This notice sets out a summary of the

detailed information can be found in 

each collection’s supporting statement 

and associated materials (see 

ADDRESSES). 

CMS–10697 Medicare Coverage of 

Items and Services for Coverage with 

Evidence Development 

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 Collections 

1. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Reinstatement with change of a 

previously approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Medicare 

Coverage of Items and Services for 

Coverage with Evidence Development; 

Use: This Paperwork Reduction Act 

(PRA) package is for Coverage with 

Evidence Development (CED). As noted 

above, CMS has utilized the CED 

pathway since 2006 under 1862(a)(1)(E) 

of the Act. Early on, there were only 2 

CED National Coverage Determinations 

(NCDs) that required data collection in 

registries, all of which had publicly 

available data collection forms. 

Currently, there are over 120 approved 

CED studies involving complex data 

collections, most of which are 

proprietary to the study sponsor. 

There is no specific submission form 

required for a CED clinical study 

submission. We note that CMS may 

publish guidance, including templates, 

to provide information to manufacturers 

or other study sponsors to assist them in 

creating study protocols to satisfy CED 

requirements (for example, guidance on 

developing RWD study protocols). Any 

approved CED study submission should 

satisfy each of the criteria ‘‘1–17’’ 

provided in the CMS Coverage with 

Evidence Development guidance 

document. CMS uses the 17 criteria 

listed in the 2024 CED guidance

elements that could be eliminated and 

areas that could be clarified. 

Respondents: Federally and state 

recognized tribes, Native Pacific
