(CMS-10151) Data Collection for Medicare Beneficiaries Receiving Implantable Cardioverter-defibrillators for Primary Prevention of Sudden Cardiac Death
(CMS-10151) Data Collection
for Medicare Beneficiaries Receiving Implantable
Cardioverter-defibrillators for Primary Prevention of Sudden
Cardiac Death
Reinstatement with change of a previously approved collection
To encourage responsible and
appropriate use of ICDs, CMS issued a Decision Memo for Implantable
Defibrillators on January 27, 2005, indicating that ICDs will be
covered for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death if the
beneficiary is enrolled in either an FDA-approved category B IDE
clinical trial (42 DFR ?405.201), a trial under the CMS Clinical
Trial Policy (NCD Manual ?310.1) or a qualifying prospective data
collection system (either a practical clinical trial or prospective
systematic data collection, which is sometimes referred to as a
registry).
US Code:
42
USC 1395y Name of Law: Exclusions from Coverage and Medicare as
a Secondary Payer
There are changes to the
burden. The changes to burden are due to calculations based on
averages of the actual number of primary prevention ICD procedures
performed in 2012 and 2013 and changes to the estimated time it
takes to complete and transmit each form. The original numbers were
estimates that were not based on experience as these were new
processes at the time.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;

(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
