Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Submission for OMB 

Review; Comment Request 

AGENCY: Centers for Medicare & 

Medicaid Services, HHS. 

In compliance with the requirement 

of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the 

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid 

Services (CMS), Department of Health 

and Human Services, is publishing the 

following summary of proposed 

collections for public comment. 

Interested persons are invited to send 

comments regarding this 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 function; 

(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: Revision of a currently 

approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Notice of Denial 

of Medical Coverage (or Payment). Use: 

Form CMS–10003 is currently separated 

into a Notice of Denial of Medical 

Coverage (NDMC) and a Notice of 

Denial of Payment (NDP). The revised 

notice that is the subject of this PRA 

package combines the NDMC and the 

NDP notices and incorporates text to be 

inserted if the Medicare health plan 

enrollee receives full benefits under a 

State Medical Assistance (Medicaid) 

program being managed by the plan and 

the plan denies a service or item that is 

also subject to Medicaid appeal rights. 

Form Number: CMS–10003 (OCN: 

0938–0829). Frequency: Occasionally; 

Affected Public: Private sector (business 

or other for-profit and not-for-profit 

institutions). Number of Respondents: 

665. Total Annual Responses: 

6,960,410. Total Annual Hours: 

1,159,604. (For policy questions 

regarding this collection contact 

Kathryn McCann Smith at 410–786– 

7623. For all other issues call 410–786– 

1326.) 

2. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Revision of a currently 

approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Long Term Care 

Hospital (LCTH) Continuity Assessment 

Record and Evaluation (CARE) Data Set; 

Use: Section 3004 of the Affordable Care 

Act authorizes the establishment of a 

new quality reporting program for long 

term care hospitals (LTCHs). The LTCHs 

that fail to submit quality measure data 

may be subject to a 2 percentage point 

reduction in their annual update to the 

standard Federal rate for discharges 

occurring during a rate year. In the FY 

2013 IPPS/LTCH PPS final rule (76 FR 

51743 through 51756), CMS retained 

three National Quality Forum (NQF) 

measures (NQF #0678, NQF #0138 and 

NQF #0139) and adopted two new 

measure (NQF #0680 and NQF#0431) 

for the FY 2016 payment determination. 

The NQF #0680 is the percent of 

residents or patients who were assessed 

and appropriately given the seasonal 

influenza vaccine (short-stay). The NQF 

#0431 is influenza vaccination coverage 

among healthcare personnel. The data 

collection for these two NQF endorsed 

measures will start January 1, 2014. 

The LTCH CARE Data Set was 

developed specifically for use in LTCHs 

for data collection of NQF #0678 

Pressure Ulcer measures beginning 

October 1, 2012, with the understanding 

that the data set would expand in future 

rulemaking years with the adoption of 

additional quality measures. Relevant 

data elements contained in other wellknown and clinically established data 

sets, including but not limited to the 

Minimum Data Set 3.0 (MDS 3.0) and 

CARE, were incorporated into the LTCH
