Both Hill-Burton
packages have been approved under the same OMB number in order to
ensure tandem review later this year. Approval is granted through
FY 1983 to collect data in order to permit the completion of a full
3-year cycle. However, OMB believes that significant opportunities
for burden reduction exist in Hill-Burton reporting and that the
requirements should be reviewed in the context of both the revision
to Hill-Burton regulations and the actual uses being made of data
collected by OCR and HRA.
