52814 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 197 / Wednesday, October 14, 2009 / Notices 

publishes periodic summaries of 

proposed projects being developed for 

submission to the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995. To request more 

information on the proposed project or 

to obtain a copy of the data collection 

plans and draft instruments, e-mail 

paperwork@hrsa.gov or call the HRSA 

Reports Clearance Officer on (301) 443– 

1129. 

Comments are invited on: (a) The 

proposed collection of information for 

the proper performance of the functions 

of the agency; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information 

technology. 

Proposed Project: Children’s Hospitals 

Graduate Medical Education Payment 

Program (CHGME PP) (OMB No. 0915– 

0247)—Extension 

The CHGME PP was enacted by 

Public Law 106–129 and reauthorized 

by Public Law 109–307 to provide 

Federal support for graduate medical 

education (GME) to freestanding 

children’s hospitals. This legislation 

attempts to provide support for GME 

comparable to the level of Medicare 

GME support received by other, nonchildren’s hospitals. The legislation 

indicates that eligible children’s 

hospitals will receive payments for both 

direct and indirect medical education. 

Direct payments are designed to offset 

the expenses associated with operating 

approved graduate medical residency 

training programs and indirect 

payments are designed to compensate 

hospitals for expenses associated with 

the treatment of more severely ill 

patients and the additional costs 

relating to teaching residents in such 

programs. 

Data are collected on the number of 

full-time equivalent residents in 

applicant children’s hospitals’ training 

programs to determine the amount of 

direct and indirect medical education 

payments to be distributed to 

participating children’s hospitals. 

Indirect medical education payments 

will also be derived from a formula that 

requires the reporting of discharges, 

beds, and case mix index information 

from participating children’s hospitals. 

Hospitals will be requested to submit 

such information in an annual 

application. Hospitals will also be 

requested to submit data on the number 

of full-time equivalent residents a 

second time during the Federal fiscal 

year to participate in the reconciliation 

payment process. 

The estimated annual burden is as
