A question regarding designated
intestine transplant programs was inadvertently omitted from the
OPTN membership application forms approved by the Office of
Management and Budget during July 2017. Specifically, the omitted
question is used to collect information to demonstrate compliance
with the intestine transplant program “primary transplant
physician” training and experience requirements in the OPTN
bylaws.

The estimated burden for the
revised collection increased from 6,006 to 7,016. This increase is
due to the additions and revisions to selected forms and the
addition of new forms around VCA transplants. However, each
individual form will be shorter and easier to complete, leading to
a decrease in burden in some instruments. ROCIS doesn't allow for 0
respondents or burden, so the respondents had to be increased to 1
in order to be entered. This caused the total respondents to
increase by 1 and the total burden by 4 hours. Form C "OPO New
Applications" has 0 for respondents as there are no new
respondents, thus no form to respond to.
