| E6-15130 | Privacy Act of 1974; Report of a New System of Records | Notice | In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, we are proposing to establish a new system titled, "Chronic Condition Data Repository (CCDR), System No. 09-70-0573." The program is mandated by Section 723 of the Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) (Public Law (Pub. L.) 108-173), which was enacted into law on December 8, 2003, and amended Title XVIII of the Social Security Act (the Act). The CCDR program seeks to establish a data repository to study chronically ill Medicare beneficiaries. This data repository will integrate existing data to support studies for improving the quality of care and studies for reducing the cost of care for chronically ill Medicare beneficiaries. The statute is designed to reduce program spending, make current Medicare program data more readily available to researchers to study chronic illness in the Medicare population, improve process time for research data request, focus on analytic prospective verses operational, and utilize data extraction tools to organize the data. The data collected and maintained in this system are retrieved from the following databases: Medicare Drug Data Processing System, System No. 09-70-0553 (70 Federal Register (FR) 58436 (October 6, 2005)); Medicare Beneficiary Database, System No. 09-70-0536 (66 FR 63392 (December 6, 2001)); Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug System, System No. 09-70-4001 (70 FR 60530 (October 18, 2005)); Medicaid Statistical Information System, System No. 09-70-6001 (67 FR 48906 (July 26, 2002)); Retiree Drug Subsidy Program, System No. 09-70-0550 (70 FR 41035 (July 15, 2005)); Common Working File, System No. 09-70- 0526 (67 FR 3210 (January 23, 2002)); National Claims History, System No. 09-70-0005 (67 FR 57015 (September 6, 2002)); Enrollment Database, System No. 09-70-0502 (67 FR 3203 (January 23, 2002)); Carrier Medicare Claims Record, System No. 09-70-0501 (67 FR 54428 (August 22, 2002)); Intermediary Medicare Claims Record, System No. 09-70-0503 (67 FR 65982 (October 29, 2002)); Unique Physician/Provider Identification Number, System No. 09-70-0525 (69 FR 75316 (December 16, 2004)); Medicare Supplier Identification File, System No. 09-70-0530 (67 FR 48184 (July 23, 2002)), A Current Beneficiary Survey, System No. 09-70-6002 (66 FR 15496 (March 19, 2001)); National Plan & Provider Enumerator System, System No. 09-70-0008, (63 FR 40297 (July 28, 1998)); Long Term Care MDS, System No. 09-70-1517 (67 FR 6714 (February 13, 2002)); HHA Outcome and Assessment Information Set, System No. 09-70-9002 (66 FR 66903 (December 27, 2001)); and Integrated Data Repository, System No. 09-70-0571 (To be published). The purpose of this system is to collect and maintain a person- level view of identifiable data to establish a data repository to study chronically ill Medicare beneficiaries. This system will utilize data extraction tools to support accessing data by chronic conditions and process complex customized research data requests related to chronic illnesses. Information retrieved from this system may be disclosed to: (1) Support regulatory, reimbursement, and policy functions performed within the agency or by a contractor, grantee, consultant or other legal agent; (2) assist another Federal or state agency with information to contribute to the accuracy of CMS's proper payment of Medicare benefits, enable such agency to administer a Federal health benefits program, or to enable such agency to fulfill a requirement of Federal statute or regulation that implements a health benefits program funded in whole or in part with Federal funds; (3) support an individual or organization for a research project or in support of an evaluation project related to the prevention of disease or disability, the restoration or maintenance of health, or payment related projects; (4) support Quality Improvement Organizations (QIO); (5) support litigation involving the agency; and (6) combat fraud, waste, and abuse in certain Federally-funded health benefits programs. We have provided background information about the new system in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section below. Although the Privacy Act requires only that CMS provide an opportunity for interested persons to comment on the proposed routine uses, CMS invites comments on all portions of this notice.
