Short Statement:
Our November 15, 2019 final rule (RIN 0938-AT72, CMS-1715-F) amended 42 CFR part 489 to include OTPs as a provider as required by section 1866(e)(3) of the Act. We are proposing that the requirements under part 489, which include limitation of charges to beneficiaries, would apply to OTPs. Specifically, we are proposing to add OTPs to the list of providers in ยง 489.2 and that the provider agreements apply to OTPs only to furnish OUD treatment services. In that regard OTPs would be required to complete Provider Agreement CMS-1561 or CMS-1561A in order to enroll in Medicare. The burden for reporting and completing the Provider Agreement is based on SAMHSA statistics. We generally estimate that there are about 1,700 already certified and accredited OTPs eligible for Medicare enrollment initially; and approximately 200 OTPs would become certified by SAMHSA in the next 3 years (or roughly 67 per year). Annually, we estimate an average of 635 additional respondents ([1,767 OPTs for year 1 + 67 OTPs for year 2 + 67 OTPs for year 3)/3 years]).
