Abstract:
This is intended to provide CMS the ability to receive notice when an AO is contemplating undergoing or negotiating a change of ownership (CHOW), and the ability to review the AO’s capability to perform its tasks after a change in ownership has occurred, in order to insure the ongoing effectiveness of the approved accreditation program(s) and to minimize risk to patient safety.

Short Statement:
In the proposed rule information collection request (ICR), we requested approval for 11 burden hours and burden costs in the amount of $1,154.03. In this final rule ICR, we are requesting first time approval for 144 burden hours and $12,955.94 in burden costs associated with the regulations being finalized at 42 CFR § 488.5(f). The increase in the burden costs between the previous and current ICR is due, in part, to increases in the time and cost burdens estimates we made in response to public comments received on the proposed rule. The increase in the cost burden is also attributable in part to the use of updated wage rates from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for 2021 in the current ICR. In the proposed rule we had used the wage rates for 2018.
