Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 214 / Tuesday, November 5, 2013 / Notices
Thus Title X service sites see a large
proportion of young and uninsured
individuals. Over the past years, OPA
has encouraged grantees to develop
enrollment programs to ensure that
clients who are currently uninsured
understand new health insurance
options that are available as a result of
the ACA. Some sites already assist
individuals with enrolling in Medicaid
and other public insurance programs.
With the availability of the health
insurance marketplace, many more
service delivery sites are assisting
clients enroll in health insurance
programs.
OPA does not have any data on how
many sites are assisting and enrolling
clients into health insurance programs.
Thus we seek to collect this data in
order to understand the impact of Title
X funded service sites on assisting and
enrolling clients into insurance
programs. We will utilize this
information to guide strategic planning
around how Title X service sites and
prepare for, and assist with, the full
implementation of the ACA. Through a
separate data collection process called
the Family Planning Annual Report
(FPAR) (OMB No. 0990–0221,
expiration January 31, 2016), OPA
collects information on the insurance

status of the clients served. With the
implementation of the ACA, many of
the traditional clients served by Title X
service sites will qualify for health
insurance. Due to the varying resources
available at the State level to conduct
outreach and enrollment, OPA has
authorized grantees to use funding to
conduct outreach and enrollment
activities. However, we are not currently
collecting data on how many sites are
conducting such activities, the impact of
those activities in enrolling clients into
health insurance programs, and the
need for additional resources to conduct
outreach and enrollment. By collecting
information on how many clients are
assisted and enrolled in health
insurance programs, OPA can; (1)
measure the impact of Title X service
sites in enrolling clients into insurance
programs; (2) design strategic initiatives
to encourage outreach and enrollment;
and (3) better understand the impact of
the Affordable Care Act on Title X
service delivery sites.
Likely Respondents: This annual
reporting requirement is for family
planning services delivery projects
authorized and funded by the Title X
Family Planning Program [‘‘Population
Research and Voluntary Family
Planning Programs’’ (Pub. L. 91–572)],

66361

which was enacted in 1970 as Title X of
the Public Health Service Act (Section
1001 of Title X of the Public Health
Service Act, 42 United States Code
[USC] 300).
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions, to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information, to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information, to search
data sources, to complete and review
the collection of information, and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information.
This data is currently being collected
by the Health Resources and Services
Administration (HRSA) and the burden
estimate is based on the supporting
statement from their OMB application.

Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
In the United States, chronic diseases
such as heart disease, obesity and
diabetes are among the leading causes of
death and disability. Although chronic
diseases are among the most common
and costly health problems, they are
also among the most preventable.
Adopting healthy behaviors—such as
eating nutritious foods, being physically
active and avoiding tobacco use—can
prevent the devastating effects and
reduce the rates of these diseases.
Employers are recognizing the role
they can play in creating healthy work
environments and providing employees
with opportunities to make healthy
lifestyle choices. To support these
efforts, the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) plans to develop
an online organizational assessment tool
called the CDC Worksite Health
Scorecard.
The CDC Worksite Health Scorecard
is authorized by the Public Health
Service Act and funded through the
Prevention and Public Health Fund of
the Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act (ACA). The CDC Worksite
Health Scorecard is a tool designed to
help employers assess whether they
have implemented evidence-based
health promotion interventions or
strategies in their worksites to prevent
heart disease, stroke, and related
conditions such as hypertension,
diabetes, and obesity. The assessment
contains 125 yes/no questions that
assess how evidence-based health
promotion strategies are implemented at
a worksite. These strategies include
health promoting counseling services,
environmental supports, policies, health
plan benefits, and other worksite

survey that will be available to any
public/private employer regardless of
size, industry sector, or geographic
location. The online system will require
the creation of a user account with
employer contact information so that
employer representatives can complete
the CDC Worksite Health Scorecard
instrument; receive an immediate
feedback report on existing program
gaps; and benchmark themselves against
other employers using the CDC Worksite
Health Scorecard. It is recommended
that the CDC Worksite Health Scorecard
be repeated on an annual basis.
CDC is requesting Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
approval by March 2014. The
information to be collected will allow
CDC to register employers and permit
access to the survey and other resources
such as the user manual, feedback
reports, and tools for employers. CDC
will also use the information to generate
benchmark reports for comparing the
number of workplace health strategies
an individual employer has
implemented to the number of strategies
implemented by other employers using
the CDC Worksite Health Scorecard, to
identify success drivers for building and
maintaining successful workplace
health programs, to raise awareness and
knowledge among employers about
science-based workplace health program
strategies, to develop additional tools
and resources for employers, and to
evaluate the impact of the CDC Worksite
Health Scorecard on the adoption of
workplace health programs, policies and
environmental supports.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. CDC estimates that 600 employers
will complete the CDC Worksite Health
Scorecard per year. Participation is
voluntary and there are no costs to
participants other than their time.

programs shown to be effective in
preventing heart disease, stroke, and
related health conditions. Employers
can use this tool to assess how a
comprehensive health promotion and
disease prevention program is offered to
their employees, to help identify
program gaps, and to prioritize across
the following health topics:
Organizational Supports; Tobacco
Control; Nutrition; Physical Activity;
Weight Management; Stress
Management; Depression; High Blood
Pressure; High Cholesterol; Diabetes;
Signs and Symptoms of Heart Attack
and Stroke; Emergency Response to
Heart Attack and Stroke; Lactation
Support; Community Resources;
Occupational Health and Safety; and
Vaccine-Preventable Diseases.
Employers, human resource
managers, health benefit managers,
health education staff, occupational
nurses, medical directors, wellness
directors, or others responsible for
worksite health promotion can use the
CDC Worksite Health Scorecard to
establish benchmarks for their
organizations and track improvements
over time. State health departments may
assist employers and business coalitions
in using the tool and help them find
ways to establish healthier workplaces.
State health departments also can use
the tool for monitoring worksite
practices, establishing best practice
benchmarks, and more effectively
directing resources to support
employers. Employers who complete
the CDC Worksite Health Scorecard will
be provided with workplace health
program planning and implementation
tools. Participating employers may also
receive technical assistance and
training.
The CDC Worksite Health Scorecard
is a voluntary, self-reported online

Proposed Project
List of Ingredients Added to Tobacco
in the Manufacture of Cigarette Products
(OMB No. 0920–0210, exp. 2/28/2014)—
Extension—Office on Smoking and
Health, National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Cigarette smoking is the leading
preventable cause of premature death
and disability in the United States. Each
year, more than 443,000 premature
deaths occur as the result of diseases
related to cigarette smoking. The
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), Office on Smoking
and Health (OSH) has the primary
responsibility for the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS)
smoking and health program. HHS’s
overall goal is to reduce death and
disability resulting from cigarette
smoking and other forms of tobacco use
through programs of information,
education and research.
The Comprehensive Smoking
Education Act of 1984 (CSEA, 15 U.S.C.
1336 or Pub. L. 98–474) requires each
person who manufactures, packages, or
imports cigarettes to provide the
Secretary of HHS with a list of
ingredients added to tobacco in the
manufacture of cigarettes. The
legislation also authorizes HHS to
undertake research, and to report to the
Congress (as deemed appropriate)
discussing the health effects of these
ingredients.
HHS has delegated responsibility for
implementing the CSEA’s ingredient
reporting requirements to CDC’s OSH.
OSH has collected ingredient reports on
cigarette products since 1986.

66363

Respondents are commercial cigarette
manufacturers, packagers, or importers,
or their designated representatives.
Respondents are not required to submit
specific forms; however, they are
required to submit a list of all
ingredients used in their products. CDC
requires the ingredient report to be
submitted by chemical name and
Chemical Abstract Service (CAS)
Registration Number, consistent with
accepted reporting practices for other
companies currently required to report
ingredients added to other consumer
products. Typically, respondents submit
a summary report to CDC with the
ingredient information for multiple
products, or a statement that there are
no changes to their previously
submitted ingredient report. The
estimated burden per response is 6.5
hours. The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 501.
Ingredient reports for new products
are due at the time of first importation.
Thereafter, ingredient reports are due
annually on March 31. Information is
submitted to OSH by mailing a written
report on the respondent’s letterhead,
which may be accompanied by a
compact disk (CD), three-inch floppy
disk, or thumb drive. Annual ingredient
reports should be mailed to: Office on
Smoking and Health, Attention: FCLAA
Program Manager, National Center for
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion, Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, 4770 Buford Highway,
NE., MS F–79 Atlanta, GA 30341–3717.
Electronic mail submissions are not
accepted. Upon receipt and verification
of the annual ingredient report, OSH
issues a Certificate of Compliance to the
respondent.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
approval is requested for three years.
