Abstract: The Federal Office of Rural Health Policy (FORHP), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), conducts an annual data collection of user information for the Black Lung Program, which has been ongoing with OMB approval since 2004. The purpose of the Black Lung Clinics Program is to improve the health status of coal workers by providing services to minimize the effects of respiratory and pulmonary impairments of coal miners, including treatment required in the management of problems associated with black lung disease, which improves the miner’s quality of life and reduces economic costs associated with morbidity and mortality arising from pulmonary diseases. Collecting this data will provide HRSA information on how well each grantee is meeting the needs of active and retired miners in their communities.
