This segregation plan is used to verify that the QHP issuer’s financial and other systems fully conform to the segregation requirements required by the PPACA. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is renewing this information collection request (ICR) in connection with the segregation plan requirement under 45 CFR 156.280(e)(5)(ii). The burden estimates for this collection of information renewal reflect the time and effort for QHP issuers to submit a segregation plan that demonstrates how the QHP issuer segregates QHP funds in accordance with applicable provisions of generally accepted accounting requirements, circulars on funds management of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and guidance on accounting of the Government Accountability Office. CMS is also renewing the ICR in connection with the annual attestation requirement under 45 CFR 156.280(e)(5)(iii). The burden estimate for this ICR reflects the time and effort associated with QHP issuers submitting an annual attestation to the State Insurance Commissioner attesting to compliance with section 1303 of the PPACA. Form Number: CMS–10400 (OMB control number: 0938–1156); Frequency: Annually); Affected Public: Private Sector (business or other for-profits, not-for-profits institutions); Number of Respondents: 1,617; Number of Responses: 1,617; Total Annual Hours: 5,508.75. (For questions regarding this collection, contact Agata Pelka at 667–290–9979). 2. Type of Information Collection Request: Extension without change of a currently approved collection; Title of Information Collection: Disclosure Requirement for the In-Office Ancillary Services Exception; Use: Section 6003 of the ACA established a disclosure requirement for the in-office ancillary services exception to the prohibition of physician self-referral for certain imaging services. This section of the ACA amended section 1877(b)(2) of the Social Security Act by adding a requirement that the referring physician informs the patient, at the time of the VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:13 Jun 13, 2024 Jkt 262001 referral and in writing, that the patient may receive the imaging service from another supplier. The implementing regulations are at 42 CFR 411.355(b)(7). Physicians who provide certain imaging services (MRI, CT, and PET) under the in-office ancillary services exception to the physician self-referral prohibition are required to provide the disclosure notice as well as the list of other imaging suppliers to the patient. The patient will then be able to use the disclosure notice and list of suppliers in making an informed decision about his or her course of care for the imaging service. CMS would use the collected information for enforcement purposes. Specifically, if we were investigating the referrals of a physician providing advanced imaging services under the inoffice ancillary services exception, we would review the written disclosure in order to determine if it satisfied the requirement.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The goals of the program are as follows: 1. Increase the number and type of innovations in PCTI care for Holocaust survivors, older adults with a history of trauma, and their family caregivers, and 2. Expand the capacity of the Aging Network to provide PCTI care to the populations it serves. The administrative supplement for FY 2024 will be in the amount of $3,454,500, bringing the total award for FY 2023 to $8,389,500.

Doing so will enable JFNA to expand the reach and effectiveness of this project by broadening the technical assistance and capacity building activities in the following ways: Æ Growth and partnerships are essential for PCTI approaches to take root. The supplement will be used to increase the ways in which this can be accomplished, including re-launching an Aging and Trauma Workgroup and an Educational Advisory Committee, ensuring the voices of Holocaust survivors, other older adults with histories of trauma and their family caregivers are represented; enabling the grantee to develop and implement an action plan to work with foundations. Æ Thought leadership in the field of PCTI care is greatly needed for it to take root as standard practice in the aging services network. The supplement will: (1) permit the expansion of the grantee’s PCTI training program; (2) provide the resources necessary to fund the development of a family caregiving roadmap to support PCTI approaches to implementing the National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers; and (3) further develop and expand the field and practice of PCTI evaluation approaches and practices already begun under this project, but on a limited basis. Æ Sustainability and efficiency are key to any demonstration project. The supplement will enable JFNA to explore technology enhancements to streamline the sub-grant management process, bring on additional staff to manage expanded expectations and work, including growth, and enhance program oversight, monitoring, evaluation, and additional activities proportional to the increased funding and expectations resulting from this supplement.

Since project implementation began in late 2020, the grantee has accomplished a great deal. This supplement will enable the grantee to carry their work even further, serving more Holocaust survivors, other older adults with histories of trauma, family caregivers and to train more professionals in the principles of PCTI.

project ``Expanding the National Capacity for Person-Centered, Trauma-
Informed (PCTI) Care: Services and Supports for Holocaust Survivors and 
Other Older Adults with a History of Trauma and Their Family 
Caregivers'' program. The purpose of this program is to advance the 
development and expansion of PCTI supportive services for Holocaust 
survivors living in the U.S. Additionally, the project is advancing the 
capacity of the broader aging services network to deliver services of 
this type to any older adult with a history of trauma and their family 
caregivers.

regarding this program supplement, contact Greg Link, U.S. Department 
of Health and Human Services, Administration for Community Living, 
Administration on Aging, Office of Supportive and Caregiver Services:
