SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Affordable Care Act Section 2715 

Summary Disclosures information 

collection. Public Health Service Act 

section 2715 directed the Department of 

Health and Human Services (HHS), the 

Department of Labor (DOL), and the 

Department of the Treasury 

(collectively, the Departments), in 

consultation with the National 

Association of Insurance Commissioners 

(NAIC) and a working group comprised 

of stakeholders, to develop standards for 

use by a group health plan and a health 

insurance issuer in compiling and 

providing to applicants, enrollees, and 

policyholders and certificate holders a 

summary of benefits and coverage 

explanation that accurately describes 

the benefits and coverage under the 

applicable plan or coverage. The subject 

information collection relates to the 

provision of the following: A summary 

of benefits and coverage, which 

includes coverage examples; a uniform 

glossary of health coverage and medical 

terms; and notice of modifications. 

Group health plans and health 

insurance issuers is required to use the 

Summary of Benefits and Coverage 

template and instructions for 

completing the template, as authorized 

by the Departments, to satisfy the 

section 2715 disclosure requirements. 

Affordable Care Act section 2715 

authorizes this information collection. 

See Public Law 111–148 sec. 2715. 

This information collection is subject 

to the PRA. A Federal agency generally 

cannot conduct or sponsor a collection 

of information, and the public is 

generally not required to respond to an 

information collection, unless it is 

approved by the OMB under the PRA 

and displays a currently valid OMB 

Control Number. In addition, 

notwithstanding any other provisions of 

law, no person shall generally be subject 

to penalty for failing to comply with a 

collection of information that does not 

display a valid Control Number. See 5 

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL 

obtains OMB approval for this 

information collection under Control 

Number 1210–0147. 

OMB authorization for an ICR cannot 

be for more than three (3) years without 

renewal, and the current approval for 

this collection is scheduled to expire on 

February 28, 2015. The DOL seeks to 

extend PRA authorization for this 

information collection for three (3) more 

years, without any change to existing 

requirements. The DOL notes that 

existing information collection 

requirements submitted to the OMB 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review. For 

additional substantive information 

about this ICR, see the related notice 

published in the Federal Register on 

October 15, 2014 (79 FR 61903). 

Interested parties are encouraged to 

send comments to the OMB, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs at 

the address shown in the ADDRESSES

section within thirty (30) days of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register. In order to help ensure 

appropriate consideration, comments 

should mention OMB Control Number 

1210–0147. The OMB is particularly 

interested in comments that: 

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

• Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

• Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

• Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses.
