77008 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 246 / Tuesday, December 23, 2014 / Notices 

Appeals & Reimbursement. Upon OMB 

approval, 0920–1001 will be 

discontinued. The provisions in the 

interim final rule that contain data 

collection requirements are: 

Section 88.5 Application process– 

status as a WTC responder. This section 

informs applicants who believe they 

meet the eligibility criteria for a WTC 

responder how to apply for enrollment 

in the WTC Health Program, and 

describes the types of documentation 

the WTC Program Administrator will 

accept as proof of eligibility. We expect 

that to receive approximately 4,500 

applications per year. The burden table 

reflects the annualized total burden 

broken into the four separate applicant 

groups: We estimate that 45 Fire 

Department of New York (FDNY) 

responders (1% of applicants); 2,475 

general responders (55%); 630 

Pentagon/Shanksville responders (14%); 

and 1,350 survivors (30%) will submit 

applications. The burden estimates for 

these three different forms are: FDNY = 

23 hours; general responders = 1,238 

hours; Pentagon/Shanksville responders 

= 315 hours; survivors = 405 hours. 

Section 88.11 Appeals regarding 

eligibility determination—responders 

and survivors. This section establishes 

the process for appeals regarding 

eligibility determinations. Of the 4,500 

applications we expect to receive per 

year, we expect that 10% will fail due 

to ineligibility. We further assume that 

10% of those individuals, or 45 

respondents, will appeal the decision. 

The burden estimate is 23 hours. 

Section 88.15 Appeals regarding 

treatment. This section establishes the 

timeline and process to appeal the 

Administrator’s determinations 

regarding treatment decisions. HHS 

estimates that Program participants will 

request certification for 20,000 health 

conditions each year. Of those 20,000, 

we expect that .01 percent (200) will be 

denied certification by the WTC 

Program Administrator. We further 

expect that such a denial will be 

appealed 30 percent of the time. Of the 

projected 451,472 enrollees who will 

receive medical care, it is estimated that 

.05% percent (26) will appeal decisions 

of unnecessary treatment. We estimate 

that the appeals letter will take no more 

than 30 minutes. 

Section 88.16 Reimbursement for 

travel expenses. This section established 

the process for members of the 

Nationwide Provider Network (NPN) 

who travel more than 250 miles to a 

nationwide network provider for 

medically necessary treatment may be 

provided necessary and reasonable 

transportation and other expenses. 

These individuals may submit a travel 

refund request form, which should take 

respondents 10 minutes. HHS expects 

no more than 10 claims per year. 

The reporting and record keeping 

requirements contained in these 

regulations are used by NIOSH to carry 

out its responsibilities related to the 

implementation of the WTC Health 

Program as required by law. The 

burdens imposed have been reduced to 

the absolute minimum considered 

necessary to permit NIOSH to carry out 

the purpose of the legislation, i.e., to 

implement the WTC Health Program. 

This emergency data collection is 

warranted because it is essential that 

individuals who wish to be enrolled, 

apply to the WTC Health Program, 

appeal a determination made by the 

WTC Program Administrator, or submit 

a claim for reimbursement have the 

opportunity to do so as soon as the 

eligibility criteria are established with 

the publication of this interim final rule. 

The total annualized burden is 2,319. 

There are no costs to respondents other 

than their time.

information in drop down menu format 

for data such as: degree, occupation, 

affiliations with organizations and 

institutions that serve special 

populations, and demographic 

information that may be voluntarily 

provided by a potential reviewer. 

These data elements will help CB find 

and select expert grant reviewers for 

objective review committees. The webbased system will permit reviewers to 

access and update their information at 

will and as needed. The RRM will be 

accessible by the general public via
