[NCCDPHP] Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS)

Key Information

Abstract

The BRFSS is a coordinated system of customized surveys conducted by U.S. states, territories, and the District of Columbia. Respondents are adults 18 years of age and older. Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) surveys are conducted in collaboration with U.S. states, territories, and the District of Columbia. The surveys will produce state- or sub-state jurisdiction-level data about health-related risk behaviors, chronic health conditions, use of preventive services, and emerging health issues. CDC also creates a national level dataset that is used by HHS to evaluate its progress toward Healthy People 2020 goals and other policy needs. To ensure that BRFSS content is relevant to the current needs of BRFSS partners, CDC updates selected items in the core questionnaire and/or the optional modules on an annual basis. This Non-Substantive Change Request is submitted for changes in optional modules, including minor changes in wording and/or response options and adding new questions. There is no change to the previously approved burden.

Consumer Price Index Commodities and Services Survey

Key Information

Abstract

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid by consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services. Each month, BLS data collectors called economic assistants, visit or call thousands of retail stores, service establishments, rental units, and doctors' offices, all over the United States to obtain information on the prices of the thousands of items used to track and measure price changes in the CPI. The collection of price data from retail establishments is essential for the timely and accurate calculation of the commodities and services component of the CPI. The CPI is then widely used as a measure of inflation, indicator of the effectiveness of government economic policy, deflator for other economic series, and as a means of adjusting dollar values.

FERC-923, Communication of Operational Information between Natural Gas Pipelines and Electric Transmission Operators

Key Information

Abstract

Natural gas continues to be the single largest fuel source for electricity generation in the United States. This trend is expected to continue, resulting in greater interdependence between the natural gas and electric industries. Several events over the last few years demonstrated the crucial interconnection between natural gas pipelines and electric transmission operators and the need for robust communication between these industry sectors to ensure that both systems operate safely and effectively for the benefit of their customers. The applicable regulations are in 18 CFR: • Section 38.2, which applies to any public utility that owns, operates, or controls facilities used for the transmission of electric energy in interstate commerce; and • Section 284.12(b)(4)(i), which applies to any interstate pipeline. These regulations authorize public utilities providing transmission service and interstate natural gas pipelines to share non-public, operational information when such information is for the purpose of promoting reliable service or operational planning.

Attending Physician’s Certification of Continuing Workers’ Compensation Disability

Key Information

Abstract

The information collected on OWCP Form CA-21 will be used by claims examiners for OWCP to determine eligibility for and the computation of benefits. The claimant will use this form to obtain medical documentation from the attending physician to support continued disability. The attending physician completes this form based on their examination of the claimant. The medical evidence is used to determine whether the claimant is entitled to continued compensation for disability for work. The work capacity noted by the attending physician will be used by rehabilitation specialists and nurses to assist partially disabled employees to return to suitable employment. Without the requested information, entitlements to an eligible beneficiary could be denied or delayed, or benefits could be authorized at an incorrect rate, resulting in an underpayment or overpayment of compensation.

Consent to Receive Employee Benefit Plan Disclosures Electronically

Key Information

Abstract

The Department's 2002 regulatory safe harbor at 29 CFR 2520.104b-1(c) describes the circumstances under which the administrator of an employee benefit plan may furnish required disclosure documents through electronic media. The information collection contains a disclosure requirement and a requirement that participants affirmatively consent to electronic disclosure or confirm consent electronically. The consent serves to demonstrate to the plan administrator that an individual has the ability to access information in the electronic form that will be used for disclosure purposes. Such confirmation will ensure the compatibility of the hardware and software between the individual and the plan, and will also serve to demonstrate that the administrator has taken appropriate and necessary measures reasonably calculated to ensure that the system for furnishing documents results in actual receipt, as required under ERISA. Lastly, where applicable, the consent provides a means for the individual to provide the plan with the correct email address to facilitate the efficiencies that may arise from the use of electronic technologies where appropriate. In 2020, the Department issued a final rule providing a safe harbor (Notice-and-Access Safe Harbor) for plan administrators who wish to satisfy ERISA's delivery requirements for retirement plan documents by posting them on a website and notifying workers of the online availability of such documents (29 CFR 2520.104b-31). Retirement plan administrators may satisfy their obligation to furnish ERISA-required disclosures by making the information accessible online and furnishing a notice of internet availability of these disclosures to covered individuals. The notice of internet availability must be sent to the electronic address of the participant, for example to the participant's email address and include, among other things, a brief description of the document being posted online, a website address where the document is posted, and instructions for requesting a free paper copy or electing paper delivery in the future. It must be sent each time a retirement plan disclosure is posted to the internet website. To prevent “email overload,” the 2020 final rule allows a notice of internet availability to incorporate or combine other notices of internet availability in limited circumstances.

Key Information

Abstract

The Department has promulgated regulations governing the content, style, and format, and furnishing of Summary Plan Descriptions (SPDs), Summary of Material Modifications (SMMs), and Summary of Material Reductions (SMRs) at 29 CFR 102-2 (Style and Format of Summary Plan Descriptions); 29 CFR 2520.102-3 (Contents of Summary Plan Descriptions); 29 CFR 2520.102-4 (Option for Different Summary Plan Descriptions); 29 CFR 2520.2520.104b-1 (Disclosure); 29 CFR 2520.104b-2 (Summary Plan Descriptions); 29 CFR 104b-3 (Summary of Material Modifications to the Plan and Changes in the Information Required to be Included in the Summary Plan Description); and 29 CFR 104(b)-(4) (Alternative Methods of Compliance for Furnishing the Summary Plan Description and Summaries of Material Modifications of a Pension Plan to a Retired Participant, a Separated Participant, and a Beneficiary Receiving Benefits). These regulations set standards for the content, style, and format of these disclosure documents, the methods of furnishing that will satisfy the statutory disclosure requirements, and alternative methods of compliance.

Defined Benefit Plan Annual Funding Notice

Key Information

Abstract

In 2012, Congress enacted the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21). The law provides funding interest rate stabilization for single employer defined benefit (DB) plans, effective for plan years beginning on and after January 1, 2012. MAP-21 set a floor (or ceiling) for the interest rates that single employer defined benefit plan administrators generally are required to use to calculate contributions. Under the rules, the generally required interest rates are limited to rates that are within a specified range, or corridor, above or below a 25-year average for the rates. The Multiemployer Pension Reform Act of 2014 (MPRA), Public Law 113-235 (2014), added new disclosure requirements to section 101(f)(2)(B) of ERISA relating to the new multiemployer funding classification of “critical and declining status.” A plan is in critical and declining status if it is in critical status and is projected to become insolvent with 15 years (or within 20 years if a special rule applies). MPRA requires the annual funding notice of critical and declining status plans to include the projected date of insolvency; a clear statement that such insolvency may result in benefit reductions; and a statement describing whether the plan sponsor has taken legally permitted actions to prevent insolvency. These requirements were added to the final regulation and the multiemployer plan model notice to reflect the MPRA amendments to ERISA section 101(f) and are included in the hour burden to complete that notice. MPRA requires the annual funding notice of critical and declining status plans to include the projected date of insolvency; a clear statement that such insolvency may result in benefit reductions; and a statement describing whether the plan sponsor has taken legally permitted actions to prevent insolvency. These requirements were added to the final regulation and the multiemployer plan model notice to reflect the MPRA amendments to ERISA section 101(f). On February 2, 2015, the Department published final rules implementing ERISA section 101(f). As required by statute, the final rule requires the plan administrator of a defined benefit pension plan that is subject to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation's Insurance Program to furnish a funding notice annually to participants, beneficiaries, labor organizations representing such participants or beneficiaries, employers obligated to make contributions to a multiemployer plan, and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC). Large plans must furnish the notice by the 120th day following the end of the plan year to which the notice relates. A small plan may furnish a funding notice on or before the due date, with extensions, of the plan's Form 5500 Annual Return/Report filed with the Department.

Form SF-3

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 and Schedule A of the Securities Act outline the information that must be contained in a registration statement. Section 7 gives the Securities and Exchange Commission (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 SF-3 (17 CFR 239.45) is the form used to register a shelf offering of asset-backed securities (“ABS”). The Commission requires ABS issuers to use Form SF-3 for shelf offerings—rather than Form S-3 (17 CFR 239.13)—because the process, criteria, and disclosure for shelf offerings of ABS differs from other types of securities offerings.

Requirements Related to Surprise Billing: Qualifying Payment Amount, Notice and Consent, Disclosure on Patient Protections Against Balance Billing, and State Law Opt-in (CMS-10780)

Key Information

Abstract

On December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (Pub. L. 116-260), which included the No Surprises Act, was signed into law. The No Surprises Act provides federal protections against surprise billing and limits out-of-network cost sharing under many of the circumstances in which surprise medical bills arise most frequently. The 2021 interim final regulations “Requirements Related to Surprise Billing; Part I” (2021 interim final regulations) issued by the Departments of Health and Humans Services, the Department of Labor, the Department of Treasury, and the Office of Personnel Management, implement provisions of the No Surprises Act that apply to group health plans, health insurance issuers offering group or individual health insurance coverage, and carriers in the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program that provide protections against balance billing and out-of-network cost sharing with respect to emergency services, non-emergency services furnished by nonparticipating providers at certain participating health care facilities, and air ambulance services furnished by nonparticipating providers of air ambulance services. The 2021 interim final regulations prohibit nonparticipating providers, emergency facilities, and providers of air ambulance services from balance billing participants, beneficiaries, and enrollees in certain situations unless they satisfy certain notice and consent requirements. The No Surprises Act and the 2021 interim final regulations require group health plans and issuers of health insurance coverage to provide information about qualifying payment amounts to nonparticipating providers and facilities and to provide disclosures on patient protections against balance billing to participants, beneficiaries and enrollees. Self-insured plans opting in to State law are required to provide a disclosure to participants. Certain nonparticipating providers and nonparticipating emergency facilities may are provide participants, beneficiaries, and enrollees with notice and obtain their consent to waive balance billing protections, provided certain requirements are met. In addition, certain providers and facilities are required to provide disclosures on patient protections against balance billing to participants, beneficiaries and enrollees.

Rule 17g-2 Records to be made and retained by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations

Key Information

Abstract

Rule 17g-2 implements certain statutory provisions of the Credit Rating Agency Reform Act of 2006 by requiring a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or "NRSRO" to make and retain certain records relating to its business and to retain certain other business records, if such records are made. The rule also prescribes the time periods and manner in which all these records must be retained. The collections of information in Rule 17g-2 are designed to allow the Commission to determine whether an NRSRO continues to meet the requirements for registration and is complying with applicable laws and regulations. In particular, the collections of information in Rule 17g-2 will assist the Commission in effectively monitoring, through its examination function, whether an NRSRO is conducting its activities in accordance with Section 15E of the Exchange Act, and applicable Exchange Act rules under the Rating Agency Act.

Form SF-1

Key Information

Abstract

The Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) was enacted in order to provide full and fair disclosure with respect to publicly offered securities and to prevent fraud in connection with such offerings. The Securities Act carries out this purpose by requiring the filing of a registration statement in connection with public distributions of securities by issuers and their control persons. Schedule A of the Securities Act specifies the general types of information that must be disclosed in registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The Commission has authority, under Section 19 of the Securities Act, to promulgate rules to carry out the provisions of the Securities Act. Form SF-1 (17 CFR 239.44) is the form used to register an offering of asset-backed securities (“ABS”). The Commission requires ABS issuers to use Form SF-1 for offerings of ABS—rather than Form S-1 (17 CFR 239.11)—because the process, criteria, and disclosure for registered offerings of ABS differs from other types of securities offerings.
