Title of the Collection: Challenge and Prize Competition
Solicitations.
Type of Collection: Extension OMB No. 0990-0390--Office of the
Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH).
Abstract: The Office of the Secretary (OS), Department of Health &
Human Services (HHS) requests that the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) approve a request for an extension of generic clearance approval
of the information collected for challenge and prize competition
solicitations. Burden hours were increased from 333 to 558.3 total
burden hours to provide more time for respondents to complete forms
that may include more questions.
Challenges and prize competitions enable HHS to tap into the
expertise and creativity of the public in new ways as well as extend
awareness of HHS programs and priorities. Within HHS, the Office of the
Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH) has taken lead responsibility in
coordinating challenges and prize competitions and implementing
policies regarding the use of these tools. HHS's goal is to engage a
broader number of stakeholders who are inspired to work on some of our
most pressing health issues, thus supporting a new ecosystem of
scientists, developers, and entrepreneurs who can continue to innovate
for public health.
The generic clearance is necessary for HHS to launch several
challenges or prize competitions annually in a short turnaround. The
information collected for these challenges and prize competitions will
generally include the submitter's or other contact person's first and
last name, organizational affiliation and role in the organization (for
identification purposes); email address or other contact information
(to follow up if the submitted solution is selected as a finalist or
winner); street address (to confirm that the submitter or affiliated
organization is located in the United States, for eligibility
purposes); information confirming whether the submitter's age is 13
years or older (to ensure compliance with the Children's Online Privacy
Protection Act of 1998, 15 U.S.C. 6501-6505 (COPPA)) or 18 years or
older (to ensure necessary consents are obtained); and a narrative
description of the solution. HHS may also request information
indicating the submitter's technical background, educational level,
ethnicity, age range, gender, and race (to evaluate entrants' diversity
and backgrounds), how the submitter learned about the challenge or
prize competition and what the submitter currently understands about
the HHS agency hosting the challenge or prize competition (to gauge the
effect of the challenge or prize competition on increasing public
awareness of HHS programs and priorities, and generally to enable HHS
to improve its outreach strategies to ensure a diverse and broad
innovator constituency is fostered through the use of challenges and
prize competitions). Finally, HHS may ask for additional information
tailored to the challenge or prize competition through structured
questions. This information will enable HHS to create and administer
challenges and prize competitions more effectively.
Upon entry or during the judging process, solvers under the age of
18 will be asked to confirm parental consent, which will require them
to obtain and provide a parent or guardian signature in a format
outlined in the specific criteria of each challenge or prize
competition in order to qualify for the contest. To protect online
privacy of minors, birthdate may be required by the website host to
ensure the challenge platform meets the requirements of COPPA.
Eligibility to win a cash prize will be outlined in the specific
criteria of each contest and will only apply to U.S. citizens,
permanent residents, or private entities incorporated in and
maintaining a primary place of business in the U.S. To administer the
cash prize, HHS will need to collect additional relevant payment
information--such as Social Security Number and/or Taxpayer ID and
information regarding the winners' financial institutions--in
[[Page 25666]]
order to comply with financial accounting and income tax reporting
processes.
Likely Respondents: Likely respondents include individuals,
businesses, and state and local governments who choose to participate
in a challenge or prize competition hosted or overseen (i.e., via
contract, etc.) by HHS.
