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 Validated Interview and Survey of Outpatient
Providers on Antibiotic Stewardship Interventions 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 31, 2023, to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies. CDC received two comments related to the
previous notice. This notice serves to allow an additional 30 days for
public and affected agency comments.
[[Page 39433]]
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
Validated Interview and Survey of Outpatient Providers on
Antibiotic Stewardship Interventions (OMB Control No. 0920-1308)--
Reinstatement--National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious
Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as part of
its continuing effort to reduce public burden and maximize the utility
of Government information, invites the general public and other Federal
agencies the opportunity to comment on a proposed and/or continuing
information collection, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995. This notice invites comment on a proposed information collection
project titled Validated Follow-up Interview of Clinicians on
Outpatient Antibiotic Stewardship Interventions. This collection aims
to perform an interview of outpatient clinicians regarding the
acceptability and perceived clinician-level barriers associated with
our year-long implementation of interventions designed around the Core
Elements of Outpatient Antibiotic Stewardship.
Data will be collected through semi-structured, in-person
interviews with a sample of 40 clinicians, including nine clinicians
from our original qualitative study to determine changes in perceptions
over time from this baseline. In addition, we are proposing to sample
an additional 31 clinicians to ensure that we do not introduce
unnecessary bias and limit generalizability of the deep contextual
information that would put our results at risk with a smaller sample
size. Data will also be collected through a validated survey
disseminated to clinicians employed by Intermountain. CDC expects about
250 clinicians to respond to our survey. Information gained from
respondents to the two methods of collection will be used to refine,
enhance and improve our stewardship program while allowing us to more
deeply understand the unique environment and barriers found in clinics.
CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 123 annual burden hours.
There is no cost to respondents other than their time to participate.
