The CMS-43 form is used to establish entitlement to Hospital Insurance (Part A) and Supplementary Medical Insurance (Part B) by individuals with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).
US Code:
42 USC 426-1
Name of Law: Special Provisions Relating to Coverage Under Medicare Program for End Stage Renal Disease
We propose to adjust our respondent burden (from 60,000 respondents to 25,000 respondents) based on improved methods of estimating the number of respondents. The Medicare Beneficiary Database (MBD) provides more accurate data than was previously used in 2013. The data for the 12 month period of January-December 2016 was used to determine the annual number of responses. This information was used to determine that there was a significant decrease in responses compared to 2013. In this regard, our time estimate has decreased by -14,560 hours. We now estimate an annual burden of 10,400 hours.
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;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
