Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection;

In compliance with the requirement of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Health Care Financing
Administration (HCFA), Department of Health and Human Services, is
publishing the following summary of proposed collections for public
comment. Interested persons are invited to send comments regarding the
burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information,
including any of the following subjects: (1) the necessity and utility
of the proposed information collection for the proper performance of
the agency's functions; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden; (3)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (4) the use of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology to minimize the information
collection burden.
Type of Information Collection Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection;
Title of Information Collection: Quarterly Medicaid Statement of
Expenditures for the Medical Assistance Program.
Form Nos.: HCFA-64, 64.21, 64.21U, 64.21P, 64.21UP, 64EC, 64.21E,
64.9, 64.10, 64.10P, 64.11a, 64.9d;
Use: These new forms are revisions of the currently approved
collection report Form HCFA-64. These forms will be used by State
Medicaid agencies to report their actual CHIP-related Medicaid
expenditures and the numbers of CHIP-related children, and other
children being served in the Medicaid program, to the Health Care
Financing Administration (HCFA). The forms will be used by the HCFA to
ensure that the appropriate level of Federal payments for the State's
CHIP-related Medicaid program expenditures are made in accordance with
the CHIP and related Medicaid provisions of the BBA of 1997, and to
track, monitor, and evaluate the numbers of CHIP-related children and
other individuals being served by the Medicaid program.
Note: at this time Forms HCFA-64.21E and HCFA-64EC of this package
are for States to report the numbers of CHIP-related children and other
[[Page 39584]]
children, by service delivery system, that are served in States'
Medicaid programs based on age categories. However, we are continuing
to work with the States to develop an appropriate format for States to
report the numbers of children, by service delivery system, that are
served in the States' Medicaid programs based on Federal poverty income
level categories and under the age categories previously requested.
When this format is finalized it will be incorporated into Forms HCFA-
21E and HCFA-64EC.

forms, see below:
