Elements and Drug Price Negotiation
Process for Initial Price Applicability
Year 2027 under sections 11001 and
11002 of the Inflation Reduction Act
Information Collection Request (ICR)
(CMS–10849, OMB 0938–1452); Use:
Under the authority in sections 11001
and 11002 of the Inflation Reduction
Act of 2022 (Pub. L. 117–169), the
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
Services (CMS) is implementing the
Medicare Drug Price Negotiation
Program, codified in sections 1191
through 1198 of the Social Security Act
(‘‘the Act’’). The Act establishes the
Negotiation Program to negotiate
maximum fair prices (‘‘MFPs’’), defined
at 1191(c)(3) of the Act, for certain high
expenditure, single source selected
drugs covered under Medicare Part B
and Part D. For the second year of the
Negotiation Program, the Secretary of
Health and Human Services (the
‘‘Secretary’’) will select up to 15 high
expenditure, single source drugs
covered under Part D for negotiation.
Negotiation Data Elements: The
statute requires that CMS consider
certain data from Primary
Manufacturers as part of the negotiation
process. To the extent that more than
one entity meets the statutory definition
of manufacturer (specified in section
1193(a)(1) of the Act) for a selected drug
for purposes of initial price applicability
year 2027, CMS will designate the entity
that holds the New Drug Application(s)
(NDA(s))/Biologics License
Application(s) (BLA(s)) for the selected
drug to be ‘‘the manufacturer’’ of the
selected drug (hereinafter the ‘‘Primary
Manufacturer’’). The Primary
Manufacturer’s data submissions
include non-FAMP and related data for
selected drugs for the purpose of
establishing a ceiling price, as outlined
in section 1193(a)(4)(A) of the Act, and
the negotiation factors outlined in
section 1194(e)(1) of the Act for the
purpose of formulating offers and
counteroffers process pursuant to
section 1193(a)(4)(B) of the Act. Some of
these data are held by the Primary
Manufacturer and are not currently
available to CMS. Data described in
sections 1194(e)(1) and 1193(a)(4) of the
Act must be submitted by the Primary
Manufacturer.
Section 1194(e)(2) of the Act requires
CMS to consider certain data on
selected drugs and their alternative
treatments. Because the statute does not
specify where these data come from,
CMS will allow for optional submission
from Primary Manufacturers and the
public. CMS will additionally review
existing literature, conduct internal
analyses, and consult subject matter and
clinical experts on the factors listed in
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:29 Nov 22, 2024
Jkt 265001
section 1194(e)(2) of the Act. Primary
Manufacturers may optionally submit
this information as part of their
Negotiation Data Elements Information
Collection Request Form. The public
may also optionally submit evidence
about the selected drugs and their
alternative treatments.
Drug Price Negotiation Process: Any
MFPs that are negotiated for the drugs
selected for the second year of the
Negotiation Program will apply
beginning in initial price applicability
year 2027. For initial price applicability
year 2027, the negotiation period begins
on the earlier of the date that the
Primary Manufacturer enters into a
Medicare Drug Price Negotiation
Program Agreement or February 28,
2025.
Section 1194(b)(2)(C) of the Act
provides that if the Primary
Manufacturer does not accept CMS’
written initial offer, the Primary
Manufacturer may submit an optional
written counteroffer no later than 30
days after the date of receipt of CMS’
written initial offer. If the Primary
Manufacturer chooses to develop and
submit a written counteroffer to CMS’
written initial offer during the drug
price negotiation process for initial
price applicability year 2027 in
accordance with section 1194(b)(2)(C) of
the Act, the Primary Manufacturer must
submit the Statutory Written
Counteroffer Form. Form Number:

Request for public comments.
The Office of Refugee
Resettlement (ORR), Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services, is inviting public comments
on the proposed information collection,
including proposed changes. The
request consists of several forms that
will allow the Unaccompanied Children
(UC) Bureau to continue providing
statutorily mandated services to
unaccompanied children in ORR care.
DATES: Comments due January 24, 2025.
In compliance with the requirements of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
ACF is soliciting public comment on the
specific aspects of the information
collection described in this notice.
ADDRESSES: You can obtain copies of the
proposed collection of information and
submit comments by emailing
infocollection@acf.hhs.gov. Identify all
requests by the title of the information
collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: ORR has undertaken a
reorganization of its information
collections to promote operational
efficiency. The reorganization will
result in more collections that contain
fewer forms under a single Office of
Management and Budget number. This
information collection currently
contains 22 unique forms (33 including
alternative versions). Under the
reorganization, ORR proposes to
discontinue the use of six forms;
transfer 10 forms to new information
collections associated with Assessments
and Home Studies/Post-Release
Services; and revise five existing forms.
The UC Bureau is requesting to
discontinue the use of six forms created
for the UC Path case management
system, which was never implemented.
Except where indicated below, the UC
Path versions of these forms contain
features and/or logic not replicated in
the UC Portal, and have never been
used, thus maintaining these forms is
unnecessary. These forms include:
• Long Term Foster Care Travel
Request (Form S–14)—UC Path version
only. UC Bureau plans to revise and
continue using the UC Portal version.
• Home Study/Post-Release Service
(HS/PRS) Provider Entity (Form S–21A).
• Home Study/Post-Release Service
(HS/PRS) Subcontractor Entity (Form S–
21B).
• Home Study/Post-Release Service
(HS/PRS) Primary Provider Profile
(Form S–21C).
• Home Study/Post-Release Service
(HS/PRS) Subcontractor Profile (Form
S–21D).

Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 227 / Monday, November 25, 2024 / Notices
• Sponsor Application (Form S–24).
Additionally, the following forms
currently approved under this collection
will be transferred to two new
information collections proposed
separately. The proposed new
collections will encompass forms
pertaining to Assessments and Home
Study/Post-Release Services (HS/PRS).
These forms include:
• Assessments Information Collection
Æ Sponsor Assessment (Form S–5)
Æ Adult Contact Profile (Form S–7)
Æ Initial Intakes Assessment (Form S–
8)
Æ Assessment for Risk (Form S–9)
Æ UC Assessment (Form S–11)
Æ UC Case Review (Form S–12)
Æ Individual Service Plan (Form S–

Æ Post-Release Service (PRS) Referral
(Form S–19)
Æ Post-Release Service (PRS) Report
(Form S–22)
Æ Home Study Referral (Form S–26)
Finally, the UC Bureau plans to keep
the following forms in this information
collection and make revisions as noted
below. These forms are completed by
foster parents or case managers or
clinicians at care provider facilities to
request approval for a child to travel
outside the local community with their
foster parent; to update the child’s
biographic information and admit them
into the program; to authorize and
document the child’s contact with
others outside the program; to document
outreach performed on the child’s
behalf by care providers; and, to capture
high-level milestones in the child’s case.
These forms are documentary in nature
and a critical component of the child’s
case file. ORR funded care providers
must always remain compliant with
ORR and state licensing requirements
per the Unaccompanied Children
Program Foundational Rule, 45 CFR
410.1302(a); proposed revisions that
remove or simplify form fields attesting
to or documenting program compliance
do not exempt programs from satisfying
these requirements. The following
revisions are currently proposed for
each form:
• Foster Care Travel Request (Form
S–14):
Æ Remove ‘‘Long-term’’ from the
form’s title to clarify this form may be
used for children in all foster care
settings.
Æ Add ‘‘physical location of the
child’’ field to the UC Basic Information
section, consistent with changes made
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:29 Nov 22, 2024
Jkt 265001
to the UC Case Status (S–27) form; this
field will auto-populate data from the
UC Portal Discharge Tab.
Æ Clarify that the name of the
individual with whom the child is
traveling must be an adult.
Æ Remove Personal Vehicle
information section from the form to
align UC travel request data collection
with domestic child welfare practices.
Æ Add Health Safety Travel Plan
section to the form to document how the
child’s health conditions, if applicable,
may be effectively managed while
traveling with their foster family, and
plan for how the foster family will
handle any health-related emergencies
which may occur during travel.
Æ Simplify the Travel Request
Approval section by removing the
following fields:
D Reason Travel Request is being
submitted to ORR/DCS for approval:
D Is the travel request in accordance
with state guidelines?
D Purpose of travel and trip summary:
D Are there any identified safety
concerns in this child’s background?
D Is there any indication of flight risk?
Æ Add a summary approval field with
an open text comment space for
approving officials to document their
rationale for denial.
Æ Adjust the burden estimate to
account for an increase in the number
of care provider facilities completing the
form (form now used for children in all
foster care settings, not just long-term
foster care) and number of children
placed in ORR care, and to reflect a
decrease in the overall number of fields
the respondent will need to complete.
The annual number of respondents
increased from 30 to 138, the annual
number of responses per response
increased from 8 to 178, and the average
burden hours per response decreased
from 0.33 hours to 0.25 hours.

throughout the form to conform with UC
Bureau standard terminology as
established in UC Program Foundational
Rule, 45 CFR 410.
Æ Add ‘‘Nonbinary’’ to dropdown
menu options for Gender.
Æ Add ‘‘physical location of the
child’’ filed to the UC Basic Information
section, consistent with changes made
to the UC Case Status (S–27) form; this
field will auto-populate data from the
UC Portal Discharge Tab.
Æ Adjust the burden estimate to
account for an increase in the number
of care provider facilities and number of
children placed in ORR care. The
annual number of respondents
increased from 216 to 300 and the
annual number of responses per
response increased from 278 to 327.

Services, is inviting public comments on the proposed information
collection, including proposed changes. The request consists of several
forms that will allow the Unaccompanied Children (UC) Bureau to
continue providing statutorily mandated services to unaccompanied
children in ORR care.
DATES: Comments due January 24, 2025. In compliance with the
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, ACF is soliciting
public comment on the specific aspects of the information collection
described in this notice.
ADDRESSES: You can obtain copies of the proposed collection of
information and submit comments by emailing [email protected].
Identify all requests by the title of the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: ORR has undertaken a reorganization of its information
collections to promote operational efficiency. The reorganization will
result in more collections that contain fewer forms under a single
Office of Management and Budget number. This information collection
currently contains 22 unique forms (33 including alternative versions).
Under the reorganization, ORR proposes to discontinue the use of six
forms; transfer 10 forms to new information collections associated with
Assessments and Home Studies/Post-Release Services; and revise five
existing forms.
The UC Bureau is requesting to discontinue the use of six forms
created for the UC Path case management system, which was never
implemented. Except where indicated below, the UC Path versions of
these forms contain features and/or logic not replicated in the UC
Portal, and have never been used, thus maintaining these forms is
unnecessary. These forms include:
Long Term Foster Care Travel Request (Form S-14)--UC Path
version only. UC Bureau plans to revise and continue using the UC
Portal version.
Home Study/Post-Release Service (HS/PRS) Provider Entity
(Form S-21A).
Home Study/Post-Release Service (HS/PRS) Subcontractor
Entity (Form S-21B).
Home Study/Post-Release Service (HS/PRS) Primary Provider
Profile (Form S-21C).
Home Study/Post-Release Service (HS/PRS) Subcontractor
Profile (Form S-21D).
[[Page 92942]]
Sponsor Application (Form S-24).
Additionally, the following forms currently approved under this
collection will be transferred to two new information collections
proposed separately. The proposed new collections will encompass forms
pertaining to Assessments and Home Study/Post-Release Services (HS/
PRS). These forms include:
Assessments Information Collection
[cir] Sponsor Assessment (Form S-5)
[cir] Adult Contact Profile (Form S-7)
[cir] Initial Intakes Assessment (Form S-8)
[cir] Assessment for Risk (Form S-9)
[cir] UC Assessment (Form S-11)
[cir] UC Case Review (Form S-12)
[cir] Individual Service Plan (Form S-13)
Home Study/Post-Release Services Information Collection

[cir] Post-Release Service (PRS) Referral (Form S-19)
[cir] Post-Release Service (PRS) Report (Form S-22)
[cir] Home Study Referral (Form S-26)
Finally, the UC Bureau plans to keep the following forms in this
information collection and make revisions as noted below. These forms
are completed by foster parents or case managers or clinicians at care
provider facilities to request approval for a child to travel outside
the local community with their foster parent; to update the child's
biographic information and admit them into the program; to authorize
and document the child's contact with others outside the program; to
document outreach performed on the child's behalf by care providers;
and, to capture high-level milestones in the child's case. These forms
are documentary in nature and a critical component of the child's case
file. ORR funded care providers must always remain compliant with ORR
and state licensing requirements per the Unaccompanied Children Program
Foundational Rule, 45 CFR 410.1302(a); proposed revisions that remove
or simplify form fields attesting to or documenting program compliance
do not exempt programs from satisfying these requirements. The
following revisions are currently proposed for each form:
Foster Care Travel Request (Form S-14):
[cir] Remove ``Long-term'' from the form's title to clarify this
form may be used for children in all foster care settings.
[cir] Add ``physical location of the child'' field to the UC Basic
Information section, consistent with changes made to the UC Case Status
(S-27) form; this field will auto-populate data from the UC Portal
Discharge Tab.
[cir] Clarify that the name of the individual with whom the child
is traveling must be an adult.
[cir] Remove Personal Vehicle information section from the form to
align UC travel request data collection with domestic child welfare
practices.
[cir] Add Health Safety Travel Plan section to the form to document
how the child's health conditions, if applicable, may be effectively
managed while traveling with their foster family, and plan for how the
foster family will handle any health-related emergencies which may
occur during travel.
[cir] Simplify the Travel Request Approval section by removing the
following fields:
[ssquf] Reason Travel Request is being submitted to ORR/DCS for
approval:
[ssquf] Is the travel request in accordance with state guidelines?
[ssquf] Purpose of travel and trip summary:
[ssquf] Are there any identified safety concerns in this child's
background?
[ssquf] Is there any indication of flight risk?
[cir] Add a summary approval field with an open text comment space
for approving officials to document their rationale for denial.
[cir] Adjust the burden estimate to account for an increase in the
number of care provider facilities completing the form (form now used
for children in all foster care settings, not just long-term foster
care) and number of children placed in ORR care, and to reflect a
decrease in the overall number of fields the respondent will need to
complete. The annual number of respondents increased from 30 to 138,
the annual number of responses per response increased from 8 to 178,
and the average burden hours per response decreased from 0.33 hours to
0.25 hours.
Admission (Form S-18):
[cir] Replace ``UAC'' with ``UC'' throughout the form to conform
with UC Bureau standard terminology as established in UC Program
Foundational Rule, 45 CFR 410.
[cir] Add ``Nonbinary'' to dropdown menu options for Gender.
[cir] Add ``physical location of the child'' filed to the UC Basic
Information section, consistent with changes made to the UC Case Status
(S-27) form; this field will auto-populate data from the UC Portal
Discharge Tab.
[cir] Adjust the burden estimate to account for an increase in the
number of care provider facilities and number of children placed in ORR
care. The annual number of respondents increased from 216 to 300 and
the annual number of responses per response increased from 278 to 327.
UC Authorized/Restricted Call List and Call Log (Form S-
20):
[cir] Replace ``UAC'' with ``UC'' throughout the form to conform
with UC Bureau standard terminology as established in UC Bureau
Foundational Rule.
[cir] Add ``Call Supervision Required?'' field to the Authorized
Contacts List; content will auto-populate on the call logs display tab
and reference the corresponding field in the Family/Friend contact
profile. When entering this data, respondents will select from a ``Yes/
No'' dropdown menu to indicate if contact between the child and named
