Abstract:
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services collects quality performance measures in order to hold the Medicare managed care industry accountable for the care being delivered, to enable quality improvement, and to provide quality information to Medicare beneficiaries in order to promote an informed choice. It is critical to CMS' mission that we collect and disseminate information that will help beneficiaries choose among health plans, contribute to improved quality of care through identification of improvement opportunities, and assist CMS in carrying out its oversight and purchasing responsibilities.

Short Statement:
The changes for annual responses, annual hour burden and annual cost burden, reflect a correction to the numbers reported for the prior PRA submission approved in January 2004, as well as a real change in estimated burden. The 2004 submission combined requests for HEDIS and HOS. This current submission is only for HEDIS and is being filed as a new submission. In 2004 there were 169 entities that were required to respond with HEDIS data because they contracted to provide Medicare managed care services. With the passage and implementation of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act, several hundred entities received contracts to provide Medicare Part D services, bringing the number of respondents up to 705. The annual hour burden decreased substantially because the amount of time it takes to respond to the HEDIS survey has been greatly reduced and more accurate data on the time needed to complete a response was gathered. Thus, with 705 respondents taking 48 hours each to complete the survey, the annual hour burden is only 33,840.
