In addition, CMS is reminded that they must respond to any prior terms of clearance is every submission for OMB review. CMS-provided response to terms of clearance: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Center for Medicaid & State Operations (CMSO) envisions replacing the current cumbersome and time-consuming manual process for submitting, reviewing and approving State Plan Amendments (SPAs) with an automated electronic system, called eSPA. CMSO has convened the eSPA Work Group to ensure that the voices of all potential users are heard during eSPA development. This Work Group is currently examining the possibility of using electronic signatures for Medicaid and SCHIP state plan submissions. It is anticipated that the eSPA process will be finalized in January of 2009.
