Miscellaneous Actions
Short Statement:
The changes in burden proposed in this PRA are due to a decrease in NHSN data validation study reporting requirements from 40 records per year to 20 records per year. The burden also changes because the formula is now calculated using the median hourly wage rate, as opposed to the mean hourly wage rate. We made this change to be consistent with other CMS quality reporting and payment programs, which use the median wage rate in their estimates. The annual burden associated with the PY 2023 study is 1,500 hours at a cost of $61,500. This is a decrease of 1,500 hours and $65,460 from the currently approved burden estimate.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
