There are no program changes. However, burden estimates have been adjusted. Specifically, the number of facilities meeting the PRTF requirements at 42 CFR 440.160 has increased slightly since 2011 (from 376 to 390). This increase is reflected in the adjusted burden hours: 415,668 in 2012 to 449,609 in 2015. Also, the costs have been adjusted to account for the most recent BLS wage estimates.
