Inpatient Psychiatric Facility Quality Reporting Program (CMS-10432)

Key Information

Abstract

Pursuant to section 1886(s)(4)(C) of the Social Security Act as added and amended by sections 3401 and 10322 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) and further amended by section 4125(c) of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, starting in FY 2014 (that is, October 1, 2013 through September 30, 2014) and for subsequent fiscal years, IPFs paid under the IPF PPS shall submit pre-defined quality measures to the CMS. Such data shall be submitted in a form and manner, and at a time specified by the Secretary. Section 1886(s)(4)(A) of the Act provides that IPFs that fail to submit data on the selected quality measures and comply with other administrative requirements will have their IPF prospective payment system (PPS) payment updates reduced by 2.0 percentage points. This is a revision of the currently approved information collection request. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS’) quality reporting programs promote higher quality, more efficient healthcare for Medicare beneficiaries by collecting and reporting on quality-of-care metrics. This information is made available to consumers, both to empower Medicare beneficiaries and inform decision-making, as well as to incentivize healthcare facilities to make continued improvements. Specifically, CMS has implemented quality measure reporting programs for multiple settings, including for the Inpatient Psychiatric Facility (IPF) setting, to achieve its overarching priorities and initiatives, including the National Quality Strategy and the Meaningful Measure 2.0 Framework. In particular, Meaningful Measures 2.0 promotes innovation and modernization of all aspects of quality to better address health care priorities and gaps, emphasize digital quality measurement, and promote patient perspectives by supporting five interrelated goals: (1) empower consumers to make good health care choices through patient-directed quality measures and public transparency, (2) leverage quality measures to promote health equity and close gaps in care, (3) streamline quality measurement, (4) leverage measures to drive outcome improvement through public reporting and payment programs, and (5) improve quality measure efficiency by transitioning to digital measures and using advanced data analytics. The information collection requirements for the FY 2014 through FY 2028 program years (that is, data submitted from CY 2013 through CY 2027) are currently approved under OMB control number 0938-1171 (expiration date January 31, 2027). This request covers updates to the data collection requirements beginning with the FY 2026 payment determination (that is data submitted in CY 2025) and subsequent years.

Office of Community Services Affordable Housing and Supportive Services Demonstration Data Collection

Key Information

Abstract

The Affordable Housing and Supportive Services Demonstration (AHSSD) Data Collection (OMB #0970-0628) was originally approved in March 2024 and then revised in September 2024. The information collection includes individual-level survey instruments and on-site focus groups to collect information from program participants, onsite and virtual interviews to collect information from program staff, and report forms to capture service delivery and outcomes. The Office of Community Services (OCS) Affordable Housing and Supportive Services Demonstration (AHSSD) data collection was approved on March 1, 2024. The approved Quarterly Narrative PPR Guidance requires recipients to provide narrative updates on project activities, accomplishments, challenges, and implementation efforts with question prompts specific to the use of AHSSD funding for the project. The approved guidance document requires grant recipients to provide the AHSSD PPR information using the ACF Standard PPR form (OMB Control #0970-0406). A revision request for the ACF Standard PPR is currently submitted to OMB for review and approval. To minimize changes in reporting format and information collected from AHSSD grant recipients, OCS would like to align the AHSSD-specific PPR form with the currently approved Quarterly Narrative PPR Guidance by incorporating the guidance into the PPR document. This not only minimizes changes but also streamlines reporting by integrating AHSSD-specific prompts with the prompts from the original standard form.

Key Information

Abstract

The Rapid Surveys System is a series of surveys designed to support three major goals: 1) to provide CDC and other partners with time-sensitive data of known quality about emerging and priority health concerns, 2) to use these data collections to continue NCHS’ learning and evaluation of the quality of public health estimates generated from commercial online panels, and 3) to improve methods to appropriately communicate the fitness for use of public health estimates generated from commercial online panels. representativeness and accuracy. Each survey will be informed by consultation across CDC components and other partners. This Non substantive Change Request seeks approval for Round 8 of the Rapid Survey System (RSS). Content includes: artificial intelligence and help seeking behaviors; and selected content from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) including substance use prevalence, risk perception of certain substance use, recovery from drug and alcohol use, mental health problems, and suicidal thoughts, plans, and attempts.30-day FRN published 1/20/2026

Reparations Complaint, CFTC Form 30

Key Information

Abstract

Pursuant to Section 14 of the Commodity Exchange Act, members of the public may apply to the Commission to seek damages against Commission registrants for alleged violations of the Act and/or Commission regulations. The legislative intent of this reparations program was to provide a low-cost, speedy, and effective forum for the resolution of customer complaints and to sanction individuals and firms found to have violated the Act and/or any regulations. In 1984, the Commission promulgated Part 12 of the Commission regulations to administer Section 14. Rule 12.13 provides the standards and procedures for filing a reparations complaint. Specifically, subparagraph (b) describes the form and content requirements of a complaint. CFTC Form 30, created in or about 1984, mirrors the requirements set forth in subparagraph (b). The form was created to assist customers--who are typically pro se and non-lawyers--and also to provide proper notice to respondents of the charges against them. In November 2017, the Commission requested, and was granted, an OMB number to this PRA collection based on Form 30. This request represents a renewal of the current collection.

Intermittent Survey of Businesses

Key Information

Abstract

The survey data are used to gather information to enable the Federal Reserve System (System) to carry out its policy and operational responsibilities. Under the guidance of the Board, Reserve Banks survey business contacts as economic developments warrant. Usually, these voluntary surveys are conducted using an online survey tool, such as Qualtrics, to collect responses from purchasing managers, economists, or other knowledgeable individuals at selected, relevant businesses, and occasionally state and local governments. Occasionally, the survey will be conducted via telephone or email. The frequency and content of the questions, as well as the entities contacted, vary depending on developments in the economy. These surveys are conducted to provide Board members and Reserve Bank presidents real-time insights into economic conditions. The Board tailors these survey questions to match current concerns and interests, but they are not meant to supplant the more rigorous, existing economic reporting. The Board collects aggregate responses from the Reserve Banks and then distributes the information to Board members and Reserve Bank presidents.

Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program Data Reports: Demographic and Service Utilization, Grantee Performance Measures and Quarterly Performance Reports

Key Information

Abstract

Section 511 Title V of the Social Security Act created the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program and authorized the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to award grants to Indian tribes (or a consortium of Indian tribes), tribal organizations, or urban Indian organizations. The most recent reauthorization of the MIECHV program set aside 6 percent of the total MIECHV program appropriation for grants to tribal entities and indicates that the Tribal MIECHV grants, to the greatest extent practicable, be consistent with the requirements of the MIECHV grants to states and territories and include conducting a needs assessment and establishing benchmarks. The Administration for Children and Families Office of Early Childhood Development (ECD) is in the process of requesting a 3-year extension with revisions to the information collection approved under OMB number 0970-0614. Currently this collection includes the Demographic and Service Utilization Data Report (DSUR), the Performance Measurement Data Report (PMR), and the Quarterly Performance Report (QPR). The proposed revision includes the discontinuation of the Quarterly Performance Report (QPR). The 60-day comment period began on February 25, 2026 (91 FR 9282). In anticipation of this discontinuation, ECD is working with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) to establish a smaller set of operational questions that will be collected through monthly calls, which are being submitted concurrent to this request under the ACF Umbrella Generic for Performance Progress Reports (PPR) (OMB #: 0970-0490).

Generic Clearance for Federal Student Aid Customer Satisfaction Surveys and Focus Groups Master Plan

Key Information

Abstract

The Higher Education Amendments of 1998 established Federal Student Aid (FSA) as the first Performance-Based Organization (PBO). One purpose of the PBO is to improve service to students and other participants in the student financial assistance programs authorized under title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, including making those programs more understandable to students and their parents. To do that, FSA has committed to ensuring that all people receive service that matches or exceeds the best service available in the private sector. Requirements of the legislation establish an on-going need for FSA to be engaged in an interactive process of collecting information and using it to improve program services and processes. The use of customer surveys and focus groups allows FSA to gather that information from the affected parties in a timely manner to improve communications with our product users.

Motorcycle Crash Avoidance Technology Review

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request (ICR) is to seek approval for a one-time, voluntary, and anonymous survey of motorcycle riders to obtain consumer-reported feedback and perspectives on the use and availability of advanced crash avoidance motorcycle technologies. At this time, there is no information regarding consumer use and understanding of current advanced safety technology on motorcycles. To gain perspective on U.S. motorcyclist consumers, NHTSA will survey a convenience sample of individuals who live in the U.S., are licensed to operate a motorcycle, own at least one motorcycle, and ride it at least six times a year. Beyond these eligibility requirements, respondents will not be limited by age, geographic location, income, sex, etc. We will ask survey respondents about themselves (e.g., characteristics, riding behavior), knowledge about current and proposed motorcycle technologies, as well as their willingness to use these technologies. This information collection request is for three is reporting collections: (1) an eligibility questionnaire; (2) an informed consent form; and (3) the survey questionnaire. Results from the anonymous questionnaire will be compiled into descriptive statistical summaries (numeric data) and thematic codes and narratives (text-based data from open-ended questions) and incorporated into a report will be published and available to the general public via the National Transportation Library. The results of the information collection will help NHTSA better understand consumer-based barriers and facilitators to advanced motorcycle crash avoidance technology deployment. By understanding these barriers and facilitators, NHTSA can better develop related policy and consumer education materials to improve safety through the increased uptake and safe use of advanced technologies for motorcycles. The data collection requires IRB approval and has received it.

Annual Alternative Fuel Vehicle Acquisition Report for State Government and Alternative Fuel Provider Fleets

Key Information

Abstract

The information is critical to allowing DOE to determine: (1) whether alternative fuel provider and State government fleets are in compliance with the alternative fueled vehicle acquisition mandates of Sections 501 and 507(o) of the Energy Policy Act of 1992; (2) whether such fleets should be allocated credits under Section 508, and (3) whether those fleets that opted into the alternative compliance program under Section 514 are in compliance with applicable requirements. Regulated entities, being covered State and alternative fuel provider fleets, provide this information. Because DOE has the authority under Section 512 to impose civil penalties and fines on violators, information collection is essential to determine whether alternative fuel provider and State government fleets are in compliance with the various statutory and regulatory provisions.

Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) Program: Standards for 2026 and 2027, Partial Waiver of 2025 Cellulosic Biofuel Volume Requirement, and Other Changes (Proposed Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

The proposed volume standards and associated percentage standards for 2026 and 2027 do not add to the burdens already estimated under existing, approved ICRs for the RFS program. This proposed rule proposes recordkeeping and reporting for domestic renewable fuel producers to implement the proposed RIN reduction for import-based renewable fuel. We anticipate the increase in burden related to identifying feedstock as foreign or domestic will be very small because the parties already are required to keep underlying records and provide reports for the RFS program, generally. General recordkeeping and reporting for the RFS program is contained in the Renewable Fuel Standard program ICR, OMB Control Number 2060-0725 (expires November 30, 2025).

Form S-3 - Registration Statement

Key Information

Abstract

The Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”) was designed to prevent misrepresentation, deceit and other fraudulent acts and practices in the sale of securities. Section 5 of the Securities Act requires that a registration statement be filed before any security is publicly offered, and that the registration statement be effective before any security is sold. Section 7 of the Securities Act and Schedule A outlines the information that must be contained in a registration statement. Section 7 gives the Commission the authority to vary such disclosure for various classes of issuers and securities. The Commission has used its statutory authority to develop a number of specialized registration statement forms that tailor disclosure requirements based on the type of offering, issuer, or other parameters, thereby eliminating burdensome and unnecessary requirements while maintaining investor protection. Form S-3 (17 CFR 239.13) is a short-form securities registration statement that is available to issuers that meet certain registrant and transaction eligibility requirements under the form. The purpose of the information collection is to provide disclosure of material financial and other information with which investors may evaluate the merits of securities in order to make investment decisions.
