Title: Access to Care Dialysis Pilot
Survey and Interview, VA Form 10–
10067.
Type of Review: New data collection.
Abstract: In May of 2012, the GAO
published a Report to Congressional
Requesters titled ‘‘VA DIALYSIS PILOT:
Increased Attention to Planning,
Implementation, and Performance
Measurement Needed to Help Achieve
Goals’’ (GAO–12–584, May 23, 2012).
The GAO report stated four goals of the
Dialysis Pilot, and the second goal,
increased access for veterans, is related
to this Information Collection (IC). A
principal goal of the Dialysis Pilot
program for the treatment of End Stage
Renal Disease (ESRD) is to improve
access to dialysis care for Veterans. This
Access to Care IC will include a
consideration of the access to care
dimensions (e.g., travel distance),
patient demographic, and socioeconomic characteristics associated
with Veterans’ use of the pilot VAoperated free-standing outpatient
dialysis clinics. This IC will provide an
independent assessment and analysis of
barriers and facilitators that Veterans
may experience while accessing the
pilot freestanding outpatient dialysis
clinics. At the end of this assessment, a
report will be developed that outlines
the main findings from this IC and
recommendations made that will inform
future employment of free-standing
outpatient dialysis clinics.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. The Federal Register
Notice with a 60-day comment period
soliciting comments on this collection
of information was published on
(Tuesday, August 20, 2013), Vol. 78, No.
161, on page 1.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 50 burden
hours.
Estimated Average Burden Per
Respondent: 75 minutes.
Frequency of Response: One time.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
