This action is not related to any pending rulemakings and the Department is not proposing any changes to the existing ICRs at this time. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, an information collection unless it displays a valid OMB control number. A summary of the ICRs and the burden estimates follows: Agency: Employee Benefits Security Administration, Department of Labor. Title: Notice of Special Enrollment Rights under Group Health Plans. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection of information. OMB Number: 1210–0101. Affected Public: Private sector, Businesses or other for-profits, Not-forprofit institutions. Respondents: 2,007,298. Responses: 8,618,763. Estimated Total Burden Hours: 552. Estimated Total Burden Cost (Operating and Maintenance): $430,938. Description: Section 701(f) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) provides special enrollment rights to individuals who have previously declined health coverage offered to them to enroll in health coverage upon the occurrence of specified events, including when they lose other coverage, when employer contributions to the cost of other coverage cease, and when they marry, have a child or adopt a child (‘‘special enrollment events’’). Plans and issuers are required to provide for 30-day special enrollment periods following any of these events during which individuals who are eligible but not enrolled have a right to enroll without being denied enrollment or having to wait for a late enrollment opportunity (often called ‘‘open enrollment’’). A group health plan may require, as a pre-condition to having a special enrollment right to enroll in group health coverage after losing eligibility under other coverage, that an employee or beneficiary who declines coverage provide the plan a written statement declaring whether he or she is declining coverage because of having other coverage. Failure to provide such a written statement can then be treated as eliminating the individual’s right to special enrollment upon losing eligibility for such other coverage. The regulations further establish that the right to special enroll can be denied in such circumstances only if employees are given notice of the requirement for a written statement and the consequences of failing to provide the E:\FR\FM\06JAN1.SGM 06JAN1
