Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information 
collection request titled Assessment of a Training Program to Improve 
Continuity of Care for Children and Families Affected by Fetal Alcohol 
Spectrum Disorders (FASD) to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
for review and approval. CDC previously published a ``Proposed Data 
Collection Submitted for Public Comment and Recommendations'' notice on 
March 8, 2021 to obtain comments from the public and affected agencies. 
CDC did not receive comments related to the previous notice. This 
notice serves to allow an additional 30 days for public and affected 
agency comments.
    CDC will accept all comments for this proposed information 
collection project. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly 
interested in comments that:
    (a) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    (b) Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    (c) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected;
    (d) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including, through the use of appropriate 
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting 
electronic submission of responses; and
    (e) Assess information collection costs.
    To request additional information on the proposed project or to 
obtain a copy of the information collection plan and instruments, call 
(404) 639-7570. Comments and recommendations for the proposed 
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of 
this notice to <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular 
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. Direct 
written comments and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in 
this notice to the Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management 
and Budget, 725 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202) 
395-5806. Provide written comments within 30 days of notice 
publication.

Proposed Project

    Assessment of a Training Program to Improve Continuity of Care for 
Children and Families Affected by Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders 
(FASD)--New--National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental 
Disabilities (NCBDDD), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The purpose of this information collection is to assess a 
curriculum for training pediatric residents to identify, refer and care 
for children with prenatal exposure to alcohol or a fetal alcohol 
spectrum disorder (FASD). The curriculum was developed by the

[[Page 38102]]

American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) with support from CDC. The 
curriculum uses a Train-the-Trainer model whereby attending physicians 
at developmental continuity clinics receive in-depth training and then 
facilitate training of first-year pediatric residents in their own 
clinics.
    In Phase One, training for attending physicians will be organized 
around four presentations by experts in the identification, diagnosis, 
and care of children with FASD and their families. Pre/post-test 
assessments will be obtained for each presentation, followed by an 
overall assessment at the end of the training day.
    In Phase Two, the attending physicians will implement a curriculum 
of continuing medical education activities with their first-year 
pediatric residents. Required activities for residents include viewing 
three pre-recorded video presentations. Changes in residents' knowledge 
of training content will be assessed both before and after the video 
presentations.
    Pre/post-test data will be collected through paper-and-pencil 
surveys for in-person training of attending physicians, and by secure 
email for resident trainees. Attending physicians will also be asked to 
participate in a final project debriefing conference call.
    The purpose and use of the assessment data will be to assure that 
specific information in the FASD training curriculum is conveyed and 
understood by participants. The public health goal is to strengthen the 
identification, referral, and care of children with prenatal exposure 
to alcohol.
    OMB approval is requested for three years. Approximately 10 clinics 
will be recruited each year. Respondents will be one attending 
physician per clinic, and approximately 25 pediatric residents per 
clinic. Participation is voluntary and there are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden is 223 hours.
