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) 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 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: Extension of a currently 

approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Attending 

Physicians Statement and 

Documentation of Medicare Emergency 

and Supporting Regulations in 42 CFR 

424.103; Use: 42 CFR 424.103(b) 

requires that before a nonparticipating 

hospital may be paid for emergency 

services rendered to a Medicare 

beneficiary, a statement must be 

submitted that is sufficiently 

comprehensive to support that an 

emergency existed. Form CMS–1771 

contains a series of questions relating to 

the medical necessity of the emergency. 

The attending physician must attest that 

the hospitalization was required under 

the regulatory emergency definition (42 

CFR 424.101) and give clinical 

documentation to support the claim. 

Form Number: CMS–1771 (OMB# 0938–

0023); Frequency: Yearly; Affected 

Public: Private sector—business or other 

for-profit and not-for-profit institutions; 

Number of Respondents: 100; Total 

Annual Responses: 200; Total Annual 

Hours: 50. 

2. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Revision of a currently 

approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Medicare Part B 

Drug and Biological Competitive 

Acquisition Program and Supporting 

Regulations in 42 CFR Sections 414.906, 

414.908, 414.910, 414.914, 414.916, and

2003 (MMA) provides an alternative

payment methodology for Part B 

covered drugs that are not paid on a cost 

or prospective payment basis. In 

particular, section 303(d) of the MMA 

amends Title XVIII of the Social 

Security Act by adding a new section 

1847(B), which establishes a 

competitive acquisition program for the 

acquisition of and payment for Part B 

covered drugs and biologicals furnished 

on or after January 1, 2006. Since its 

inception, additional legislation has 

augmented the CAP. Section 108 of the 

Medicare Improvements and Extension 

Act under Division B, Title I of the Tax 

Relief Health Care Act of 2006 (MIEA–

TRHCA) amended section 1847b(a)(3) of 

the Social Security Act and requires that 

CAP implement a post payment review 

process. This procedure is done to 

assure that payment is made for a drug 

or biological under this section only if 

the drug or biological has been 

administered to a beneficiary. Form 

Number: CMS–10145 (OMB# 0938–

0945); Frequency: Weekly; Affected 

Public: Private sector—business or other

3. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Revision of a currently

the Medical Adult Day Care Services 

Demonstration; Use: Section 703 of the 

Medicare Prescription Drug, 

Improvement and Modernization Act of 

2003 (Pub. L. 108–173) authorizes a 

three-year demonstration to conduct an 

evaluation of the clinical and costeffectiveness of providing medical adult 

day-care services as a substitute for a 

portion of home health services that 

would otherwise be provided in the 

beneficiary’s home. Delivering home 

health services in the adult day-care 

setting represents an expansion of 

coverage under the home health benefit 

under Medicare. The Demonstration 

aims to evaluate both the costs and the 

benefits of delivering home health 

services in the adult day-care setting. 

The evaluation will examine the 

achievements as well as the difficulties 

inherent in demonstration 

implementation. 

Telephone survey data from Medicare 

beneficiary’s interviews are to be 

completed during Phase II of the 

Evaluation of the Medical Adult DayCare Services Demonstration. The 

survey was developed based on 

collection of data from face-to-face 

interviews with beneficiaries from 

Phase I of the Demonstration evaluation.
