Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled ‘‘Compliance
Attestation Statement for the
Framework for Nucleic Acid Synthesis
Screening’’ to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for review and
approval. CDC previously published a
‘‘Proposed Data Collection Submitted
for Public Comment and
Recommendations’’ notice on July 24,
2024 to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies. CDC did
not receive comments related to the
previous notice. This notice serves to
allow an additional 30 days for public
and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including, through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and
(e) Assess information collection
costs.

Background and Brief Description
The purpose of this Attestation Form
is to assist providers of synthetic
nucleic acids (Providers) and
manufacturers of benchtop nucleic acid
synthesis equipment (Manufacturers) in
making an attestation that they are
performing due diligence in screening
product orders and customers consistent
with the expectations outlaid in the
federal Framework for Nucleic Acid

While Providers and Manufacturers may
choose a different mode to make such
an attestation, this Attestation Form
serves as a valid template. This
statement of attestation will provide the
U.S. Federal Government and
researchers using any United States
Government life sciences research
award (e.g., research grant, contract,
etc.) for procurement of synthetic
nucleic acids or benchtop nucleic acid
synthesis equipment reasonable
assurance that Providers and
Manufacturers are complying with the
Framework.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 20 annual burden hours.

CMS–2744—End Stage Renal Disease
Annual Facility Survey Form
Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3520), federal agencies must obtain
approval from the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
The term ‘‘collection of information’’ is
defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes agency requests
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA
requires federal agencies to publish a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension or reinstatement of an existing
collection of information, before
submitting the collection to OMB for
approval. To comply with this
requirement, CMS is publishing this
notice.
Information Collections
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Reinstatement with change of a
previously approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: End Stage Renal
Disease Annual Facility Survey Form;
Use: The Program Management and
Medical Information System (PMMIS)
collects provider-specific and aggregate
patient population data on ESRD
beneficiaries treated by dialysis and
transplant providers. Each facility

certification/survey record represents
one provider. The CMS–2744 captures
certification and other information
about ESRD facilities approved by
Medicare to provide kidney dialysis and
transplant services. Additionally, the
CMS–2744 captures activities performed
during the calendar year, as well as
aggregate year-end population counts
for both Medicare beneficiaries and nonMedicare patients. The data elements
include basic provider information such
as provider certification and type of
ownership; aggregated dialysis patient
data such as the number of patients,
number of deaths, and number of
patients receiving different types of
dialysis; dialysis treatment data; kidney
transplant data such as number of
transplants, type of transplants, and
number of patients awaiting transplants;
and the total number of each method
used to obtain kidneys for transplants.
The CMS–2744 collects data on
hemodialysis patients dialyzing,
vocational rehabilitation, and staffing.
The accuracy of the Facility Survey
depends on complete reporting by each
facility.
Modifications to the CMS–2744 are (a)
collection of days the dialysis facility is
open; (b) shifts dialysis is provided; (c)
adding ‘‘failed’’ to ‘‘return after
transplant’’ for clarity; (d) removing
questions related to vocational
rehabilitation; and (e) aligning
instructions with revisions. Form
Number: CMS–2744 (OMB control
number: 0938–0447); Frequency: Yearly;
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit, Not-for-profit institutions;
Number of Respondents: 7,726; Total
Annual Responses: 7,726; Total Annual
Hours: 15,452. (For policy questions
