Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 197 / Wednesday, October 13, 2010 / Notices
approval from OMB to conduct
customer surveys over the next three
years.
As part of a comprehensive program,
the National Center for Health Statistics
(NCHS) plans to continue to assess its
customers’ satisfaction with the content,
quality and relevance of the information
it produces. NCHS will conduct
voluntary customer surveys to assess
strengths in agency products and
services and to evaluate how well it
addresses the emerging needs of its data
users. Results of these surveys will be
used in future planning initiatives.
The data will be collected using a
combination of methodologies
appropriate to each survey. These may

include: Evaluation forms, mail surveys,
focus groups, automated and electronic
technology (e.g., e-mail, Web-based
surveys), and telephone surveys.
Systematic surveys of several groups
will be folded into the program. Among
these are Federal customers and policy
makers, state and local officials who
rely on NCHS data, the broader
educational, research, and public health
community, and other data users.
Respondents may include data users
who register for and/or attend NCHS
sponsored conferences; persons who
access the NCHS Web site and the
detailed data available through it;
consultants; and others. Respondent
data items may include (in broad

categories) information regarding
respondent’s gender, age, occupation,
affiliation, location, etc., to be used to
characterize responses only. Other
questions will attempt to obtain
information that will characterize the
respondents’ familiarity with and use of
NCHS data, their assessment of data
content and usefulness, general
satisfaction with available services and
products, and suggestions for
improvement of surveys, services and
products.
The resulting information will be for
NCHS internal use. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time to
participate in the survey.

Background and Brief Description
CDC administers the National Breast
and Cervical Cancer Early Detection
Program (NBCCEDP), the largest
organized cancer screening program in
the United States. The NBCCEDP
provides critical breast and cervical
cancer screening services to uninsured
and underserved low-income women in
all 50 States, the District of Columbia,
five U.S. territories, and 12 American
Indian/Alaska Native organizations. The
program provides breast and cervical
cancer screening for eligible women
who participate in the program as well
as diagnostic procedures for women
who have abnormal findings. During the
past decade, the NBCCEDP has provided
over 9.2 million breast and cervical
cancer screening and diagnostic exams
to over 3.7 million low-income women.
Those who are diagnosed with cancer
through the program are eligible for
Medicaid coverage through the Breast
and Cervical Cancer Prevention and
Treatment Act passed by Congress in
2000.
In 2008, CDC received OMB approval
to collect one year of activity-based
economic cost data from NBCCEDP
grantees. In 2009, CDC received OMB
approval to collect two additional cycles
of cost data for fiscal year 2009 (FY09)

and fiscal year 2010 (FY10) (OMB No.
0920–0776, exp. 03/31/2011).
Respondents are the 68 programs
participating in the NBCCEDP.
Information is collected through a webbased Cost Assessment Tool (CAT) and
includes: Staff and consultant salaries,
screening costs, contracts and material
costs, provider payments, in-kind
contributions, administrative costs,
allocation of funds and staff time
devoted to specific program activities.
CDC requests OMB approval for a sixmonth extension of the current approval
period in order to complete the third
year of data collection. Based on our
experience with previous data
collection cycles, 20 grantees (30% of
the total 68 grantees) will not be able to
meet the current data collection
deadline of 3/31/2011. These programs
will complete their fiscal year (FY)
closeout process in April or May 2011.

average cost, perform cost-effectiveness
analysis and budget impact analysis of
the program, and allocate program
resources more effectively and
efficiently. The collection of economic
cost information complements the
measures of NBCCEDP effectiveness
collected as Minimum Data Elements
(0920–0571, exp. 11/30/2012).
In this Revision request, there are no
proposed changes to the data collection
instrument, data collection
methodology, or the estimated burden
per response. The only changes are a
decrease in the estimated number of
respondents (the number of late
responders) and a six-month extension
of the data collection period. All
information is collected electronically.
There are no costs to respondents other
than their time.

As a result, these programs will not be
prepared to submit data to CDC until
their FY is complete and records have
been reconciled. The requested sixmonth extension period will provide the
time they need to complete their
closeout process and conduct data
quality checks before submitting
information to CDC. The requested sixmonth extension will improve the
quality and completeness of information
used for planned data analysis, and
ensure CDC’s authority to receive late
submissions.
The activity-based cost data will be
used to evaluate grantees to ensure the
most appropriate use of limited program
resources in delivering program services
such as screening, diagnostic services,
case management and outreach. The
detailed cost data will allow CDC to
determine the costs of various program
components, identify factors that impact

Proposed Project: Healthcare Integrity
and Protection Data Bank for Final
Adverse Information on Health Care
Providers, Suppliers and Practitioners
(45 CFR 61)—OMB No. 0915–0239—
Revision
This is a request for revision and
extension of OMB approval of the
information collections contained in
regulations found in 45 CFR Part 61
governing the Healthcare Integrity and
Protection Data Bank (HIPDB) and the
forms to be used in reporting
information to and requesting
information from the HIPDB cleared
under OMB No. 0915–0239. An
additional form entitled, ‘‘Instructions
for Registering as an NPDB–HIPDB SelfQuerier,’’ has been included to meet
identity proofing and e-authentication
requirements stipulated in the E–
Authentication Guidance for Federal
Agencies (OMB M–04–04) and National
Institutes of Standards and
Technology’s (NIST) Draft Special
Publication 800–63–1, Electronic
Authentication Guidelines. The burden
estimate for self-queriers has been
adjusted from the original OMB
approval to reflect this new registration
process. The HIPDB is authorized by
section 1128E of the Social Security Act
(hereinafter referred to as section
1128E), as added by section 221(a) of
the Health Insurance Portability and

Accountability Act of 1996. Section
1128E directs the Secretary of Health
and Human Services (the Secretary) to
establish a national health care fraud
and abuse data collection program for
the reporting and disclosing of certain
final adverse actions (excluding
settlements in which no findings of
liability have been made) taken against
health care providers, suppliers, or
practitioners. It also directs the
Secretary to maintain a database of final
adverse actions taken against health care
providers, suppliers, or practitioners.
The regulations implementing section
1128E governing the operation of the
HIPDB are codified at 45 CFR Part 61.
The HIPDB became operational
November 22, 1999.
Approval is requested to continue the
following reporting data collection and
disclosure requirements and the ensuing
HIPDB forms along with the
instructions. The recordkeeping,
reporting, and disclosure requirements
are specified in the regulations to
implement the HIPDB. Numbers in the
table may not add up exactly due to
rounding. Please note the burden for
Administrative Forms has been
accounted for in the NPDB OMB
clearance renewal submission.
The annual estimate of burden is as
