INFORMATION COLLECTION REQUIREMENTS IN 42 CFR, PART 405, CONDITIONS OF PARTICIPATION FOR REHABILITIATION AGENCIES AND CONDITIONS FOR COVERAGE FOR PHYSICAL THERAPISTS. ...
Approved for use through 10/93 under the condition that the next submission for OMB review presents a revised burden estimate incorporating burden imposed by Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) requirements. Pursuant to OMB's request, HHS promulgated final rules reducing burdensome contractual requirements. However, HHS continued to impose patient record requirements for non Medicare patients, contrary to public comment. I addition, HHS estimates that 194 programs participate in CARF, while 1, 337 clinics are affected by these Medicare requirements. It is unclear how "programs" relate to "clinics", but these statistics seem to indicate that voluntary compliance may be low. For these reasons, OMB believes that HHS must take responsibility for this burden and monitor it on an ongoing basis.
