Review; Comment Request
AGENCY: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Health and Human
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 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 May 7, 2026.
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.
[[Page 17658]]
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: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of Information Collection: Manufacturer
Submission of Average Sales Price (ASP) Data for Medicare Part B Drugs
and Biologicals and Supporting Regulations in 42 CFR 414.800-806; Use:
Section 1847A of the Social Security Act requires that the Medicare
Part B payment amounts for covered drugs and biologicals not paid on a
cost or prospective payment basis be based upon manufacturers' average
sales price data submitted quarterly to CMS. The reporting requirements
are specified in 42 CFR part 414, subpart J. This April 2026 iteration
proposes to revise the Bona Fide Service Fee Certification form and
revise our active burden estimates. Since some of the changes are
substantive, this 30-day collection of information request is a
continuation of the 60-day collection of information request that
published in the Federal Register on December 30, 2025 (90 FR 61154).
Form Number: CMS-10110 (OMB control number: 0938-0921); Frequency:
Quarterly; Affected Public: Private Sector; Number of Respondents: 500;
Total Annual Responses: 4,500; Total Annual Hours: 49,500. (For policy
questions regarding this collection contact: Rebecca Ray at 667-414-
0879 or Laura Kennedy at 410-786-3377.)

Director, Division of Information Collections and Regulatory Impacts,
