Abstract:
In the final rule, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act; HHS Notice of Benefit and Payment Parameters for 2017 (CMS-9937-F), we finalized 45 CFR 156.1256, which requires QHP issuers, in the case of a material plan or benefit display error included in 45 CFR 155.420(d)(12), to notify their enrollees of the error and the enrollees’ eligibility for a special enrollment period within 30 calendar days after the issuer is informed by an Federally- facilitated Exchange (FFE) that the error is corrected, if directed to do so by the FFE. This requirement provides notification to QHP enrollees of errors that may have impacted their QHP selection and enrollment and any associated monthly or annual costs, as well as the availability of a special enrollment period under §155.420(d)(12) for the enrollee to select a different QHP, if desired. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is renewing this information collection request (ICR) in connection with these standards. The burden estimate for this ICR included in this package reflects the time and effort for QHP issuers to provide notifications to enrollees.

Short Statement:
Note The Agency inadvertently submitted an incorrect total number of respondents in the previous submission to OMB. The number of respondents should have been 475 issuers; however, the Agency submitted a total of 7,600 respondents. The number of burden hours have been reduced from 3,800 hours to 1,700 hours annually (a total reduction of 2,100 burden hours). These changes are due to the lower number of actual enrollees (8.4 million) compared to the higher number of anticipated enrollees in 2016(19 million) in the FFEs and SBE-FPs. The number of respondents (issuers) have increased from 475 to 505, a total increase of 30.
