This collection of forms was part of a previously approved collection under OMB Control Number 2900-0160. However, it has been determined that these six forms will be separated from the other three forms in 2900-0160, and this ICR seeks renewal under a new OMB Control Number.
Title 38, CFR Part 51 State Veterans Homes (SVH) regulations published in the Federal Register as final rule on November 28, 2018 (RIN 2900-A088) require the VA to ensure per diem payments are limited to facilities providing high quality care. These six forms are presented to and completed by SVH management and then assessed and utilized by VA SVH Representatives designated by the Medical Center Director of VA of jurisdiction during the annual VA survey process at each SVH across the U.S. as a regulatory action. This collection of forms falls under the auspices of Geriatrics and Extended Care in VA Central Office (10NC4). As per VHA Directive 1145.01, this collection of forms is part of the annual VA survey process. The legal requirements that necessitate this collection of information are found specifically at 38 CFR Parts 51.31, 51.43, and 51.210 for all three levels of care; nursing home, domiciliary, and adult day health care.
The information required at time of the VA survey includes the application and justification for medications for a basic rate Veteran; records and reports which SVH management must maintain regarding activities of residents or participants; information relating to whether the SVH meets standards concerning residentsâ rights and responsibilities prior to admission or enrollment, during admission or enrollment, and upon discharge; the records and reports which SVH management and SVH health care professionals must maintain regarding residents or participants and employees; various types of documents pertaining to the management of the SVH; pharmaceutical records; and staffing documentation.

Name of Law: Per Diem for Nursing Home, Domiciliary, or Adult Day Health Care of Veterans in State Homes
This collection of forms was part of a previously approved collection under OMB Control Number 2900-0160. However, it has been determined that these six forms will be separated from the other three forms in 2900-0160, and this ICR seeks renewal under a new OMB Control Number. The burden increases and decreases are due to the reduction from 9 forms to 6 forms, as well as some modifications to anticipated responses based upon historically recorded actual responses.
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;
