CMS-10728 Value in Opioid Use Disorder Treatment Demonstration
CMS-416 Annual Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment
(EPSDT) Participation Report
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 approval. To comply with this
requirement, CMS is publishing this notice.

1. Type of Information Collection Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of Information Collection: Value in Opioid
[[Page 15036]]
Use Disorder Treatment Demonstration; Use: Value in Opioid Use Disorder
Treatment (Value in Treatment) is a 4-year demonstration program
authorized under section 1866F of the Social Security Act (Act), which
was added by section 6042 of the Substance Use-Disorder Prevention that
Promotes Opioid Recovery and Treatment for Patients and Communities Act
(SUPPORT Act). The purpose of Value in Treatment, as stated in the
statute, is to ``increase access of applicable beneficiaries to opioid
use disorder treatment services, improve physical and mental health
outcomes for such beneficiaries, and to the extent possible, reduce
Medicare program expenditures.'' As required by statute, Value in
Treatment was implemented January 1, 2021. Section 1866F(c)(1)(A)(ii)
specifies that individuals and entities must apply for and be selected
to participate in the Value in Treatment demonstration pursuant to an
application and selection process established by the Secretary.
Section 1866F(c)(2)(B)(iii) specifies that in order to receive CMF
and performance-based incentive payments under the Value in Treatment
program, each participant shall report data necessary to: monitor and
evaluate the Value in Treatment program; determine if criteria are met;
and determine the performance-based incentive payment. Form Number:
CMS-10728 (OMB control number: 0938-1388); Frequency: Annually;
Affected Public: Individuals and Households; Number of Respondents:
388; Total Annual Responses: 388; Total Annual Hours: 282. (For policy
questions regarding this collection contact Rebecca VanAmburg at 410-

2. Type of Information Collection Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of Information Collection: Annual Early and
Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) Participation
Report; Use: The collected baseline data is used to assess the
effectiveness of state early and periodic screening, diagnostic and
treatment (EPSDT) programs in reaching eligible children (by age group
and basis of Medicaid eligibility) who are provided initial and
periodic child health screening services, referred for corrective
treatment, and receiving dental, hearing, and vision services. This
assessment is coupled with the state's results in attaining the
participation goals set for the state. The information gathered from
this report, permits federal and state managers to evaluate the
effectiveness of the EPSDT law on the basic aspects of the program.
Form Number: CMS-416 (OMB control number 0938-0354); Frequency: Yearly;
Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal Governments; Number of
