This notice sets out a summary of the
use and burden associated with the
following information collections. More
detailed information can be found in
each collection’s supporting statement
and associated materials (see
ADDRESSES).
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
