CMS-10261, OCN 0938-1054—
30-Day Comment Period
Please note that a detailed discussion of the associated burden changes is set out in section 15 of
Supporting Statement A.

The proposed changes in this ICR are as follows: Three reporting sections, Organization
Determinations/Reconsiderations, Special Needs Plans Care Management, and
Enrollments/Disenrollments, were updated to include additional data elements. For most
reporting sections with a data due date of February 28, the data due date was changed to the last
Monday in February, For Part C Grievances, Sponsor Oversight of Agents, and Employer Group
Plan Sponsors, the data due dates were changed to the first Monday in February. The due date
for Enrollment/Disenrollment was changed to the last Monday of August and February. This
“staggering” of data due dates is proposed so that the reporting load would be more manageable
in 2016 than it was in 2015 for CMS/HPMS. Also, having the data due date fall on February 28,
as it was in the past, introduced problems when February 28 was on a weekend or when it
occurred in a leap year. By listing the last Monday in February, this problem is eliminated. This
changing of due dates is not expected to impact burden in terms of hours or costs. The final set of
proposed changes is the addition of three reporting sections: Rewards and Incentives Program,
Mid-Year Network Changes, and Payments to Providers.
#6 Organization Determinations and Reconsiderations (see below for added data elements)
Data elements for this reporting section are contained in Table 1. Two new data elements would
be added: data element 6.10, Number of Requests for Organization Determinations—Dismissals,
and data element 6.20, Number of Requests for Reconsiderations—Dismissals. These additions
will fill user needs for data on dismissals and make this reporting section more consistent with a
similar reporting section in Part D, Coverage Determinations and Redeterminations.

#13: Special Needs Plans (SNPs) Care Management
SNPs will now also report the enrollee initial health risk assessment (HRA), and the annual
reassessment refusals that must be documented in their internal records. SNPs will also report
when the plans are unable to reach an enrollee to perform an initial HRA or an annual
reassessment. The SNP must document in its internal records that the enrollee did not respond to
at least 3 phone calls and a follow up letter, all soliciting participation in the HRA. The data
elements are listed below:

New enrollees are defined with respect
to the "90-day rule." The initial health
risk assessment is expected to be
completed within 90 days (before or
after) the effective date of enrollment
which must be continuous for that
period. The member could have initially
enrolled as early as 90 days prior to the
measurement year (enrolled as early as
10/3 of the previous year) and would
still be eligible in the current
measurement year as of 1/1 if no initial
HRA had been performed prior to 1/1.
For the purposes of this reporting,
members enrolled continuously for
more than 90 days in the same plan
without completing an initial HRA are
reported as being eligible for an initial
HRA (data element 13.1=1) but not
having received an initial HRA (data
element 13.3=0—refer to data element
13.3 below). After that 90-day period,
members are no longer reported as
eligible for an initial HRA in the same

#14: Enrollment/Disenrollment (see below for added data elements)
CMS provides guidance for MAOs and Part D sponsors’ processing of enrollment and
disenrollment requests. For Part C reporting, this involves only 1876 cost contracts with no Part
D. (For other organization types, reporting is under the appropriate section in the Part D
reporting requirements.) Under enrollment, only data elements A-I are reported under Part C. In
2014, there were only 10 contracts reporting enrollment/disenrollment for this reporting section
under Part C.
Four new data elements would be added under disenrollment—data elements D-G. These data
elements would report the number of involuntary disenrollments for failure to pay plan premium
in the specified time period, of these, the number of disenrolled individuals who submitted a
timely request for reinstatement for Good Cause, of these, the number of favorable Good Cause
determinations, and, of these, the number of individuals reinstated.
1. Enrollment:
A. The total number of enrollment requests (i.e., requests initiated by the beneficiary or
his/her authorized representative) received in the specified time period. Do not include
auto/facilitated or passive enrollments, rollover transactions or other enrollments
effectuated by CMS.
B. Of the total reported in A, the number of enrollment requests complete at the time of
initial receipt (i.e. required no additional information from applicant or his/her authorized

# 15 Reporting Section: Rewards and Incentives Program (new reporting section)
CMS has added a new regulation at 42 CFR §422.134 that permits MA organizations to offer
one or more Rewards and Incentives Program to currently enrolled members. Plans have a
choice in whether or not they offer a Rewards and Incentives Program(s), but if they do, they
must comply with the regulatory requirements set forth at §422.134. CMS needs to collect
Rewards and Incentives Program data in order to track which MA organizations are offering
such programs and how those programs are structured. This will inform future policy
development and allow CMS to determine whether programs being offered adhere to CMS
standards and have proper beneficiary protections in place. Based on 60-day comments, this
reporting section no longer requires 1876 cost plans to report.
The data elements remain as follows:
15.1 Do you have a Rewards and Incentives Program(s)? (“0” = “No”; “1” = “Yes”)
If yes, please list each individual Rewards and Incentives Program you offer and provide
information on the following:
15.2 What health related services and/or activities are included in the program? Text
15.3 What reward(s) may enrollees earn for participation? Text

#16 Reporting Section: Mid-Year Network Changes (new reporting section)
CMS is increasing its oversight and management of MAOs’ network changes in order to ensure
that changes made during the plan year do not result in inadequate access to care for enrolled
beneficiaries and that MAOs are provided timely and appropriate notification to providers and
enrollees. The data collected in this new measure will provide CMS with a better understanding
of how often Medicare Advantage Organizations (MAOs) undergo mid-year network changes
and how many enrollees are affected. Collecting these data will help to inform CMS in
determining how broadly to use the new Network Management Module (NMM) in the Health
Plan Management System (HPMS) to verify that plans’ networks meet CMS network adequacy
standards. In addition, responses from MAOs will enhance CMS’ ability to improve network
change protocol.

Legal Basis:
In accordance with 42 CFR § 422.112 (a)(1)(i), each MA organization under Part C Medicare
that offers a coordinated care plan is required to “maintain and monitor a network of appropriate
providers that is…sufficient to provide adequate access to covered services to meet the needs of
the population served.”

Based on 60-day comments, there are now 53 data elements instead of 13. The proposed data
elements, all reported at the contract level, are now:

17. Payments to Providers (new reporting section)
This is a new reporting section. This reporting section requires data entry into HPMS. We are adding
this new requirement based on internal review. In order to maintain consistency with HHS goals of
increasing the proportion of payment made based on quality and value, HHS developed four categories
of value based payment: fee-for-service with no link to quality; fee-for-service with a link to quality;
alternative payment models built on fee-for-service architecture; and population-based payment. CMS
is seeking to collect data from MA organizations about the proportion of their payments to providers
made based on these four categories in order to help us understand the extent and use of alternate
payment models in the MA industry. This does not include MAO payments for administrative
services or payments to hospitals, facilities, and labs. As we are interested in the direct contractual
arrangements between MAOs and providers, we are also interested in the contracts between MAOs and
3rd party administrators who contract with providers on behalf of MAOs.
CMS considers a fee-for-service with no link to quality arrangement to include all arrangements
where payments are based on volume of services and not linked to quality of efficiency.
CMS considers a fee-for-service with a link to quality to include all arrangements where at least a
portion of payments vary based on the quality or efficiency of health care delivery such as physician
value-based modifiers. Included in this category is pay for performance (P4P) payment structures.
CMS considers alternative payment models built on fee-for-service architecture to include all
arrangements where some payment is linked to the effective management of a population or an episode
of care. Payments are still triggered by delivery of services, but there are opportunities for shared
savings or 2-sided risk. Included in this category are bundled payments, Accountable Care
Organizations, Patient Centered Medical Homes, and other payments with upside and downside risk.
CMS considers population- based payment arrangements to include some payment is not directly
triggered by service delivery so volume is not linked to payment. Under these arrangements, clinicians
and organizations are paid and responsible for the care of a beneficiary for a long period (e.g., greater
than a year). Collecting these data will help to inform us as we determine how broadly MA
organizations are using alternative payment arrangements. Included in this category are partial
