CMS Opens Second Comment Period on Paperwork Reduction Act Information Collection Request
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has published a Federal Register notice announcing a second public comment period on a proposed information collection under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The notice invites stakeholders to comment on burden estimates, necessity and utility of the proposed data collection, accuracy of burden estimates, and methods to reduce reporting burden through automation or other means. Comments may address how the information collection affects agency operations and whether alternative collection methods could reduce administrative burden. This is a standard procedural notice required before OMB can approve federal data collection activities.
Managed care organizations subject to federal reporting requirements can comment on burden estimates and propose alternative collection methods before OMB finalizes data collection requirements that may affect operational and compliance costs.
