Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 21 / Tuesday, February 1, 2022 / Notices 5485 

publishing this notice that summarizes 

the following proposed collection(s) of 

information for public comment: 

1. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Revision of a currently 

approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Cooperative 

Agreement to Support Navigators in 

Federally-facilitated Exchanges; Use: 

Section 1311(i) of the PPACA requires 

Exchanges to establish a Navigator grant 

program under which it awards grants 

to eligible individuals and entities (as 

described in Section 1311(i)(2) of the 

PPACA and 45 CFR 155.210(a) and (c)) 

applying to serve consumers in States 

with a FFE. Navigators assist consumers 

by providing education about and 

facilitating selection of qualified health 

plans (QHPs) within the Exchanges, as 

well as other required duties. Entities 

and individuals cannot serve as 

federally certified Navigators and carry 

out the required duties without 

receiving federal cooperative agreement 

funding. On July 1, 2021, HHS 

published the Updating Payment 

Parameters, Section 1332 Waiver 

Implementing Regulations, and 

Improving Health Insurance Markets for 

2022 and Beyond Proposed Rule 

proposed rule. The proposed regulations 

would amend federal regulations at 45 

CFR 155.210(e)(9) to reinstitute the 

requirement that FFE Navigators 

provide consumers with information 

and assistance on access, affordability 

and certain post-enrollment topics, such 

as the eligibility appeals process, the 

Exchange-related components of the 

Premium Tax Credit (PTC) 

reconciliation process, and the basic 

concepts and rights of health coverage 

and how to use it. 

Under the Terms and Conditions of 

the Navigator program cooperative 

agreements, awardees must provide 

progress reports on a weekly, monthly, 

quarterly and annual basis during the 

cooperative agreement period of 

performance, and a final report at the 

end of the period of performance. 

Awardees will submit their progress 

reports electronically to CMS staff for 

evaluation and analysis. The results of 

this evaluation will provide feedback on 

the effectiveness of the Navigator 

program, so that HHS and CMS 

leadership may evaluate the 

effectiveness of the program and address 

any areas that need revisions. CMS will 

also use the information collected from 

Navigator grant awardees to inform the 

public about the availability of 

application and enrollment assistance 

services from designated organizations.
