Short Statement: 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.
