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 ``Assessment of Outcomes Associated with the
Preventive Health and Health Services Block Grant'' 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 6, 2024, 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
Assessment of Outcomes Associated with the Preventive Health and
Health Services Block Grant (OMB No. 0920-1257, Exp. 06/30/2025)--
Revision--National Center for STLT Public Health Infrastructure and
Workforce (PHIC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The PHHS Block Grant, administered by CDC, provides funding to 61
jurisdictions: all 50 states, the District of Columbia, two American
Indian tribes, five U.S. territories, and three freely associated
states. PHHS Block Grant recipients use this funding to address the
unique public health needs of their jurisdictions in innovative and
locally defined ways. In 2017, 2019, and 2022 CDC collected information
from PHHS recipients to assess select cross-cutting outputs and
outcomes of the PHHS Block Grant.
In this Revision, CDC requests OMB approval to continue information
collection over a three-year period. Assessment surveys will be
administered in 2025 and 2027 based on the web-based survey instrument
launched in 2022. No questions have been added or deleted; however,
prompts were added to the Q5 and Q8 series to reduce errors. Prompts
inform respondents that the number of items should equal the value from
a previous question in which they input total values. A piped-text
entry based on the value input is used to provide the actual total
provided by the respondent.
The legislative authority for the PHHS Block Grant aligns recipient
activities to HHS Healthy People 2030 objectives, and additional
changes are anticipated to maintain this alignment and ensure
compliance with Executive Orders. CDC will submit Change Requests to
OMB as guidance becomes available. Findings of the PHHS Block Grant
Assessment will be used to: (1) describe the outcomes and achievements
of recipients' public health efforts and identify how the use of PHHS
Block Grant funds contributed to those results; and (2) help assess how
the grant advances work of the public health system and provide
evidence to support future budgetary requests.
OMB approval is requested for three years. Participation in the
assessment survey is voluntary. CDC plans to administer the assessment
survey in 2025 and 2027 to the 61 entities that receive PHHS Block
Grant funding. There is no change to the estimated burden per response
(45 minutes), however, there is a reduction in total
[[Page 24629]]
estimated annualized burden. Previous submissions were incorrectly
annualized and overestimated total burden. The current Revision request
corrects these estimates. The annualized number of respondents is 41
and the total estimated annualized burden is 31 hours.
