Minimum Data Set 3.0 Nursing Home and Swing Bed Prospective Payment System (PPS) for the Collection of Data Related to the Patient Driven Payment Model and the Skilled Nursing Facility QRP (CMS-10387)

Key Information

Abstract

The Minimum Data Set (MDS) is a uniform instrument used in every Medicare/Medicaid certified nursing home in the United States to assess resident condition. It was developed in response to the Landmark Institute of Medicine (IOM) Report on Nursing Home Quality in 1987 where the MDS was seen as a critical component in efforts to improve the quality of care in nursing homes. The Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1987 (OBRA 1987) also set forth new provisions for Medicare and Medicaid related to new standards for care in the nursing home setting. From its inception, the MDS was intended to serve several purposes: (1) Collect data to inform care plans (2) To generate quality indicators to evaluate nursing homes and guide improvement interventions (3) To serve as a data source for nursing home payment systems. Pursuant to sections 4204(b) and 4214(d) of OBRA 1987, the current requirements related to the submission and retention of resident assessment data are not subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), but it has been determined that requirements for SNF staff performing, encoding and patient assessment data necessary administer the payment rate methodology described in 413.337, are subject to the PRA. The SNF QRP was established in CMS-1622-F (August 4, 2015; 80 FR 46390) and began collecting data from SNFs in fiscal year (FY) 2016 using the MDS. As described in section 1899B (b)(1)(B) of the Social Security Act (the Act), SNFs are required to submit standardized patient assessment data with respect to the following categories: • Functional Status • Cognitive Function • Special Services, Treatments, and Interventions • Medical Conditions and Comorbidities • Impairments • Other categories deemed necessary and appropriate by the Secretary Both the Patient Driven Payment Model (PDPM) in the SNF PPS and the SNF QRP collect data through the MDS 3.0. The PDPM was described and adopted for SNFs and Swing Beds in CMS-1696-F (August 8, 2018; 83 FR 39162). This package is a request for a revision to the current Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment instrument for the Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF). This package represents a request from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to implement the MDS 3.0 v1.18.11 beginning October 1, 2023 to October 1, 2026 in order to meet the requirements of policies finalized in the Federal Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) Prospective Payment System (PPS) final rule (CMS-1718-F, RIN 0938-AT75). A PRA package was submitted at the time of the finalized policies and approved on 11/22/2019, but the compliance date for the finalized policies (10/01/2020) was delayed due to the COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE). Please note, however, the burden was never retracted, and the implementation of the instrument was simply delayed. While there has been no change in assessment-level burden since the approval of the MDS 3.0 v1.17.2, there has been a change in total burden since 2019 when the package was originally approved due to a decrease in the number of MDS assessments completed and a change in the hourly rate for clinicians completing the assessment.

Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) 2024-25 through 2026-27

Key Information

Abstract

The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) seeks authorization from OMB to make a change to the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) data collection. IPEDS is a web-based data collection system designed to collect basic data from all postsecondary institutions in the United States and the other jurisdictions. The IPEDS data collection enables the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) to report on key dimensions of postsecondary education such as enrollments, degrees and other awards earned, tuition and fees, average net price, student financial aid, graduation rates, student outcomes, revenues and expenditures, faculty salaries, and staff employed. The IPEDS web-based data collection system was implemented in 2000-01. In 2022-23, IPEDS collected data from 5,983 Title IV postsecondary institutions in the United States and the other jurisdictions. All Title IV institutions are required to respond to IPEDS (Section 490 of the Higher Education Amendments of 1992 [P.L. 102-325]). IPEDS allows other (non-Title IV) institutions to participate on a voluntary basis; approximately 200 non-Title IV institutions elect to respond each year. Institution closures and mergers have led to a decrease in the number of institutions in the IPEDS universe over the past few years. Due to these fluctuations, combined with the addition of new institutions, NCES uses rounded estimates for the number of institutions in the respondent burden calculations for the upcoming years (estimated 6,000 Title IV institutions plus 200 non-title IV institutions for a total of 6,200 institutions estimated to submit IPEDS data during the 2024-25 through 2026-27 IPEDS data collections). IPEDS data are available to the public through the College Navigator and IPEDS Use the Data websites. The current clearance covers the 2022-23 through 2024-25 collections and is due to expire on August 31, 2025. We are requesting to make changes to multiple survey components and other updates to the identification, cross-cutting terminology, and the glossary. The largest changes in this package are (1) the addition of a new Cost (CST) survey component, which combines components taken from the Student Financial Aid (SFA) and Institutional Characteristics (IC) components and combines them with added questions to determine how and make publicly available more information about how postsecondary institutions ask for information above and beyond the FAFSA; and (2) the planned elimination of the Academic Libraries (AL) survey beginning in the 2025-26 administration. As part of the 30D public comment period review, NCES has added an Appendix E, containing NCES responses to 60D public comments. Further, NCES requests that IPEDS data submitters and other stakeholders respond to the directed questions found in Appendix D of this submission.

Enhancing HIV Care of Women, Infants, Children and Youth Building Capacity through Communities of Practice

Key Information

Abstract

HRSA aims to increase delivery of evidence-based interventions that enhance client outcomes, increase the skill level of the HIV workforce providing care and treatment to Women, Infants, Children and Youth (WICY), and involve partnerships for dissemination of best practices to Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part D participants. To that end, HRSA seeks to implement a Communities of Practice (CoP) platform for RWHAP Part D recipients. A CoP engages recipient teams in improvement learning sessions using subject matter experts along with application experts who help recipient teams select, test and implement changes on the front line of care. Through organizational self-assessments, didactic learning on specific care topics, goals setting and work plan development, each team can strategically benefit their organization. CoPs afford participants the opportunity to work in a group to solve a recognized challenge related to a CoP domain and support dialogue among participants and the consultant/subject matter experts. Recipient teams commit to working over a period of 12 months, alternating between Learning Sessions in which teams come together to learn about the chosen topic and to plan changes, and Action Periods in which the teams return to their respective organizations and test those changes in their clinic settings. The domains for the proposed CoPs are trauma informed care, pre-conception counseling and youth transitioning into adult HIV care services.

Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS-E2) (CMS-10545)

Key Information

Abstract

Abstract (2000 characters maximum) This request is for OMB PRA approval of a version update of the Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS). The updated version of the OASIS item set is titled OASIS –E2 OASIS is a core standard assessment data set that Home Health Agencies (HHAs) integrate into their own patient-specific, comprehensive assessment to identify each patient’s need for home care that meets the patient’s medical, nursing, rehabilitative, social, and discharge planning needs. Since 1999, the Medicare Conditions of Participation (CoPs) have mandated that HHAs use the OASIS data set when evaluating adult, non-maternity patients receiving skilled services. OASIS data are used for both home health quality measurement and payment adjustment. OASIS-E2 is scheduled for implementation on April 1, 2026, to comply with changes noted in the CY2025 HH Final Rule. The changes for OASIS-E2 include the removal of the A1250 Transportation item which will be replaced by the revised A1255 Transportation item align with an item collected in other CMS programs. Subregulatory changes include CMS adding the B1000 Hearing, B0200 Vision, and A1110 Language items to the resumption of care (ROC) timepoint.A0810 Sex will replace the M0069 Gender item. Lastly, CMS will remove the O0350 Patient's COVID-19 vaccination is up to date item.

Required Elements for Submission of the Unified or Combined State Plan and Plan Modifications under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act

Key Information

Abstract

This consolidated information collection implements sections 102 and 103 of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) (P.L. 113-128), which requires each State to submit a Unified State Plan or, in the alternative, a Combined State Plan. The Unified or Combined State Plan requirements improve service integration and ensure that the workforce system is industry-relevant by responding to the economic needs of the State and matching employers with skilled workers. To that end, the Unified or Combined State Plan would describe how the State will develop and implement a unified, integrated service delivery system rather than discuss the State's approach to operating each core program individually.

Formative Data Collections for ACF Program Support

Key Information

Abstract

The Formative Data Collections for Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Program Support generic was created to allow ACF program offices to learn more about program-related services, including processes and needs of funded programs or grantees, those served by ACF programs, or others experienced with or interested in ACF programs. The goal is to improve ACF decision-making, program support, and support for or relationships with those with interest in ACF programs. The generic was approved as a new overarching generic in July 2019. In December 2020, ACF submitted a change request to increase burden estimates due to a higher than estimated demand to submit generic information collection requests. The higher demand was due in part to this being a new generic and ACF not having specific historical information to base estimates on, but also due to the unforeseen and unprecedented situation created by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Formative Data Collections for ACF Program Support generic has proved very useful for program offices to collect formative information about what programs and grantees are doing in response to the pandemic and to identify needs so that appropriate support can be provided.

OPTN Ventilated Patient Forms

Key Information

Abstract

Section 372 of the Public Health Service Act requires that the Secretary of HHS, by awards, provide for the establishment and operation of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN), which, under oversight of the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), operates the U.S. organ procurement and transplantation system. The Secretary/HRSA may direct the collection of data in accordance with the regulatory authority in 42 CFR 121.11 of the OPTN Final Rule. HRSA, in alignment with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, submits data elements for collection to OMB for official federal approval. HRSA is submitting this new data collection, separate from OMB No. 0915-0157, since it includes new forms developed in response to an HHS Secretarial Data Directive that are not in use by OPTN. HRSA believes that separating these data collections will minimize confusion, increase clarity among OPTN members and stakeholders, and enable more direct feedback on the new forms. Both data collections include time-sensitive, life-critical data on transplant candidates and potential organ donor patients, the organ matching process, histocompatibility results, organ labeling and packaging, as well as pre- and post-transplantation data on recipients and donors. The OPTN collects these specific data elements from transplant centers.

ACF’s Generic Clearance for Reviewer Recruitment Forms

Key Information

Abstract

This request by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is to extend approval of the generic clearance for Reviewer Recruitment Forms with no changes (note that burden estimates have been updated to reflect ongoing collections and estimated future burden, but the purpose and use of this generic have not changed). ACF may recruit reviewers for a variety of different activities and each program office within ACF has a slightly different needs for information about reviewer applicants for different activities. This overarching generic clearance allows ACF to request slightly different information from potential reviewers, yet the individual forms serve the same general function. The abbreviated clearance process of the generic clearance allows program offices to gather a suitable pool of candidates within the varied time periods available for reviewer recruitment. The forms submitted under this umbrella generic are and will be voluntary, low-burden and uncontroversial. Information will be collected electronically unless specified otherwise in an individual generic information collection (GenIC) request. These updates are in response to recent Presidential Actions related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), such as those covered under the EO Initial Recissions of Harmful Executive Orders and Actions.

Supportive Housing & Individual Placement and Support (SHIPS) Study

Key Information

Abstract

The SHIPS study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) designed to determine whether participation in Individual Placement and Support (IPS) improves the employment, income, health, and self-sufficiency of people who are recently homeless and living in supportive housing. The SHIPS study will mark the first study testing the effectiveness of implementing IPS in a supportive housing program. SSA hypothesizes that combining the two most successful evidence-based practices that separately address homelessness and supported employment will yield a single intervention that effectively addresses both. The intent of the SHIPS study is to measure the effectiveness of evidence-based IPS compared to the services provided by local WorkSource Centers broadly available to jobseekers in the Los Angeles area, The housing case managers will refer PATH clients interested in finding employment and will randomly assign participants to one of two groups: 1. IPS: The Individual Placement and Support (IPS) service team will offer a range of structured services customized to participants’ personal needs, preferences, and challenges related to disabilities and/or mental health conditions. IPS was specifically designed as a supported employment model for individuals with serious mental illness and includes standardized training and fidelity requirements. Components of IPS that differ from those offered by WorkSource Services include integrated treatment that incorporates vocational and mental health services; benefits planning; and focus on rapid job search without extensive training. 2. WorkSource Centers: Under PATH’s current housing model, housing case managers refer PATH clients who express interest in finding employment to local American Job Centers, known as WorkSource Centers in Los Angeles. The WorkSource Centers are operated by the City of Los Angeles Economic and Workforce Development Department, and follow an employment services model that varies by WorkSource Center, is not evidence-based or subject to fidelity monitoring and is not necessarily responsive to the individual needs of jobseekers with disabilities.

OFCCP is requesting approval to revise questions on the Complaint of Employment Discrimination Involving a Federal Contractor or Subcontractor form (CC-4) and Pre-Complaint Inquiry for Employment Discrimination Involving a Federal Contractor or Subcontractor form (CC-390) to align with E.O. 14173.

Key Information

Abstract

The CWBYCTP’s Office of Patient Advocacy (OPA) is operated by the National Marrow Donor Program® (NMDP). Through the OPA, NMDP provides navigation services, education resources, and support to people in need of an allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT). As the contractor for the OPA, NMDP is required to conduct surveys to evaluate patient satisfaction with the services provided. As such, NMDP will elicit feedback from all HCT patients, caregivers, and family members who had contact with the NMDP/Be The Match® Patient Support Center (PSC) for service and support (advocacy). Survey results will be used to inform program development and resource allocation decisions.
