SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), federal agencies must obtain approval from
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also requires
federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of previously approved information
collection before submitting the collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are publishing this notice of a
proposed data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in comments that will help:
1. 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;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
4. 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
submissions of responses; and
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Human-Centered Design Effort on Bringing Guidelines to the Digital
Age--Existing Collection in Use Without an OMB Control Number--Office
of Public Health Data, Surveillance, and Technology (OPHDST), Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Given the increased demand to improve clinical guideline
development and implementation, a new approach that began with an
initiative on Adapting Clinical Guidelines for the Digital Age has been
expanded by Guidelines International Network (GIN) North America to
implement a future state of guideline development and implementation
that leverages advancements in technology. To identify pain points in
the process, CDC plans to engage individuals from multiple perspectives
in guideline development and implementation in discussion. CDC requests
approval for an Existing Collection in Use Without an OMB Control
Number for a data collection titled Human-Centered Design Effort on
Bringing Guidelines to the Digital Age.
CDC will use semi-structured interviews to collect data for this
study. The interviews will explore insights about guideline development
and implementation as well as pain points in this process. Data will be
used to inform the structure of a human-centered design workshop where
participants use the pain points identified as starting points for
designing solutions. Burden estimates include the time for respondents
to be participate in semi-structured interviews. CDC requests OMB
approval for an estimated 33 annual burden hours. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time to participate.
