SUMMARY:
CMS proposes to delete 10 systems of records from its inventory subject to the Privacy Act of 1974 (Title 5 United States Code § 552a).

To ensure that all parties have adequate time in which to comment, the deletions will become effective 30 days from the publication of the notice, or 40 days from the date it was submitted to OMB and Congress, whichever is later, unless CMS receives comments that require alterations to this notice.
