RWHAP SPNS Linkages Study: Data End-User Survey

Public Burden Statement: This data collection will provide HRSA HAB with a better understanding of the RWHAP SPNS Enhancing Linkage of STI and HIV Surveillance Data Technical Assistance program. Information gathered will provide HRSA with an understanding of the extent and impact of the TA provided, barriers and facilitators RWHAP jurisdictions face, and opportunities for improvement and lessons learned. 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 OMB control number for this information collection is 0906-XXXX and it is valid until XX/XX/202X. This information collection is voluntary. Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 10 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to HRSA Reports Clearance Officer, 5600 Fishers Lane, Room 14N136B, Rockville, Maryland, 20857 or [email protected].
