SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Proposed Project 

Patient Safety Organization 

Certification for Initial Listing and 

Related Forms, Patient Safety 

Confidentiality Complaint Form, and 

Common Formats 

The Patient Safety and Quality 

Improvement Act of 2005 (hereafter the 

Patient Safety Act), 42 U.S.C. 299b–21 

to 299b–26, was enacted in response to 

growing concern about patient safety in 

the United States and the Institute of 

Medicine’s 1999 report, To Err is 

Human: Building a Safer Health System. 

The goal of the statute is to improve 

patient safety by providing an incentive 

for health care providers to work 

voluntarily with experts in patient 

safety to reduce risks and hazards to the 

safety and quality of patient care. The 

Patient Safety Act signifies the Federal 

Government’s commitment to fostering 

a culture of patient safety among health 

care providers; it offers a mechanism for 

creating an environment in which the 

causes of risks and hazards to patient 

safety can be thoroughly and honestly 

examined and discussed without fear of 

penalties and liabilities. It provides for 

the voluntary formation of Patient 

Safety Organizations (PSOs) that can 

collect, aggregate, and analyze 

confidential information reported 

voluntarily by health care providers. By 

analyzing substantial amounts of patient 

safety event information across multiple 

institutions, PSOs will be able to 

identify patterns of failures and propose 

measures to eliminate or reduce patient 

safety risks and hazards. 

In order to implement the Patient 

Safety Act, the Department of Health 

and Human Services (HHS) issued the 

Patient Safety and Quality Improvement 

Final Rule (hereafter the Patient Safety 

Rule), 42 CFR part 3, which became 

effective on January 19, 2009. The 

Patient Safety Rule establishes a 

framework by which hospitals, doctors, 

and other health care providers may 

voluntarily report information to PSOs, 

on a privileged and confidential basis, 

for the aggregation and analysis of 

patient safety events. In addition, the 

Patient Safety Rule outlines the 

requirements that entities must meet to 

become PSOs and the process by which 

the Secretary of HHS (hereafter the 

Secretary) will review and accept 

certifications and list PSOs. 

In addition to the Patient Safety Act 

and the Patient Safety Rule, HHS issued 

Guidance Regarding Patient Safety 

Organizations’ Reporting Obligations 

and the Patient Safety and Quality 

Improvement Act of 2005 (hereafter 

Guidance) on December 30, 2010. The 

Guidance addresses questions that have 

arisen regarding the obligations of PSOs 

where they or the organization of which 

they are a part are legally obligated 

under the Federal Food, Drug, and 

Cosmetic Act (FDCA) and its 

implementing regulations to report 

certain information to the Food and 

Drug Administration (FDA) and to 

provide FDA with access to its records, 

including access during an inspection of 

its facilities. This Guidance applies to 

all entities that seek to be or are PSOs 

or component PSOs that have 

mandatory FDA-reporting obligations 

under the FDCA and its implementing 

regulations (‘‘FDA-regulated reporting 

entities’’) or are organizationally related 

to such FDA-regulated reporting entities 

(e.g., parent organizations, subsidiaries, 

sibling organizations). 

When PSOs meet the requirements of 

the Patient Safety Act, the information 

collected and the analyses and 

deliberations regarding the information 

receive Federal confidentiality and 

privilege protections under this 

legislation. The Secretary delegated 

authority to the Director of the Office for 

Civil Rights (OCR) to enforce the 

confidentiality protections of the Patient 

Safety Act. 71 FR 28701–28702 (May 17, 

2006). OCR is responsible for enforcing 

protections regarding patient safety 

work product (PSWP), which generally 

includes information that could 

improve patient safety, health care 

quality, or health care outcomes and (1) 

is assembled or developed by a provider 

for reporting to a PSO and is reported 

to a PSO or (2) is developed by a PSO 

for the conduct of patient safety 

activities. Civil money penalties may be 

imposed for knowing or reckless 

impermissible disclosures of PSWP. 

AHRQ implements and administers the 

rest of the Patient Safety Act’s 

provisions. 

Pursuant to 42 CFR 3.102, an entity 

that seeks to be listed as a PSO by the 

Secretary must certify that it meets 

certain requirements and, upon listing, 

will meet other criteria. To remain listed 

for renewable three-year periods, a PSO 

must recertify that it meets these 

obligations and will continue to meet 

them while listed. The Patient Safety 

Act and Patient Safety Rule also impose 

other obligations, discussed below, that 

a PSO must meet to remain listed. In 

order for the Secretary to administer the 

Patient Safety Act and Rule, the entities 

seeking to be listed and to remain listed 

must complete the proposed forms 

attached hereto. 

Method of Collection 

With this submission, AHRQ is 

requesting approval of the following 

proposed administrative forms: 

1. PSO Certification for Initial Listing 

Form. This form, which is to be 

completed by an entity seeking to be 

listed by the Secretary as a PSO for an 

initial three-year period, contains 

certifications that the entity meets the 

requirements for listing as a PSO, in 

accordance with 42 U.S.C. 299b–24(a)(1) 

and 42 CFR 3.102. 

2. PSO Certification for Continued 

Listing Form. In accordance with 

42 U.S.C. 299b–24(a)(2) and the Patient 

Safety Rule, this form is to be completed 

by a listed PSO seeking continued 

listing as a PSO by the Secretary for an 

additional three year period. 

3. PSO Two Bona Fide Contracts 

Requirement Certification Form. To 

remain listed, a PSO must have 

contracts with more than one provider, 

within successive 24 month periods, 

beginning with the date of its initial 

listing. 42 U.S.C. 299(b)(1)(C). This form 

is to be used by a PSO to certify whether 

it has met this requirement. 

4. PSO Disclosure Statement Form. A 

PSO must submit this form when it (i) 

has a Patient Safety Act contract witha health care provider and (ii) it has 

financial, reporting, and contractual 

relationships with that contracting 

provider or is not independent of that 

contracting provider. 42 U.S.C. 299b–24; 

42 CFR 3.102(d)(2).

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 122 / Friday, June 24, 2011 / Notices 37117 

5. PSO Information Form. This form 

gathers information on PSOs and the 

type of healthcare providers and settings 

that they are working with to conduct 

patient safety activities in order to 

improve patient safety. It is designed to 

collect a minimum level of data 

necessary to develop aggregate statistics 

relating to the Patient Safety Act, 

including types of institutions 

participating and their general location 

in the US. This information will be 

included in AHRQ’s annual quality 

report, as required by 42 U.S.C. 299b– 

23(c). 

OCR is requesting approval of the 

following administrative form: 

Patient Safety Confidentiality 

Complaint Form. The purpose of this 

collection is to allow OCR to collect the 

minimum information needed from 

individuals filing patient safety 

confidentiality complaints with our 

office so that we have a basis for initial 

processing of those complaints. 

In addition, AHRQ is requesting 

approval for a set of common definitions 

and reporting formats (hereafter 

Common Formats). Pursuant to 

42 U.S.C. 299b–23(b), AHRQ 

coordinates the development of the 

Common Formats that allow PSOs and 

health care providers to voluntarily 

collect and submit standardized 

information regarding patient safety 

events. 

Estimated Annual Respondent Burden 

While there are a number of 

information collection forms described 

below, they will be implemented at 

different times and frequency due to the 

voluntary nature of seeking listing as a 

PSO and using the Common Formats. 

Exhibit 1 shows the estimated 

annualized burden hours for the 

respondent to provide the requested 

information, and Exhibit 2 shows the 

estimated annualized cost burden 

associated with the respondents’ time to 

provide the requested information. The 

total burden hours are estimated to be 

75,764 hours annually and the total cost 

burden is estimated to be $2,538,852 

annually. 

PSO Certification for Initial Listing 

Form 

The average annual burden for the 

collection of information requested by 

the certification forms for initial listing 

is based upon a total average estimate of 

15 respondents per year and an 

estimated time of 18 hours per response. 

This collection of information takes 

place on an ongoing basis. 

Certification for Continued Listing 

Form 

The average annual burden for the 

collection of information requested by 

the certification form for continued 

listing is based upon the estimate that 

90% of the listed PSOs during the 3 

years of this clearance, or 24 PSOs 

annually, will submit forms with an 

estimated time of eight hours per 

response. The Certification for 

Continued Listing Form will be 

completed by any interested PSO at 

least 75 days before the end of its 

current three-year listing period. 

Two Bona Fide Contracts Requirement 

Certification 

The average annual burden for the 

collection of information requested by 

the two-contract requirement is based 

upon an estimate of 40 respondents per 

year and an estimated one hour per 

response. This collection of information 

takes place when the PSO notifies the 

Secretary that it has entered into two 

contracts. 

Disclosure Statement Form 

AHRQ assumes that only a small 

percentage of entities will need to file a 

disclosure form. However, AHRQ is 

providing a high estimate of 7 

respondents annually and thus 

presumably overestimating respondent 

burden. The average annual burden 

estimate of 21 hours for the collection 

of information requested by the 

disclosure form is based upon an 

estimated three hours per response. This 

information collection takes place when 

a PSO first reports having any of the 

specified types of additional 

relationships with a health care 

provider with which it has a contract to 

carry out patient safety activities. 

Information Form 

The overall annual burden estimate of 

240 hours for the collection of 

information requested by the PSO 

Information Form is based upon an 

estimate of 80 respondents per year and 

an estimated three hours per response. 

This information collection will begin 

in 2011; newly listed PSOs will first 

report in the calendar year after their 

listing by the HHS Secretary. 

Patient Safety Confidentiality 

Complaint Form 

The overall annual burden estimate of 

1 hour for the collection of information 

requested by the form is based on an 

estimate of two respondents per year 

and an estimated 20 minutes per 

response. OCR’s information collection 

using this form will not begin until after 

there is at least one PSO receiving and 

generating PSWP and there is an 

allegation of a violation of the statutory 

protection of PSWP. 

Common Formats 

AHRQ estimates that 5% FTE of a 

Patient Safety Manager at a hospital will 

be spent to administer the Common 

Formats, which is approximately 100 

hours a year. AHRQ estimates the 

number of hospitals using Common 

Formats in the first year as 500, then 

750 in year 2, and 1000 in year 3, for 

an annual average of 750 over 3 years.
