Section 3005 of the Affordable Care
Act authorizes the establishment of a quality reporting program for
PPS-exempt cancer hospitals (PCHs). This is an update to the
previously approved PCHQR Program PRA submission. We are proposing
to remove one web-based, structural quality measure and are
requesting a revision of the currently approved collection to
reduce the estimated burden.
We are revising the total
number of measures for which burden is accounted for under this PRA
from 7 to 1. As a result, the total estimated burden will decrease
from 75,779 hours at a cost of $2,940,225 (75,779 x $38.80) to 3
hours at a cost of $116. The updated labor wage from $38.80/hour to
$41.00/hour results in a total increase of $7 for all 11 PCHs to a
total burden estimate of $123.
