SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Contents 

This notice sets out a summary of the 

use and burden associated with the 

following information collections. More 

detailed information can be found in 

each collection’s supporting statement 

and associated materials (see 

ADDRESSES). 

CMS–216–94 Organ Procurement 

Organization/Histocompatibility 

Laboratory Cost Report 

CMS–10224 Healthcare Common 

Procedure Coding System (HCPCS)— 

Level II Code Modification Request 

Process 

Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501– 

3520), federal agencies must obtain 

approval from the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) for each collection of 

information they conduct or sponsor. 

The term ‘‘collection of information’’ is 

defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 

1320.3(c) and includes agency requests 

or requirements that members of the 

public submit reports, keep records, or 

provide information to a third party. 

Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA 

requires federal agencies to publish a 

60-day notice in the Federal Register 

concerning each proposed collection of 

information, including each proposed 

extension or reinstatement of an existing 

collection of information, before 

submitting the collection to OMB for 

approval. To comply with this 

requirement, CMS is publishing this 

notice. 

Information Collection 

1. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Extension of a currently 

approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Organ 

Procurement Organization/

Histocompatibility Laboratory Cost 

Report; Use: We are requesting an 

extension of the Form CMS 216–94, 

Organ Procurement Organization (OPO)/ 

Histocompatibility Laboratory Cost 

Report. These cost reports are filed 

annually by freestanding OPO and 

Histocompatibility Lab providers 

participating in the Medicare program to 

determine the reasonable costs incurred 

to furnish treatment for renal transplant 

patients. Form Number: CMS–216–94 

(OCN: 0938–0102); Frequency: 

Annually; Affected Public: Private 

sector—Business or other for-profits; 

Number of Respondents: 107; Total 

Annual Responses: 107 Total Annual 

Hours: 4,815. (For policy questions 

regarding this collection contact Angela 

Havrilla at 410–786–4516.) 

2. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Extension of a currently 

approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Healthcare 

Common Procedure Coding System 

(HCPCS)—Level II Code Modification 

Request Process; Use: Each year, in the 

United States, health care insurers 

process over 5 billion claims for 

payment. For Medicare and other health 

insurance programs to ensure that these 

claims are processed in an orderly and 

consistent manner, standardized coding 

systems are essential. The Healthcare 

Common Procedure Coding System 

(HCPCS) Level II Code Set is one of the 

standard code sets used for this 

purpose. Level II of the HCPCS, also 

referred to as alpha-numeric codes, is a 

standardized coding system that is used 

primarily to identify products, supplies, 

and services not included in the CPT 

codes, such as ambulatory services and 

durable medical equipment, prosthetics, 

orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS) when 

used in the home or outpatient setting. 

The HCPCS codeset has been 

maintained and distributed via 

modifications of codes, modifiers and 

descriptions, as a direct result of data 

received from applicants. The HCPCS 

codeset maintenance is an ongoing 

process, as changes are implemented 

and updated annually; therefore, the 

process requires continual collection of 

information from applicants on an 

annual basis. As new technology 

evolves and new devices, drugs and 

supplies are introduced to the market, 

applicants submit applications to us 

requesting modifications to the HCPCS 

Level II codeset. Form Number: CMS– 

10224 (OCN: 0938–1042); Frequency: 

Annually; Affected Public: Private 

sector—Business or other for-profits and 

Not-for-profit institutions; Number of 

Respondents: 300; Total Annual 

Responses: 300 Total Annual Hours: 

3,300. (For policy questions regarding 

this collection contact Kimberlee Combs 

Miller at 410–786–6707.)
