Collection of Information
Title: FEMA-Administered Disaster Case Management Intake Form.
Type of information collection: New information collection.
OMB Number: 1660-NW132.
FEMA Forms: FF-104-FY-21-146 and FF-104-FY-21-147.
Abstract: This collection tool will primarily be used as a guide to
support FEMA-administered Disaster Case Management (DCM) case managers
by outlining the allowable data elements they can collect from
survivors on behalf of FEMA. While there will be a paper collection
tool, the case managers will primarily be using the tool as a reference
of data elements they can collect, and using their own case management
database systems to guide the order in which the elements are
collected. The elements within the tool are used to assess, screen, and
refer disaster survivors to available resources that address their
specific disaster-related unmet needs. Case managers then take the
information from the intake form and manually upload the data into
their secured case management database.
Prior to any data collection, survivors will complete and sign a
FEMA-administered DCM Consent Form, authorizing FEMA, or its agent, to
collect data from the survivor in order to effectively provide case
management services.
Affected Public: Individuals and Households.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 75,000.
Estimated Number of Responses: 75,000.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 48,000 burden hours.
Estimated Total Annual Respondent Cost: $1,746,240.
Estimated Respondents' Operation and Maintenance Costs: $0.
Estimated Respondents' Capital and Start-Up Costs: $0.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to the Federal Government: $51,640,374.
