Furthermore, OMB believes analysis of access issues will be particular critical in the context of future implementation of Health Care Reform However, after thoughtful consideration of public comments and input from HCFA and SSA, OMB has determined that inclusion of race/ethnicity data on the UB-92 would not be the most effective means of ensuring adequate data collection, analysis, and dissemination. Accordingly, O approves for use the UB-92 as submitted until 6/94 under the condition that HCFA: 1) in consultation with SSA, the Office of Civil Rights, an ASPE immediately pursues planned initiatives as described under the headings "Current Joint HCFA and SSA Initiatives to Improve HCFA Race Data" and the "Medicaid Race Code Situation" in the enclosed HCFA/SSA Discussion Paper dated 12/3/93; 2) in consultation with the previously mentioned Offices, develops a long term strategy for enhancing the collection, analysis, and dissemination of race/ethnicity data and includes this strategy in the next submission for OMB review; and 3) n later than 3/94, provides OMB with a status report on progress in im- plementing immediate, short term initiatives and in developing the lon term data strategy.
