Approved
consistent with HRSA memos submitted to OMB 07/27/04 and 08/06/04.
HRSA will continue to work with CMS to determine if further
streamlining relating to information collected though this
clearance may be achieved. In light of numerous form amendments,
HRSA must review the corresponding instructions to ensure that they
accurately reflect the revised forms, and HRSA must provide OMB
with a statement to certify that current instructions are up to
date. Additionally, HRSA must forward to OMB copies of all forms
reflecting changes discussed in memos submitted to OMB including
questions relating to Academic Activity level, Biological or
Anti-Viral therapy, and Race and Ethnicity. HRSA will provide both
forms and a certification of instructions statement to OMB as soon
as possible but no later than 08/30/04.
