RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD 

Proposed Collection; Comment 

Request 

In accordance with the requirement of 

section 3506 (c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 which provides 

opportunity for public comment on new 

or revised data collections, the Railroad 

Retirement Board (RRB) will publish 

periodic summaries of proposed data 

collections. 

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 

the proposed information collection is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information has practical 

utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s 

estimate of the burden of the collection 

of the information; (c) ways to enhance 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (d) 

ways to minimize the burden related to 

the collection of information on 

respondents, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

1. Title and purpose of information 

collection: Medical Reports; OMB 3220– 

0038. 

Under sections 2(a)(1)(iv) and 

2(a)(1)(v) of the Railroad Retirement Act 

(RRA) (45 U.S.C.231a), annuities are 

payable to qualified railroad employees 

whose physical or mental condition 

makes them unable to (1) work in their 

regular occupation (occupational 

disability) or (2) work at all (total 

disability). The requirements for 

establishing disability and proof of 

continuing disability under the RRA are 

prescribed in 20 CFR 220. 

Annuities are also payable to (1) 

qualified spouses and widow(ers) under 

sections 2(c)(1)(ii)(C) and 2(d)(1)(ii) of 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 204 / Tuesday, October 24, 2023 / Notices 73055 

the RRA who have a qualifying child 

who became disabled before age 22; (2) 

surviving children on the basis of 

disability under section 2(d)(1)(iii)(C), if 

the child’s disability began before age 

22; and (3) widow(er)s on the basis of 

disability under section 2(d)(1)(i)(B). To 

meet the disability standard, the RRA 

provides that individuals must have a 

permanent physical or mental condition 

that makes them unable to engage in any 

regular employment. 

Under section 2(d)(1)(v) of the RRA, 

annuities are also payable to remarried 

widow(er)s and surviving divorced 

spouses on the basis of, among other 

things, disability or having a qualifying 

disabled child in care. However, the 

disability standard in these cases is that 

found in the Social Security Act. That 

is, individuals must be unable to engage 

in any substantial gainful activity by 

reason of any medically determinable 

physical or mental impairment. The 

RRB also determines entitlement to a 

Period of Disability and entitlement to 

early Medicare based on disability for 

qualified claimants in accordance with 

section 216 of the Social Security Act. 

When making disability 

determinations, the RRB needs evidence 

from acceptable medical sources. The 

RRB currently utilizes Forms G–3EMP, 

Report of Medical Condition by 

Employer; G–197, Authorization to 

Disclose Information to the Railroad 

Retirement Board; G–250, Medical 

Assessment; G–250A, Medical 

Assessment of Residual Functional 

Capacity; G–260, Report of Seizure 

Disorder; RL–11B, Disclosure of 

Hospital Medical Records; RL–11D, 

Disclosure of Medical Records from a 

State Agency; RL–11D1, Request for 

Medical Evidence from Employers, and 

RL–250, Request for Medical 

Assessment, to obtain the necessary 

medical evidence. One response is 

requested of each respondent. 

Completion is required for all forms to 

obtain benefits except Form RL–11D1, 

which is voluntary. The RRB proposes 

no changes to Form G–3EMP, G–197, G– 

250, G–250A, G–260, RL–11B, RL–11D, 

RL–11D1, and RL–250.

2. Title and purpose of information 

collection: Report of Stock Options and 

Other Payments; OMB 3220–0203. 

The Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) 

is directed by 45 U.S.C. 231f(c)(2) to 

establish a financial interchange (FI) 

between the railroad retirement and 

social security systems to place the 

Social Security Old-Age and Survivors 

Insurance (OASI) and Disability 

Insurance (DI) Trust Funds and the 

Centers for Medicare and Medicaid 

Services (CMS) Hospital Insurance (HI) 

Trust Fund in the same condition they 

would have been had railroad 

employment been covered by the Social 

Security Act and Federal Insurance 

Contributions Act (FICA). Each year, the 

RRB estimates the benefits and expenses 

that would have been paid by these trust 

funds, as well as the payroll taxes and 

income taxes that would have been 

received by them. To make these 

estimates, the RRB requires information 

on all earnings data that are not taxable 

under the Railroad Retirement Tax Act 

(RRTA) but would be taxable under 

FICA. 

The payroll information collected 

from the BA–15 is essential for the 

calculation of payroll taxes and benefits 

used by the FI. Failure to collect NQSOs 

and ratification payment information 

will result in understating the payroll 

taxes that should have been collected 

and the benefit amounts that would 

have been payable under the Social 

Security Act for FI purposes. Accurate 

compensation file tabulations are also 

an integral part of the data needed to 

estimate future tax revenues and 

corresponding FI amounts. Without 

information on NQSOs and ratification 

payments, the amount of funds to be 

transferred between the RRB, SSA and 

CMS cannot be determined. 

Form BA–15, Report of Stock Options 

and Other Payments, to request 

employer information and report 

identifying information as well as each 

employee’s social security number, 

name, and compensation information, 

which will be reported annually in a 

quarterly breakdown. The RRB receives 

Form BA–15 by secure Email, File 

Transfer Protocol (FTP), or via CD– 

ROM. The RRB proposes minor nonburden impacting changes to the Form 

BA–15: 

• remove the word ‘‘ratification’’ and 

replace with ‘‘other’’ in the first 

paragraph of the form and section 24– 

27 of the Form tab, 

• remove the word ‘‘ratification’’ and 

replace with ‘‘other’’ in the Instructions 

tab for number 14–17 & 24–27, 

• remove the word ‘‘ratification’’ and 

replace with ‘‘other’’ in the Data Layout 

tab for 28–31, and 

• remove the first row titled 

‘‘Column’’ in the Data Layout tab.
