    In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
3501 et seq.), the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA), 
Department of Health and Human Services, has submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) the following proposals for the collection 
of information. Interested persons are invited to send comments 
regarding the burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of 
information, including any of the following subjects: (1) the necessity 
and utility of the proposed information collection for the proper 
performance of the agency's functions; (2) the accuracy of the 
estimated burden; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information to be collected; and (4) the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology to 
minimize the information collection burden.
    1. Type of Information Collection Request: New collection; Title of 
Information Collection: Managed Care Organization, Incentive 
Arrangement Disclosure Form and Supporting Regulations 42 CFR 417.479, 
417.500, 434.44, 434.67, 434.70, 1003.100, 1003.101, 1003.103,

the Federal Register on 12/31/96, disclosed to the public that the 
information collection requirements referenced in OMC-10-F, would be 
submitted to OMB for emergency review upon publication of the rule. 
However, Section V of final rule OMC-10 neglected to denote that the 
forms used to capture the information collection requirements 
referenced in OMC-10 would also be submitted to OMB as part of the 
emergency review. These forms which will be used to demonstrate and 
monitor compliance with statute governing physician incentives under 
Medicare and Medicaid managed care organizations, were created in an 
extensive cooperative effort with the American Association of Health 
Plans, State Medicaid Agency representatives, and the Medicaid Managed 
Care Technical Advisory group. Therefore, we are correcting this 
oversight and are requesting comment on the forms and supporting 
regulations. These forms are available for inspection on the HCFA 
website, on the Internet, at http://www.hcfa.gov; Frequency: Annually; 
Affected Public: Business or other for profit, not for profit 
institutions, state, local or tribal government, and federal 
government; Number of Respondents: 450; Total Annual Responses: 450;
