SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (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 (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal agencies
to publish a 30-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 that summarizes
the following proposed collection(s) of
information for public comment:
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Reinstatement without change
of a previously approved collection;
Title of Information Collection: Patient
Access through Application
Programming Interfaces (API); Use: This
final rule is the first phase of policies
centrally focused on advancing
interoperability and patient access to
health information using the authority
available to the Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services (CMS). We believe
this is an important step in advancing
interoperability, putting patients at the
center of their health care, and ensuring
they have electronic access to their
health information. We are committed
to working with stakeholders to solve
the issue of interoperability and getting
patients access to information about
their health care, and we are taking an
active approach to move participants in
the health care market toward
interoperability and the secure and

timely exchange of electronic health
information by adopting policies for the
Medicare and Medicaid programs, the
Children’s Health Insurance Program
(CHIP), and qualified health plan (QHP)
issuers on the individual market
Federally-facilitated Exchanges (FFEs).
For purposes of this rule, references to
QHP issuers on the FFEs excludes
issuers offering only stand-alone dental
plans (SADPs). Likewise, we are also
excluding QHP issuers only offering
QHPs in the Federally-facilitated Small
Business Health Options Program
Exchanges (FF–SHOPs) from the
provisions of this rule. This rule
requires these impacted payers to
maintain and use standards-based APIs
to make certain information available to
enrollees. CMS regulations at 42 CFR
417.414, 417.416, 422.112(a)(1)(i), and
422.114(a)(3)(ii) require that all
Medicare Advantage organizations
(MAOs) offering coordinated care plans,
network-based private fee-for-service
(PFFS) plans, and as well as section
1876 cost organizations, maintain a
network of appropriate providers that is
sufficient to provide adequate access to
covered services to meet the needs of
the population served. To enforce this
requirement, CMS regulations at
§ 422.116 outline network adequacy
criteria which set forth the minimum
number of providers and maximum
travel time and distance from enrollees
to providers, for required provider
specialty types in each county in the
United States and its territories.
Organizations must be in compliance
with the current CMS network adequacy
criteria guidance, which is updated and
published annually on CMS’s website.
This collection of information is
essential to appropriate and timely
compliance monitoring by CMS, in
order to ensure that all active contracts
offering network-based plans maintain
an adequate network.
This notice originally published on
August 22, 2024 (89 FR 67943), but CMS
was delayed in submitting it to OMB.
For that reason, we are republishing this
notice and the associated information
collection request will be submitted
upon to OMB upon publication of this
notice. Form Number: CMS–10767

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: Since 2005, Congress has
authorized dedicated funding for
discretionary awards from ACF’s Office
of Family Assistance to support HMRF
programs. Per the 2020 HMRF Notice of
Funding Opportunities issued by ACF,
HMRF grant recipients that are carrying
out local evaluations are required to
submit a final evaluation report to ACF
at the end of their grant. The final
reports must document the research
questions, measures, study design,
planned and actual implementation of
the program, analytic methods for their
evaluation, and evaluation findings.
OPRE is conducting the HMRF Local
Evaluation Technical Assistance (LETA)
projects, jointly referred to as the
HMRF–LETA projects, to support
federally funded programs in evaluating
their healthy relationship and family
stability services to adult couples, adult
individuals, fathers, and youth. As part
of the HMRF–LETA project, grant
recipients receive technical assistance to
support planning and executing a local
evaluation and analyzing and reporting
local evaluation findings.
The purpose of the current
information collection request is to
provide standardized report templates
and table shells to grant recipients to
document their evaluation’s analysis
and findings. A structured final report
template will facilitate grant recipients’
efficient and consistent reporting of
evaluation findings in their final
reports. The completed draft reports
will be reviewed by the HMRF–LETA
teams to determine whether the analysis
and reports meet standards set by ACF,
and to develop recommendations for
grant recipients to improve the analysis
and reports before final submission to
ACF. Grant recipients will finalize and
submit their final reports to ACF, as
required. This request includes the time
to develop and submit the reports.
Respondents: The respondents are
HMRF grant recipients conducting a
local evaluation. There are currently 79
grant recipients conducting local
evaluations: 50 evaluations using
descriptive designs (‘‘descriptive
evaluations’’) and 29 evaluations using
impact designs (‘‘impact evaluations’’).
