SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Contents
This notice sets out a summary of the use and burden associated
with the following information collections. More detailed information
can be found in each collection's supporting statement and associated
materials (see ADDRESSES).
CMS-R-284 Transformed--Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-MSIS)
CMS-10387 Minimum Data Set 3.0 Nursing Home and Swing Bed Prospective
Payment System (PPS) For the collection of data related to the Patient
Driven Payment Model and the Skilled Nursing Facility Quality Reporting
Program (QRP)
Under the 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 requires federal agencies
to publish a 60-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
[[Page 16740]]
approval. To comply with this requirement, CMS is publishing this
notice.
Information Collection
1. Type of Information Collection Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of Information Collection: Transformed--
Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-MSIS); Use: The data
reported in T-MSIS are used by federal, state, and local officials, as
well as by private researchers and corporations to monitor past and
projected future trends in the Medicaid program. The data provide the
only national level information available on enrollees, beneficiaries,
and expenditures. It also provides the only national level information
available on Medicaid utilization. The information is the basis for
analyses and for cost savings estimates for the Department's cost
sharing legislative initiatives to Congress. The collected data are
also crucial to our actuarial forecasts. Form Number: CMS-R-284 (OMB
control number: 0938-0345); Frequency: Quarterly and monthly; Affected
Public: State, Local, or Tribal Governments; Number of Respondents: 54;
Total Annual Responses: 684; Total Annual Hours: 6,480. (For policy
questions regarding this collection contact Connie Gibson at 410-786-
0755.)
2. Type of Information Collection Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of Information Collection: Minimum Data Set
3.0 Nursing Home and Swing Bed Prospective Payment System (PPS) For the
collection of data related to the Patient Driven Payment Model and the
Skilled Nursing Facility Quality Reporting Program (QRP); Use: We are
requesting to implement the MDS 3.0 v1.17.2 from Oct 1, 2020 to Oct 1,
2023. On May 15, 2020, in response to State Medicaid Agency and
stakeholder requests, we updated the MDS 3.0 item sets to version
1.17.2. The changes in this version will allow State Medicaid Agencies
to collect Patient Driven Payment Model (PDPM) payment codes and
thereby inform their future payment models. Calculation of the PDPM
payment code on OBRA assessment is not a federal requirement. These
item set changes do not reflect any change in burden from the previous
version, MDS 3.0 v1.17.1.
CMS uses the MDS 3.0 PPS Item Set to collect the data used to
reimburse skilled nursing facilities for SNF-level care furnished to
Medicare beneficiaries and to collect information for quality measures
and standardized patient assessment data under the SNF QRP. Form
Number: CMS-10387 (OMB control number: 0938-1140); Frequency: Yearly;
Affected Public: Private Sector: Business or other for-profit and not-
for-profit institutions; Number of Respondents: 15,471; Total Annual
Responses: 4,905,042; Total Annual Hours: 4,169,286. (For policy
questions regarding this collection contact Heidi Magladry at 410-786-
6034).
