AGENCY:
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), Health and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION:
Notice; reopening of comment period.
SUMMARY:
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is reopening the comment period for a limited time for a collection of information notice that published in the Federal Register on April 22, 2026. The notice is entitled “Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) Generic Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Comment Request”. CMS is taking this action to address an inadvertent issue with posting one of the collection's revised templates (S89—Citizenship and Noncitizen Eligibility) under Medicaid State Plan Eligibility. While the April 22 notice provided the public with 14-days to comment, we are reopening the comment period for 12 days—the duration of the inaccurate posting.
DATES:
The comment period for the notice that published on April 22, 2026 (91 FR 21505) is reopened. Comments must be received by May 26, 2026.
ADDRESSES:
