The purpose of this collection is to retrieve information necessary to conduct a compliance review as described in CMS-0014-N (68 FR 60694). These forms will be submitted to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), Program Management National Standards Group, from entities covered by HIPAA Administrative Simplification regulations. It is expected that covered entities under HIPAA (health plans, health care clearinghouses, and health care providers who electronically transmit any health information in connection with transaction for which HHS has adopted standards) will complete these forms during a CMS scheduled compliance review. CMS enforcement staff would use the information provided by covered entities to review HIPAA Administrative Simplification compliance in regards to adopted transaction standards, code sets, unique identifiers and operating rules.
Burden has increased due to the growth of reviews that are conducted annually. CMS has expanded the program to up to 100 entities annually. CMS has also made the following updates to communications sent to covered entities since the last PRA request; however, there are no changes to data/information collection requests:
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.
