The Insurance Match program is a
cooperative effort between states, insurers, and the federal Office
of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) to help state child support
agencies collect past-due child support from noncustodial parents.
Using an efficient, secure, and cost-effective automated matching
process, OCSE works with participating insurers to help states
collect past-due support for families by comparing noncustodial
parents active on the OCSE Debtor File to individuals eligible to
receive a payment from an insurance claim, settlement, award, or
payment (hereinafter, “claim”). State agency and insurer
participation in the Insurance Match program is voluntary; however,
there are 12 states that have specific mandates for insurers to
report claims. The Insurance Match program assists with meeting
these state mandates. This request is for a revision of a currently
approved information collection. Changes since the previous
approval pertain to an increase in the burden due to an increase in
the number of participating insurers. The information collection
instruments have not changed.

The burden hour increased from
the previous approval, from 2,102 hours to 2,817.21 hours. This
adjustment is the result of an increase in the number of new
Insurance Match program respondents from 111 to 145. The estimated
average amount of time for each response is unchanged.
