After publication of the notice, the DOL discovered that the information provided in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section contained several errors. DOL is issuing this correction to provide the correct information. ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:10 Mar 25, 2024 Jkt 262001 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Anjanette Suggs, Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs, OWCP, at suggs.anjanette@dol.gov (email); (202) 354–9660 (phone). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Correction In FR. Doc. 2024–01535 appearing at 89 FR 5263 in the Federal Register of Friday, January 26, 2024, on page 5264, in the third column, the following corrections are made to the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section, I. Background subsection: 1. The first four full paragraphs of that third column are corrected to read as follows: OWCP believes that the the two forms used to monitor compound and opiate medication further strengthens medical management procedures for prescription drugs, assist our stakeholders in controlling costs afrom medically unnecessary treatements, and lessens the impact of potential drug addiction and medical fraud. However, OWCP is bifurcating the CA–26 from this collection so that it may be transferred to 1240–0NEW where it will be renamed OWCP–26. (The OWCP–26 will be updated to be applicable in all of OWCP’s program areas; otherwise, it will remain the same. The public and stakeholders for all programs will have opportunity to comment on the new form with the upcoming publication of the 60-day Federal Register Notice for 1240–0NEW.) A major goal of the FECA program is to return an injured employee back to employment as soon as medically feasible. The CA–27 form is a means for injured workers to continue receiving opiod drugs only where medically necessary and simultaneously gives OWCP greater oversight in monitoring opioid use. OWCP has issued regulations relating to its authority to require prior authorization for medical treatment which will now be applied through the CA–27 to opioids. (20 CFR 10.310, 10.800 & 10.809). Requiring Prior Authorization will assist OWCP in determining whether the prescribed medication will assist in curing, giving relief, and lessening the degree of disability. FECA further provides OWCP the authority to conduct such investigation as necessary before making an award of compensation (including the need for medical treatment by certain prescription drugs). 5 U.S.C. 8124(a)(2). Finally, 5 U.S.C. 8149 provides OWCP the authority to prescribe rules and regulations necessary for the administration of FECA. PO 00000 Frm 00075 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 As such, the CA–27, Authorization Request form and Certification/Letter of Medical Necessity or Opioid Medications, fulfill these requirements and obligations under the FECA. 2. On page 5265, in the first column, the following corrections are made to the summary of the collection contained in subsection III. Current Actions: Type of Review: Revision.

ACTION: Request for public comments. AGENCY: The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance request for comment to provide the general public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This request helps to ensure that: requested data can be provided in the desired format; reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized; collection instruments are clearly understood; and the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, OWCP is soliciting comments on the information collection for Authorization Request Form and Certification/Letter of Medical Necessity for Compounded Drugs (OWCP–26). DATES: All comments must be received on or before May 28, 2024. ADDRESSES: You may submit comment as follows. Please note that late, untimely filed comments will not be considered. SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00076 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 In 2013, the President of the United States, Barack Obama, signed a law, which provides greater federal oversight over compounding pharmacies that custom mix medication in bulk for patients who may benefit from prescriptions that are specific to their individual medical needs. See Compounding Quality Act, Public Law 113–54, 127 Stat. 587 (2013). Compounded drugs have two or more ingredients and are offered as an alternative to Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved medications that do not meet an individual patient’s health needs, such as when a patient has an allergy that requires a medication to be made without a certain dye. See Compounding and the FDA: Questions and Answers, https://www.fda.gov/ Drugs/GuidanceComplianceRegulatory Information/PharmacyCompounding/ ucm339764.htm. Compounded drugs are not FDAapproved. This means that the FDA does not verify the safety or effectiveness of compounded drugs. Consumers and health professionals rely on the drug approval process to ensure that drugs are safe and effective, and made in accordance with Federal quality standards. Compounded drugs also lack an FDA finding of manufacturing quality before they are marketed. Health risks associated with compounded drugs include the use of ingredients that may be sub- or superpotent, contaminated, or otherwise adulterated. Additionally, patients may use ineffective compounded drugs instead of FDA-approved drugs, which have been shown to be safe and effective. E:\FR\FM\26MRN1.SGM 26MRN1
