Section 6002 of the Deficit Reduction
Act (DRA) of 2005 added provisions under section 1927 of the Social
Security Act to require physicians in their offices and hospital
outpatient settings or other entities (e.g., non-profit facilities)
to collect and submit the drug National Drug Code (NDC) numbers on
Medicaid claims to their State in order for Federal Financial
Participation to be available for these drugs. We estimate that
there are 20,000 physicians in their offices, hospital outpatient
settings or other entities (e.g., non-profit facilities)
concentrating in the specialties of oncology, rheumatology and
urology will be required by their State Medicaid Programs to
collect and submit Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPC)
J drug code data match with NDC numbers. CMS released a letter to
State Medicaid Directors on July 11, 2006 to explain the
requirements of the State collection and submission of the drug NDC
numbers on Medicaid claims. This collection is also associated with
CMS-2238-FC Medicaid Program: Prescription Drugs published under
Volume 72, Number 136, Tuesday, July 17, 2007, Rules and
Regulations (RIN 0938-AO20). The requirements for this collection
are codified under 42 Code of Federal Regulations section 447.520
Federal Financial Participation: Conditions relating to physician
administered drugs.
In this 2021 iteration we are
not proposing changes to any of our requirements. As indicated in
Supporting Statement section 12, there are no reporting
instruments. We have, however, revised the title of this collection
of information request from, “Physicians and Hospital Outpatient
Departments Collecting and Submitting Drug Identifying Information
to State Medicaid Programs” to “Identifying Medicaid Payment for
Physician Administered Drugs.” The change has no impact on the
substance of this collection of information request. As indicated
in Supporting Statement section 15, we are also adjusting our total
response, total time, and total cost estimates based on FFY 2020
claims data.
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.
