CDC requests a revision to the HIV Prevention Program Evaluation and Monitoring System (PEMS) for standardized HIV prevention program data from health departments and community-based organizations. The data are used to monitor the delivery of prevention services data to clients and report on required program performance indicators.
US Code:
42 USC 306
Name of Law: Public Health Service Act
Increases in burden are based on additional funding for HIV testing, studies that require collection of data at multiple times, and additional grantees reporting data. The increase in prevention activities, not an increase in reporting requirements, cause the increase in burden.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
