The THCGME program statute provides
that eligible Teaching Health Centers receive payments for both
direct and indirect costs associated with training residents in
community-based ambulatory patient care centers. THCGME payments
are prospective payments and the statute provides for a
reconciliation process, through which overpayments may be recouped.
This data collection tool will gather information relating to
THCGME-supported resident FTEs in order to reconcile payments. The
likely responders are existing THCGME awardees.
The number of respondents has
increased but the burden hours and number of responses has remained
the same, hence submitting as an extension.
