FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
The
Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (5
U.S.C. 552a) provides certain
protections for individuals applying for
and receiving Federal benefits. The law
governs the use of computer matching
by Federal agencies when records in a
system of records (meaning, Federal
agency records about individuals
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

01NON1
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 210 / Wednesday, November 1, 2023 / Notices
retrieved by name or other personal
identifier) are matched with records of
other Federal or non-Federal agencies.
The Privacy Act requires agencies
involved in a matching program to:
1. Enter into a written agreement,
which must be prepared in accordance
with the Privacy Act, approved by the
Data Integrity Board of each source and
recipient Federal agency, provided to
Congress and the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB), and made available
to the public, as required by 5 U.S.C.
552a(o), (u)(3)(A), and (u)(4).
2. Notify the individuals whose
information will be used in the
matching program that the information
they provide is subject to verification
through matching, as required by 5
U.S.C. 552a(o)(1)(D).
3. Verify match findings before
suspending, terminating, reducing, or
making a final denial of an individual’s
benefits or payments or taking other
adverse action against the individual, as
required by 5 U.S.C. 552a(p).
4. Report the matching program to
Congress and the OMB, in advance and
annually, as required by 5 U.S.C.

Authority for Conducting the Matching
Program
The principal authority for
conducting the matching program is 42
U.S.C. 18001, et seq.
Purpose(s)
The purpose of the matching program
is to provide CMS with DoD data
verifying individuals’ eligibility for
coverage under a DoD Health Benefit
Plan (i.e., TRICARE), when requested by
CMS and state-based administering
entities (AE) for the purpose of
determining the individuals’ eligibility
for insurance affordability programs
under the Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act (PPACA). CMS and
the requesting AE will use the DoD data
VerDate Sep<11>2014
19:48 Oct 31, 2023
Jkt 262001
to determine whether an enrollee in
private health coverage under a
qualified health plan through a
federally-facilitated or state-based
health insurance exchange is eligible for
coverage under TRICARE, and the dates
the individual was eligible for TRICARE
coverage. DoD health benefit plans
provide minimum essential coverage
(MEC), and eligibility for such plans
precludes eligibility for financial
assistance in paying for private
coverage. CMS and AE will use the DoD
data to authenticate identity, determine
eligibility for financial assistance
(including an advance tax credit and
cost-sharing reduction, which are types
of insurance affordability programs),
and determine the amount of any
financial assistance.
Categories of Individuals
The categories of individuals whose
information is involved in the matching
program are: (1) active duty service
members and their family members and
(2) retirees and their family members
whose TRICARE eligibility records at
DoD match data provided to DoD by
CMS (submitted by AEs) about
individual consumers who are applying
for or are enrolled in private health
insurance coverage under a qualified
health plan through a federallyfacilitated or state-based health
insurance exchange.

program are disclosed from these
systems of records, as authorized by
routine uses published in the System of
