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 ``Colorectal Cancer Control Program (CRCCP)
Monitoring Activities'' 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
December 22, 2023 to obtain comments from the public and affected
agencies. CDC received one comment 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
Colorectal Cancer Control Program (CRCCP) Monitoring Activities
(OMB Control No. 0920-1074)--Reinstatement--National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC is requesting a Reinstatement of OMB No. 0920-1074. Colorectal
cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of death from cancer in the
United States among cancers that affect both men and women. There is
substantial evidence that CRC screening reduces the incidence of and
death from the disease. Screening for CRC can detect disease early when
treatment is more effective, and prevent cancer by finding and removing
precancerous polyps. Of individuals diagnosed with early stage CRC,
more than 90% live five or more years. To reduce CRC morbidity,
mortality, and associated costs, use of CRC screening tests must be
increased among age-eligible adults with the lowest CRC screening
rates.
The purpose of the Colorectal Cancer Control Program (CRCCP) is to
partner with health systems and their individual primary care clinics
to implement evidence-based interventions (EBIs) to increase CRC
screening among defined populations of adults ages 50-75 that have CRC
screening rates lower than the national, regional, or local rate. In
2020, CDC issued the funding opportunity, Public Health and Health
System Partnerships to Increase Colorectal Cancer Screening in Clinical
Settings (DP20-2002), a five-year cooperative agreement to increase CRC
screening among defined populations of adults ages 50-75 that have CRC
screening rates lower than the national, regional, or local rate. DP20-
2002 funds recipients to partner with health systems and their primary
care clinics to implement multiple EBIs, partner with organizations to
support implementation of EBIs in those clinics, and collect high-
quality clinic-level data to monitor EBI implementation and assess
screening rate changes.
CDC proposes information collection using three data collection
tools: the Annual Awardee Survey, Clinic-Level Data Collection
Instrument, and Quarterly Program Update.
The Annual Awardee Survey is administered once per year and
assesses: program management, clinic readiness assessment activities,
data management, technical assistance (TA) needs, partnerships, and the
effect of COVID-19 on CRC implementation. The Clinic-Level Information
Collection Instrument is administered three months following each
program year end and assesses: health system and
[[Page 33353]]
clinic characteristics; program reach; CRC screening practices and
outcomes; clinics' quality improvement and monitoring activities; EBI
implementation, and additional factors that affect EBI implementation
over time. The Quarterly Program Update is administered in the month
following each program quarter (i.e., October, January, April, July)
and collects standardized recipient-level information on aspects of
program management, including: quarterly program expenditures, current
staff vacancies, program successes and challenges, current TA needs,
and the effect of COVID-19 on CRCCP implementation at the recipient
level. These data are collected quarterly to facilitate rapid reporting
of programmatic information to support CDC program consultants in
providing tailored and meaningful TA.
This information collection enables CDC to gauge progress in
meeting CRCCP program goals and monitor implementation activities,
evaluate outcomes, and identify recipients' TA needs. In addition, data
collected will inform program improvement and help identify successful
activities that need to be maintained, replicated, or expanded. OMB
approval is requested for three years. The total estimated annualized
burden is 760 hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their
time to participate.
