You Handbook published each fall and

Beneficiaries can compare CAHPS
scores for each health and drug plan as
well as compare MA and FFS scores
when making enrollment decisions. The
Medicare CAHPS also provides data to
help CMS and others monitor the
quality and performance of Medicare
health and prescription drug plans and
identify areas to improve the quality of
care and services provided to enrollees
of these plans. CAHPS data are included
in the Medicare Part C & D Star Ratings
and used to calculate MA Quality Bonus
Payments. Form Number: CMS–R–246
(OMB control number: 0938–0732);
Frequency: Yearly; Affected Public:
Individuals and Households; Number of
Respondents: 794,500; Total Annual
Responses: 794,500; Total Annual
Hours: 192,265. (For policy questions
regarding this collection contact Lauren
Fuentes at 410–786–2290).
3. Type of Information Collection
Request: New collection (Request for
new OMB control number); Title of
Information Collection: End-stage Renal
Disease (ESRD) Quality Incentive
Program (QIP): Study of Quality and
Patient Experience; Use: The Centers for
Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)
oversees the quality of care provided by
dialysis facilities by administering the
Quality Incentive Program (QIP). As part
of the evaluation of this program, CMS
seeks to gain a deeper understanding of
emerging trends observed across the
dialysis landscape by conducting
qualitative data collection and analysis.
These primary qualitative data
collection activities seek to answer the
following research questions related to
dialysis quality, access to care, health
equity, and quality of life:
1. What aspects of patient dialysis
care do patients report as a priority?
2. How, if at all, do dialysis facilities
evaluate the quality of care they
provide?
3. What strategies do providers and
dialysis facilities use to improve access
to care for underserved populations?
4. What do patients, providers, and
stakeholder organizations believe
contributes to high quality of life for
patients with ESRD? Do perceptions
vary by respondent type or respondent
characteristics?
5. How do dialysis facilities measure
patient satisfaction and quality of life?
6. How do dialysis providers and
stakeholder organizations think quality
of life for dialysis patients has changed
over time? What was the impetus for
that change?
We are requesting to collect
information through in depth interviews
with stakeholders of the CMS end-stage

renal disease (ESRD) Quality Incentive
Program (QIP). The interviews will
collect data from individuals with
ESRD, dialysis facility administrators,
dialysis social workers, transplant
center administrators, corporate
representatives from dialysis
organizations, and patient advocacy
organizations.
This data collection seeks to answer
several research questions specific to
health outcomes for dialysis patients, as
measured by the QIP, that are not
available through current literature or
secondary data collection. In
preparation for this study, the
evaluation team conducted a scan of
peer-reviewed literature and document
review of previous ESRD QIP
monitoring and evaluation reports and
policy documents describing CMS
priorities. Based on the results from this
scan, the study team identified
persistent knowledge gaps and
opportunities for primary data
collection. Drawing on high-quality
data, empirical rigor, and knowledge of
nonprogrammatic factors, the evaluation
will benefit CMS by providing datadriven findings and recommendations
to improve patient care, reduce health
disparities, and promote health equity.
This primary data collection will
allow CMS to more comprehensively
understand the data being compiled and
analyzed quantitatively and will
provide more context related to dialysis
quality, quality of life of individuals
with ESRD, access to dialysis care, and
the patient experience, which are
current CMS priorities. Form Number:
CMS–10823 (OMB control number:
0938–NEW); Frequency: Once; Affected
Public: Private Sector (Business or other
for-profits, Not-for-Profit Institutions),
Individuals and Households; Number of
Respondents: 1,945; Total Annual
Responses: 1,945; Total Annual Hours:

Submission for OMB Review; 2024
National Survey of Early Care and
Education (OMB #: 0970–0391)
Office of Planning, Research,
and Evaluation, Administration for
Children and Families, U.S. Department
of Health and Human Services.
ACTION: Request for public comments.
AGENCY:
The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS), is proposing a data
collection activity as part of the 2024
National Survey of Early Care and
Education (NSECE) to be conducted
October 2023 through July 2024. The
objective of the 2024 NSECE is to
document the nation’s use and
availability of early care and education
(ECE) services, building on the
information collected in 2012 and 2019
to describe the ECE landscape in the
U.S. The 2024 NSECE will collect
information on families with children
under age 13 years, on ECE providers
that serve families with children from
birth to 13 years in the U.S., and on the
workforce providing these services.
DATES: Comments due within 30 days of
publication. The Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) must make a
decision about the collection of
information between 30 and 60 days
after publication of this document in the
Federal Register. Therefore, a comment
is best assured of having its full effect
if OMB receives it within 30 days of
publication.
SUMMARY:
Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/
PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the
search function. You can also obtain
copies of the proposed collection of
information by emailing
OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov.
Identify all requests by the title of the
information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The 2024 NSECE will
consist of four coordinated nationallyrepresentative surveys:
1. a survey of households with at least
one resident child under the age of 13
(Household Interview),

28557
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 86 / Thursday, May 4, 2023 / Notices
2. a survey of individuals providing
care for children under the age of 13 in
a residential setting (Home-based
Provider Interview) including
individuals appearing on state and
national lists of ECE providers (listed)
and individuals not appearing on such
lists (unlisted),
3. a survey of center-based ECE
providers offering care for children age
5 years and under, not yet in
kindergarten, in a non-residential
setting (Center-based Provider
Interview), and
4. a survey conducted with
individuals employed in center-based
ECE programs working directly with
children in classrooms serving children
age 5 years and under, not yet in
kindergarten (Workforce Interview).
The household, home-based provider,
and center-based provider surveys will
require a screener to determine
eligibility for the specific survey.
The 2024 NSECE data collection
efforts will provide urgently needed
information about the use and supply of
ECE available to families across all
income levels, including providers
serving low-income families of various
racial, ethnic, language, and cultural
backgrounds, in diverse geographic
areas. The household data will include
characteristics of households with
children under age 13, such as parental
employment status and schedules,
preferences and choices of non-parental
care, and other key factors that affect
their need for and access to ECE. The
provider data will include home-based
or center-based ECE providers (e.g.,
private, non-profit, Head Start-funded,
state or local Pre-K, or based in public
schools) that do or do not participate in
the child care subsidy program, and are
or are not regulated, registered, or
otherwise appear in state or national
lists. Accurate data on families with
young children and the availability and
characteristics of ECE providers are
essential to assess the current and
changing landscape of ECE since the
2019 NSECE data collection, and to
provide insights to advance policy and
initiatives in the ECE field. The two
previous rounds of NSECE, collected in
2012 and 2019, produced critical data
about providers of ECE services, the ECE
workforce, and families’ needs and use
of child care throughout the U.S. that
remain unmatched by other data sources
available.
Respondents: Households with
resident children under age 13, homebased ECE providers serving children
under age 13 (listed and unlisted),
center-based ECE providers serving
children age 5 and under (not yet in
kindergarten), and classroom-assigned
instructional staff (workforce) members
working with children age 5 and under
(not yet in kindergarten) in center-based
ECE programs.
