An Information Collection Request (ICR) is a federal agency's request for approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information from the public.
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), agencies must justify why the information is needed and how it will be used.
Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, or modify an information collection. Each ICR includes a description of the collection,
supporting materials and documentation (such as forms, surveys, or scripts), and proof that the agency has met the requirements of the PRA.
The ICR is submitted to the The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB for review and approval. OIRA grants approval for a maximum of three years, after
which the collection must be renewed through a new ICR submission.
ICRs are publicly available on RegInfo.gov, and additional guidance can be found in the FAQs.
Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and July 19, 2025.

[Medicaid] Medicaid Managed Care and Supporting Regulations (CMS-10855)
Key Information
Abstract
This collection of information request is associated with our September 26, 2024 (89 FR 79020) final rule (CMS-2434-F; RIN 0938-AU28). We intend to fold the following collection of information requirements and burden estimates under CMS-10108 (OMB 0938-0920). However, there are a number of conflicting activities that make this impractical at this time. To address those conflicts, as a stop gap measure we are proposing to submit the collection of information requirements and burden estimates under CMS-10855 (OMB 0938-1445). When ready we will be folding them to their proper place under CMS-10108 (OMB 0938-0920). Most Medicaid beneficiaries receive either all or part of their health care benefits through Medicaid managed care programs, including their prescription drug benefits. Because of the specialized nature of the prescription drug benefit, many of the Medicaid managed care plans (MCOs, PIHPS, or PAHPS) either own, or contract with, PBMs to administer the pharmacy benefit. In § 438.3(s), Medicaid MCOs, PIHPs, and PAHPs that provide coverage of covered outpatient drugs (CODs) would be required to structure any contract that it has with any subcontractor (e.g., PBM) for the delivery or administration of the COD benefit so that the subcontractor is required to report separately the amounts related to the incurred claims described in § 438.8(e)(2) to the managed care plan. The provisions would ensure that medical loss ratios (MLRs) reported by MCOs, PIHPs and PAHPs that use subcontractors in the delivery of COD coverage would be more accurate and transparent. The separate payment requirements would help States and managed care plans better understand whether they are appropriately and efficiently paying for the delivery of CODs, a significant part of which is funded by the Federal Government. |

Methods for Assuring Access to Covered Medicaid Services Under 42 CFR 447.203 and 447.204 (CMS-10391)
Key Information
Authorizing Statutes
42 Stat. 1902 Abstract
CMS-2328-FC requires a transparent, data-driven process for states to document that Medicaid beneficiaries have access to services covered under the Medicaid State plan to the extent that services are available to the general population in a geographic area. To meet the requirements of the final rule, states must conduct access review monitoring plans that measure: the extent that enrollee needs are met, the availability of care and qualified providers, service utilization and payment rate comparisons. The reviews will be conducted every three years for: primary care, physician specialists, behavorial health, and pre and post natal obstetric services (including labor and delivery). As states reduce or restructure provider payment rates or receive significant numbers of complaints from providers and beneficiaires about access to care, additional services must be included in the review plan and monitored for at least 3 years. We are soliciting comments on the services required for ongoing access reviews and the timelines associated with review and monitoring activities. The final rule also requires states have mechanisms for obtaining beneficiary and provider feedback on access to care, such as hotlines, surveys, ombudsman or other equivalent mechanisms and institute corrective action procedures should access issues be discovered through the access review and monitoring processes. Finally, when considering reductions to Medicaid payment rates the final rule requires states to undertake a process that gathers input from stakesholds and relies upon the information analyzed through the data reveiws on the proposed reduction or restructuring of Medicaid service payment rates. |

State Authorization
Key Information
Abstract
The Department of Education (the Department) requests extension of this information collection regarding Institutional Eligibility regulations in §600.9 – State Authorization. These regulations were a result of negotiated rulemaking in early 2019 and the requirements to these regulations have not changed. The regulations in §600.9(c)(2)(i) require an institution to determine in accordance with the institution’s policies and procedures in which State a student is located while enrolled in a distance education or correspondence course, under either State jurisdiction or when the institution participates in a State authorization reciprocity agreement under which it is covered. The updates to the policies and procedures are not reported to the Department nor is there a specified format for such information. The regulations in §600.9(c)(2)(ii) require an institution, upon request from the Secretary, provide the written documentation of its determination of a student’s location, including the basis for such determination. There is no specific form or format for the institutions to provide this information to the Department upon request. It is anticipated that an institution would provide the pertinent portions of the policy and procedures manual to respond to such a request from the Department, but it may provide the requested information in another method. |
