Privacy Act of 1974; Report of a New System of Records
In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, we are proposing to establish a new system of records titled, ``Medicare Administrative Issue Tracker and Reporting of Operations (MAISTRO) System,'' System No. 09-70-0598. The purpose of the system is to capture and track casework/inquiries pertaining to Medicare Part A and Part B programs. The system will also provide a mechanism for recording data on a national level and will serve as a tool to leverage in performing analysis including identification of systemic trends. MAISTRO will record, track and monitor beneficiary and provider level inquiries & complaints. The system will contain information needed to research the inquiries, such as a beneficiary's health insurance claim number (HICN) or a Provider Identification Number (NPI). The primary purpose of the system is to collect and maintain information needed to provide a mechanism for CMS' central and regional office to capture, track, manage, report and trend inquiries, complaints and issues related to Fee-for-Service (FFS) programs. Information maintained in this system will also be disclosed to: (1) Support regulatory, reimbursement, and policy functions performed within the Agency or by a contractor, consultant or CMS grantee; (2) assist another Federal or state agency, agency of a state government, an agency established by state law, or its fiscal agent; (3) facilitate research on the quality and effectiveness of care provided, as well as epidemiological projects; (4) support litigation involving the Agency; and (5) combat fraud, waste, and abuse in certain health benefits programs. We have provided background information about the modified system in the Supplementary Information section below. Although the Privacy Act requires only that CMS provide an opportunity for interested persons to comment on the proposed routine uses, CMS invites comments on all portions of this notice. See EFFECTIVE DATES section for comment period.
