Services (CMS), Department of Health and Human Services, is publishing

including any of the following subjects: (1) The necessity and utility 
of the proposed information collection for the proper performance of 
the Agency's function; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden; (3) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and (4) the use of automated collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology to minimize the information

requests for access to business applications. The primary purpose of 
this system is to implement a unified framework for managing user 
information and access rights, for those individuals who apply for and 
are granted access across multiple CMS systems and business contexts. 
Information in this system will also be used to: (1) Support regulatory 
and policy functions performed within the Agency or by a contractor or 
consultant; (2) support constituent requests made to a Congressional 
representative; and (3) to support litigation involving the Agency 
related to this system.; Frequency: Other--As required; Affected
