public can monitor the status of such
activities at reginfo.gov.
Following is a summary of the use
and burden associated with the subject
information collection(s). More detailed
information can be found in the
collection’s supporting statement and
associated materials (see ADDRESSES).
Generic Information Collection
1. Title of Information Collection:
Medicaid and Children’s Health
Insurance Program Eligibility Processing
Data Report; Type of Information
Collection Request: Revision of a
previously approved collection of
information request; Use: The COVID–
19 outbreak and implementation of
Federal policies to address the public
health emergency (PHE) disrupted
routine Medicaid, Children’s Health
Insurance Program (CHIP), and Basic
Health Program (BHP) eligibility and
enrollment operations. Medicaid and
CHIP enrollment grew to historic levels
due in large part to the Medicaid
continuous enrollment condition that
States implemented as a condition of
receiving a temporary Federal medical
assistance percentage (FMAP) increase
under section 6008 of the Families First
Coronavirus Response Act (Pub. L. 116–
127).
States have an obligation to conduct
redeterminations of eligibility for all
individuals enrolled in Medicaid and
CHIP in compliance with all existing
Federal requirements at 42 CFR 435.916
and 457.343. In March 2023, CMS
identified that 35 States were noncompliant with at least one Medicaid/
CHIP renewal requirement. To be
eligible for temporary increased funding
under the Consolidated Appropriations
Act (CAA, 2023), these States were
required to implement mitigation
strategies or take other steps before they
were able to begin unwinding. During
unwinding, several States were also
required to adopt mitigations when
CMS identified other issues (e.g., 29
States with the household auto-renewal
issue). As of June 2024, most States have
at least one outstanding area of noncompliance with Federal renewal
requirements.
It is critical that States ensure their
compliance with all Federal renewal
requirements to help individuals
eligible for Medicaid or CHIP
successfully renew their coverage. To
confirm compliance with these
regulations, CMS is providing a
template for States to indicate their
current compliance status with renewal
regulations, describe policies and
processes, and identify planned
mitigations for any identified

deficiencies. This template will be
completed once by States, with updates
provided as States with compliance
deficiencies inform CMS of progress and
come into compliance with
requirements.

Title of the Collection: Prevention
Communication Formative Research.
Type of Collection: Revision.
OMB No.: 0990–0281.
Abstract: The Office of Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion
(ODPHP) is focused on developing and
disseminating health information to the
public. ODPHP faces an increasingly
urgent interest in finding effective ways
to communicate health information to
America’s diverse population. ODPHP
strives to be responsive to the needs of
America’s diverse audiences while
simultaneously serving all Americans
across a range of channels, from print to
new communication technologies. To
carry out prevention information efforts,
ODPHP is committed to conducting
formative and usability research to
provide guidance on the development
and implementation of their
communication and education efforts.
The information collected will be used
to improve communication, products,
and services that support key office
initiatives including: Dietary Guidelines
for Americans, Food is Medicine,
Healthy People, Health Literacy,
Healthy Aging, Physical Activity
Guidelines for Americans, the Move
Your Way Campaign and the President’s
Council on Sports, Fitness & Nutrition.
ODPHP communicates through its
website (www.health.gov) and through
other channels including social media,
print materials, interactive training
modules, and reports. Data collection
will be qualitative and quantitative and
may include in-depth interviews, focus
groups, web-based surveys, omnibus
surveys, card sorting, and several forms
of usability testing of materials and
interactive tools to assess the public’s
understanding of disease prevention
and health promotion content,
responses to prototype materials, and
barriers to effective use.
The program is requesting a 3-year
extension of the clearance.
