Interested persons are invited to send 

comments regarding this burden 

estimate or any other aspect of this 

collection of information, including any 

of the following subjects: (1) The 

necessity and utility of the proposed 

information collection for the proper 

performance of the agency’s functions; 

(2) the accuracy of the estimated

burden. 

1. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Revision of a currently 

approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Application for 

Prescription Drug Plans (PDP); 

Application for Medicare Advantage 

Prescription Drug (MA–PD)—CY 2012; 

Application for Cost Plans to Offer 

Qualified Prescription Drug Coverage; 

Application for Employer Group Waiver

Coverage; Service Area Expansion 

Application for Prescription Drug 

Coverage; Use: Collection of this 

information is mandated under the

Improvement, and Modernization Act of 

2003 (MMA). The application 

requirements are codified in Subpart K

Procedures and Contracts with PDP 

Sponsors.’’ 

Coverage for the prescription drug 

benefit is provided through contracted 

prescription drug plans (PDPs) or 

through Medicare Advantage (MA) 

plans that offer integrated prescription 

drug and health care coverage (MA–PD 

plans). Cost Plans that are regulated 

under Section 1876 of the Social 

Security Act, and Employer Group 

Waiver Plans (EGWP) may also provide 

a Part D benefit. Organizations wishing 

to provide services under the 

Prescription Drug Benefit Program must

and receive final approval from CMS. 

Existing Part D Sponsors may also 

expand their contracted service area by 

completing the Service Area Expansion 

(SAE) application. The collected

Ensure that applicants meet CMS 

requirements, (2) support the

2. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Revision of a currently 

approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Part C Medicare 

Advantage Application and 1876 Cost 

Plan Expansion Application—CY 2012; 

Use: The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 

(BBA) established a new ‘‘Part C’’ in the 

Medicare statute (sections 1851 through 

1859 of the Social Security Act (the 

Act)) which provided for a 

Medicare+Choice (M+C) program. 

Under section 1851(a)(1) of the Act, 

every individual entitled to Medicare 

Part A and enrolled under Part B, except 

for most individuals with end-stage 

renal disease (ESRD), could elect to 

receive benefits either through the 

Original Medicare Program or an M+C 

plan, if one was offered where he or she 

lived. The Medicare Prescription Drug, 

Improvement, and Modernization Act of 

2003 (MMA) established the Medicare 

Prescription Drug Benefit Program (Part 

D) and made revisions to the provisions 

of Medicare Part C, governing what is 

now called the Medicare Advantage 

(MA) program (formerly 

Medicare+Choice). Organizations 

wishing to provide healthcare services 

under MA and/or MA–PD plans must 

complete an application, file a bid, and 

receive final approval from CMS. 

Existing MA plans may expand their 

contracted area by completing the 

Service Area Expansion (SAE) 

application. Any current Cost Plan

Proposed Projects 

Title: Developmental Disabilities 

Program Independent Evaluation 

Project. 

OMB No.: 0970–0372. 

Description: The National 

Independent Study of the State 

Developmental Disabilities Programs 

(National Study) is an independent 

(non-biased) study to examine through 

rigorous and comprehensive research 

procedures the three programs funded 

under the Developmental Disabilities 

Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 

2000 (DD Act): (1) State Councils on 

Developmental Disabilities (SCDDs); (2) 

State Protection and Advocacy Systems 

for Individuals with developmental 

disabilities (P&As); and (3) University 

Centers for Excellence in Developmental 

Disabilities (UCEDDs). The purpose of 

the study is to assess program 

effectiveness and achievements, 

including collaborative efforts among 

these state developmental disabilities 

(DD) network programs. A component of 

the study will be an examination of the 

Administration on Developmental 

Disabilities’ efficiency and effectiveness 

to support these DD Network programs. 

The results of this evaluation will 

provide a report to the Administration 

on Developmental Disabilities (ADD) 

(the agency that administers these 

programs) with information on the 

effectiveness of its programs and 

policies and serve as a way for ADD to 

promote accountability to the public. 

The independent study is a response 

to accountability requirements for ADD 

as identified in the Developmental 

Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights 

Act of 2000 (DD Act), the Government 

Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of 

1993, and the Program Assessment 

Rating Tool (PART), previously 

administered by the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB). 

ADD has OMB approval for all the 

evaluation tools (e.g., data collection 

instruments) for this study, except a 

new one being proposed. The new 

evaluation tool would be an on-line 

survey tool designed to collect data for 

an assessment of ADD. 

Respondents: For the ADD assessment 

survey being added, the respondents 

would be Staff of State Councils on 

Developmental Disabilities, State 

Protection and Advocacy Systems for 

Individuals with developmental 

disabilities, and University Centers for 

Excellence in Developmental 

Disabilities, Education, Research, and 

Service.
