Short Statement: Since the approval of the LCDS V5.3, the number of LTCHs submitting assessments has changed to 318. LTCHs are submitting approximately 102,590 planned and unplanned discharge assessments. As a result of these changes, we estimate an overall decrease in burden hours for LTCHs. Specifically, the burden hours will decrease by 512.95 hours [185,101 hours – 184,588.05]. We estimate there will be a decrease in average annual cost to all LTCHs for reporting quality data of $38,455.86(-512.95 hours in burden for all LTCHs x $74.97 composite wage). We estimate there will be a decrease in average annual cost to each LTCH for reporting quality data of $120.93 ($38,455.86/ 318 LTCHs).

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $3,384,268
