Agency Seeks Comments on Paperwork About Paperwork Reduction Act

## Summary

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is asking for public feedback on a new process to help settle disputes in the 340B Drug Pricing Program, which helps certain health providers get medicines at lower prices. If you’re involved with this program, now’s the time to share your thoughts before February 14, 2025. This step aims to make resolving pricing disagreements smoother and fairer, with no immediate cost changes but better clarity ahead.

## Abstract

In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, HRSA submitted an Information Collection Request (ICR) to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. Comments submitted during the first public review of this ICR will be provided to OMB. OMB will accept further comments from the public during the review and approval period. OMB may act on HRSA's ICR only after the 30-day comment period for this notice has closed.

- Only ADR Initiation Covered by PRA: benefit, low.
