Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Submission for OMB 

Review; Comment Request 

AGENCY: Centers for Medicare & 

Medicaid Services, HHS. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Centers for Medicare & 

Medicaid Services (CMS) is announcing 

an opportunity for the public to 

comment on CMS’ intention to collect 

information from the public. Under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(PRA), federal agencies are required to 

publish notice in the Federal Register 

concerning each proposed collection of 

information, including each proposed 

extension or reinstatement of an existing 

collection of information, and to allow 

a second opportunity for public 

comment on the notice. Interested 

persons are invited to send comments 

regarding the burden estimate or any 

other aspect of this collection of 

information, including the necessity and 

utility of the proposed information 

collection for the proper performance of 

the agency’s functions, the accuracy of 

the estimated burden, ways to enhance 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected and the use 

of automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology to 

minimize the information collection 

burden. 

DATES: Comments on the collection(s) of 

information must be received by the 

OMB desk officer by September 27, 

2018. 

ADDRESSES: When commenting on the 

proposed information collections, 

please reference the document identifier 

or OMB control number. To be assured 

consideration, comments and 

recommendations must be received by 

the OMB desk officer via one of the 

following transmissions: OMB, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (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 (44 U.S.C. 

3506(c)(2)(A)) requires federal agencies 

to publish a 30-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 that summarizes 

the following proposed collection(s) of 

information for public comment: 

Information Collection 

1. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Revision of the currently 

approved collection.; HIPAA 

Administrative Simplification (NonPrivacy/Security) Complaint Form; Use: 

The authority for administering and 

enforcing compliance with the nonprivacy/security Health Insurance 

Portability and Accountability Act 

(HIPAA) rules has been delegated to the 

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid 

Services (CMS). At present, CMS’ 

compliance and enforcement activities 

are primarily complaint-based. 

Although our enforcement efforts are 

focused on investigating complaints, 

they may also include conducting 

compliance reviews to determine if a 

covered entity is in compliance. 

Potential violations can come through a 

complaint form or a compliance review. 

This standard form collects 

identifying and contact information of 

the complainant, as well as, the 

identifying and contact information of 

the filed against entity (FAE). This 

information enables CMS to respond to 

the complainant and gather more 

information if necessary, and to contact 

the FAE to discuss the complaint and 

CMS’ findings. 

In addition to the identifying and 

contact information, the standard form 

collects a summary which outlines the 

nature of the complaint. This summary 

is used to determine the validity of the 

complaint, and to categorize the 

complaint as related to transactions, 

standards, code sets, unique identifiers, 

and/or operating rules. This ensures the 

appropriate direction of the complaint 

process and enables CMS to produce 

accurate reports regarding complaint 

activity. 

The revision form associated with this 

submission adds an option for filing 

complaints under Unique Identifier and 

Operating Rules. It also requests an 

email address for filed against entities, 

if available. 

The 60-day notice published on 

March 29, 2018. It must be noted that 

the files CMS posted on its PRA website 

were the incorrect files. CMS 

acknowledges and apologizes for this 

oversight. To allow the public extra time 

to review the correct form, CMS is 

extending the 30-day comment period to 

a 45-day comment period. It should be 

noted that where possible and practical, 

CMS reviewed and responded to 

commenters concerns that would still be 

present in the corrected version of the 

form. Form Number: CMS–10148 (OMB 

Control number: 0938–0948); 

Frequency: Occasionally; Affected 

Public: Individuals; Number of 

Respondents: 125; Total Annual 

Responses: 125; Total Annual Hours: 

125. (For policy questions regarding this 

collections contact Kevin Stewart at

[CMS–9110–N] 

Medicare and Medicaid Programs; 

Quarterly Listing of Program 

Issuances—April through June 2018 

AGENCY: Centers for Medicare & 

Medicaid Services (CMS), HHS. 

ACTION: Notice 

SUMMARY: This quarterly notice lists 

CMS manual instructions, substantive 

and interpretive regulations, and other 

Federal Register notices that were 

published from April through June 

2018, relating to the Medicare and 

Medicaid programs and other programs 

administered by CMS. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: It is 

possible that an interested party may 

need specific information and not be 

able to determine from the listed 

information whether the issuance or 

regulation would fulfill that need. 

Consequently, we are providing contact 

persons to answer general questions 

concerning each of the addenda 

published in this notice. 

I. Background 

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid 

Services (CMS) is responsible for 

administering the Medicare and 

Medicaid programs and coordination 

and oversight of private health 

insurance. Administration and oversight 

of these programs involves the 

following: (1) Furnishing information to 

Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries, 

health care providers, and the public; 

and (2) maintaining effective 

communications with CMS regional 

offices, state governments, state 

Medicaid agencies, state survey 

agencies, various providers of health 

care, all Medicare contractors that 

process claims and pay bills, National 

Association of Insurance Commissioners 

(NAIC), health insurers, and other 

stakeholders. To implement the various 

statutes on which the programs are 

based, we issue regulations under the 

authority granted to the Secretary of the 

Department of Health and Human 

Services under sections 1102, 1871, 

1902, and related provisions of the 

Social Security Act (the Act) and Public 

Health Service Act. We also issue 

various manuals, memoranda, and 

statements necessary to administer and 

oversee the programs efficiently. 

Section 1871(c) of the Act requires 

that we publish a list of all Medicare 

manual instructions, interpretive rules, 

statements of policy, and guidelines of 

general applicability not issued as 

regulations at least every 3 months in 

the Federal Register. 

II. Format for the Quarterly Issuance 

Notices 

This quarterly notice provides only 

the specific updates that have occurred 

in the 3-month period along with a 

hyperlink to the full listing that is 

available on the CMS website or the 

appropriate data registries that are used 

as our resources. This is the most 

current up-to-date information and will 

be available earlier than we publish our 

quarterly notice. We believe the website 

list provides more timely access for 

beneficiaries, providers, and suppliers. 

We also believe the website offers a 

more convenient tool for the public to 

find the full list of qualified providers 

for these specific services and offers 

more flexibility and ‘‘real time’’ 

accessibility. In addition, many of the 

websites have listservs; that is, the 

public can subscribe and receive 

immediate notification of any updates to 

the website. These listservs avoid the 

need to check the website, as 

notification of updates is automatic and 

sent to the subscriber as they occur. If 

assessing a website proves to be 

difficult, the contact person listed can 

provide information. 

III. How To Use the Notice 

This notice is organized into 15 

addenda so that a reader may access the 

subjects published during the quarter 

covered by the notice to determine 

whether any are of particular interest. 

We expect this notice to be used in 

concert with previously published 

notices. Those unfamiliar with a 

description of our Medicare manuals 

should view the manuals at http://

www.cms.gov/manuals.
