Abstract: This information collection implements the Mammography Quality Standards Act through regulations that establish procedures whereby an entity can apply to become a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved accreditation body to accredit facilities to be eligible to perform screening or diagnostic mammography services. The regulations also establish requirements and standards for accreditation bodies to ensure that all mammography facilities under the jurisdiction of the United States are adequately and consistently evaluated for compliance with national quality standards for mammography.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: Our estimated burden for the information collection reflects an overall decrease of 4,224,764 hours and a corresponding decrease of 320,858 responses. We attribute this adjustment due to the number of certified mammography facilities. The estimated number of respondents in the tables are based on the number (8,931) of certified mammography facilities as of October 1, 2024. Title 21 CFR Part 900 Mammography, as amended, includes various reporting, recordkeeping, and third-party disclosure activities. In addition, there was a decrease in state certifiers from 5 to 4 - Illinois, Iowa, South Carolina, and Texas. ROCIS reflects a decrease in burden. The amount shown may not match the actual decrease because the numbers in the previous submission were miscalculated in both the burden table and ROCIS. This submission corrects those errors.
