conducted research to evaluate the aspects of prescription drug promotion that are most central to our mission, focusing in particular on three main topic areas: advertising features, including content and format; target populations; and research quality. Through the evaluation of advertising features, we assess how elements such as graphics, format, and the characteristics of the disease and product impact the communication and understanding of prescription drug risks and benefits.

CMS 10853 Patient Provider Dispute Resolution Requirements Related to 
Surprise Billing: Part II

    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: New collection (Request 
for a new OMB control number); Title of Information Collection: Patient 
Provider Dispute Resolution Requirements Related to Surprise Billing: 
Part II; Use: The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (CAA), which 
includes the No Surprises Act provides Federal protections against 
surprise billing and limits out-of-network cost sharing under many of 
the circumstances in which surprise bills arise most frequently.
    The Act adds a new Part E of title XXVII of the Public Health 
Service Act establishing requirements applicable to providers, and 
facilities. These include provisions at new PHS Act sections 2799B-6 
which requires providers and facilities to furnish a good faith 
estimate of expected charges upon request or upon scheduling an item or 
service for an individual. Providers and facilities are required to 
inquire if an individual is enrolled in a group health plan, group or 
individual health insurance coverage, a Federal Employees Health 
Benefits (FEHB) plan, or a Federal health care program and if enrolled 
in a group health plan, or group or individual health insurance 
coverage, or a health benefits plan under chapter 89 of title 5, 
whether the individual is seeking to have a claim for such item or 
service submitted to such plan or coverage (hereafter referred to as an 
``uninsured (or self-pay) individual''). In the case that an uninsured 
(or self-pay) individual requesting a good faith estimate for an item 
or service or schedules an item or service to be furnished, PHS Act 
section 2799B-6(2)(B) and the October 2021 interim final rules at 45 
CFR 149.610 require providers and facilities to furnish the good faith 
estimate to the uninsured (or self-pay) individual.
    No Surprises Act section 112 also adds PHS Act section 2799B-7 as 
added by the interim final rules at 45 CFR 149.620 which directs the 
Secretary of HHS to establish a process under which an uninsured (or 
self-pay) individual can avail themselves of a patient-provider dispute 
resolution (PPDR) process if their billed charges after receiving an 
item or service are substantially in excess of the expected charges 
listed in the good faith estimate furnished by the provider or 
facility, pursuant to PHS Act section 2799B-6. This information 
collection request (ICR) focuses on the patient-provider dispute 
resolution process requirements under the October 2021 interim final 
rules (October 7, 2021, 86 FR 55980).
