Services (HHS).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is
announcing an opportunity for the public to comment on CMS' intention
to collect information from the public. Under the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (PRA), federal agencies are required to publish notice in
the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed extension or reinstatement of an
existing collection of information, and to allow a second opportunity
for public comment on the notice. Interested persons are invited to
send comments regarding the burden estimate or any
[[Page 41632]]
other aspect of this collection of information, including the necessity
and utility of the proposed information collection for the proper
performance of the agency's functions, the accuracy of the estimated
burden, ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected, and the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information technology to minimize the
information collection burden.
DATES: Comments on the collection(s) of information must be received by
the OMB desk officer by July 27, 2023.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: William Parham at (410) 786-4669.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(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 (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires
federal agencies to publish a 30-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 that
summarizes the following proposed collection(s) of information for
public comment:
1. Type of Information Collection Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of Information Collection: Collection
Requirements for Compendia for Determination of Medically-accepted
Indications for Off-label Uses of Drugs and Biologicals in an Anti-
cancer Chemotherapeutic Regimen; Use: Section 182(b) of the Medicare
Improvement of Patients and Providers Act (MIPPA) amended section
1861(t)(2)(B) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395x(t)(2)(B)) by
adding at the end the following new sentence: `On and after January 1,
2010, no compendia may be included on the list of compendia under this
subparagraph unless the compendia has a publicly transparent process
for evaluating therapies and for identifying potential conflicts of
interest.' We believe that the implementation of this statutory
provision that compendia have a ``publicly transparent process for
evaluating therapies and for identifying potential conflicts of
interests'' is best accomplished by amending 42 CFR 414.930 to include
the MIPPA requirements and by defining the key components of publicly
transparent processes for evaluating therapies and for identifying
potential conflicts of interests.
All currently listed compendia will be required to comply with
these provisions, as of January 1, 2010, to remain on the list of
recognized compendia. In addition, any compendium that is the subject
of a future request for inclusion on the list of recognized compendia
will be required to comply with these provisions. No compendium can be
on the list if it does not fully meet the standard described in section
1861(t)(2)(B) of the Act, as revised by section 182(b) of the MIPPA.
Form Number: CMS-10302 (OMB control number: 0938-1078); Frequency:
Annually; Affected Public: Business and other for-profits and Not-for-
profit institutions; Number of Respondents: 845; Total Annual
Responses: 900; Total Annual Hours: 5,135. (For policy questions
regarding this collection contact Sarah Fulton at 410-786-2749.)
