persons are invited to send comments
regarding the burden estimate or any
other aspect of this collection of
information, including the necessity and
utility of the proposed information
collection for the proper performance of
the agency’s functions, the accuracy of
the estimated burden, ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected, and the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology to
minimize the information collection
burden.

OMB desk officer by January 13, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. The term ‘‘collection of
information’’ is defined in 44 U.S.C.
3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) and
includes agency requests or
requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)) requires federal agencies
to publish a 30-day notice in the
Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension or
reinstatement of an existing collection
of information, before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, CMS is
publishing this notice that summarizes
the following proposed collection(s) of
information for public comment:
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Cost-sharing
Reduction Reconciliation Data
Template; Use: Under established
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) regulations, although
payments are not being advanced to
qualified health plan (QHP) issuers at
the present time, issuers are still
permitted to submit data that compares
the CSR-eligible enrollment for each
issuer with their actual cost sharing
reductions made by the issuer for
medical services for each eligible
enrollee in a benefit year. HHS will
compare this CSR-eligible enrollment
with the actual cost sharing reductions
provided by the issuers that participate
in the optional data submission window
to verify the issuer’s reporting of cost-
sharing reductions provided. This
revised collection does not add any data
elements, and continues to make
optional summary plan level reporting.
