Request for Approval under the “Generic Clearance for the Collection of Routine Customer Feedback” (CMS-10748, OMB Control Number: 0938-1185)

Shape1 TITLE OF INFORMATION COLLECTION:


Account Manager Satisfaction Survey


PURPOSE:


The President’s Management Agenda (PMA) lays out a long-term vision for modernizing the

Federal Government in key areas that will improve the ability of agencies to deliver mission

outcomes, provide excellent service, and effectively steward taxpayer dollars

on behalf of the American people. More specifically, CAP Goal #4, Improved Customer Experience with Federal Services, charges federal agencies will provide a modern, streamlined, and responsive customer experience across Government, comparable to leading private-sector organizations.


CMS/OPOLE’s Account Managers are responsible providing day-to-day technical assistance and program support to Medicare Advantage Organizations, PACE Organizations, Medicare-

Medicaid Plans, Section 1833 Cost Contractors and Section 1876 Cost Contractors, and Part D Sponsors. There are up to 300 such parent organizations, responsible for providing health insurance and prescription drug coverage for approximately 50 million Medicare beneficiaries (and growing). Thus, providing informed and quality responses to plan questions timely, and addressing plan administration/compliance issues, are essential Account Manager responsibilities with substantive impact on Medicare beneficiaries’ health and well-being. Measuring Account Manager satisfaction from the perspective of these organizations (CMS’s customer), will provide feedback on how well OPOLE is performing and could identify opportunities for improvement. It is anticipated that organizations will appreciate the opportunity to provide Account Manager feedback and aid CMS with understanding how we can better meet their needs in the future.


The survey is to be administered anonymously via the internet, with one survey per parent organization. PACE organizations will receive a slightly different survey. Both survey instrument questions are included in this package. CMS will not publish this information or share the results, even in the aggregate, with these organizations.
