The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is seeking public input on their plan to collect information from the public, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This includes proposed new collections, extensions, or updates to existing collections. The public has until February 28, 2025, to submit comments. This process aims to ensure the information collected is necessary and useful, and help improve the quality and effectiveness of the information gathering methods used by the CMS.
Simple Explanation
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) want to hear what people think about their plan to ask questions and gather information from the public to help make better health rules and services. They are giving everyone until the end of February to say what they think, but they haven't told us exactly how much work answering their questions might be, so it's a bit like guessing what will be in a big homework assignment.
