Short Statement:
There are minor revisions to the form that serve to shorten forms completion for the laboratory community and to enhance the data reporting of laboratory demographics and trends. Also, we added the collection of identifying the non-waived testing to be performed to section VIII of the CMS-116 form. We anticipate that the change to section VIII will take an average of 15 additional minutes to complete. The burden increase is also due to new laboratories participating in the CLIA program. The number of of laboratories using the form has increased from 34,200 to 51,000. The burden hours have increased from 25,650 to 51,000.
