OMB No.: 0970-0222. Description: The information collected by State IV-D Child Support Enforcement agencies is used to complete the National Medical Support Notice NMSN), which is sent to employers of employee/obligors and used as a means of enforcing the healthcare coverage provision in a child support order. Primarily, the information the State Child Support enforcement agencies use to complete the NMSN is information regarding appropriate persons, which is necessary for the enrollment of the child in employment-related health care coverage, such as the employee/ obligors name, address, and Social Security Number; the employer's name and address; the name and address of the alternate recipient (child); and the custodial parent's name and address. The employer forwards the second part of the NMSN to the group health plan administrator, which contains the same individual identifying information. The plan administrator requires this information to determine whether to enroll the alternate recipient in the group health plan. If necessary, the employer also initiates withholding from the employee's wages for the purpose of paying premiums to the group health plan for enrollment of the child. Respondents: State and Territory agencies administering the child Support Enforcement program.
