SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    In FR Doc. 2022-00117 of January 12, 2022 (87 FR 1842), there were 
several technical errors that are identified and corrected in this 
correcting document.

II. Summary of Errors

    On page 1899, in discussion of the proposed regulations text 
changes for the assessment of past performance, we made an error in a 
regulatory citation.
    On page 1925, in our discussion of the information collection 
requirements for limiting certain Medicare Advantage contracts to dual 
special needs plans (D-SNPs), we inadvertently omitted language 
regarding when we will submit information on the number of respondents 
and the time estimates to the public and OMB.

III. Correction of Errors

    In FR Doc. 2022-00117 of January 12, 2022 (87 FR 1842), make the 
following corrections:
    1. On page 1899, first column, first full paragraph, line 3, the 
reference ``Sec.  422.505(n)'' is corrected to read ``Sec.  
423.505(n)''.
    2. On page 1925, first column, after the first full paragraph that 
begins with the phrase ``The burden for an initial Part D'', the text 
is corrected by adding the following paragraph to read as follows:

[[Page 10762]]

    ``While we anticipate changes to the number of respondents and our 
active time estimates for the Part C and Part D applications, if this 
proposal is finalized we would revise control numbers 0938-0935 (CMS-
10237) and 0938-0936 (CMS-10137) for the 2025 plan year application and 
prior to the effective date of the requirement. The CMS-10237 and CMS-
10137 collection of information materials would be made available to 
the public for review/comment under the standard PRA process which 
includes the publication of 60- and 30-day Federal Register notices and 
the posting of the collection of information documents on our PRA 
website.''
