Information Collection Request Title: Transforming Pediatrics for
Early Childhood Program Performance Measures, OMB No. 0906-New.
Abstract: The Transforming Pediatrics for Early Childhood (TPEC)
Program is authorized by 42 U.S.C. 701(a)(2) (Title V, Sec. 501(a)(2)
of the Social Security Act), which authorizes awards for special
projects of regional and national significance in maternal and child
health. Special projects of regional and national significance support
HRSA's mission to improve the health and well-being of America's
mothers, children, and families. Through the TPEC Program, HRSA
directly funds organizations with statewide or tribal reach to place
early childhood development experts in local pediatric practices to
deliver team-based care to young children and their families. All TPEC
funding recipients will collect data and report standardized annual
performance measures included in this ICR.
Need and Proposed Use of the Information: HRSA will use the
information to monitor and provide oversight to TPEC funding recipients
so the recipients can successfully access, analyze, and use pediatric
practice-level and state-level data to meet program goals. HRSA will
also use the performance information to demonstrate program
accountability and impact to young children and their families served
by the TPEC-funded pediatric practices.
Likely Respondents: TPEC funding recipients.
Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the
information requested. This includes the time needed to review
instructions; to develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and
systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying
[[Page 20473]]
information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and
providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and
review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise
disclose the information. The total annual burden hours estimated for
this ICR are summarized in the table below.

HRSA specifically requests comments on: (1) the necessity and
utility of the proposed information collection for the proper
performance of the agency's functions; (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information to be collected; and (4) the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology to
minimize the information collection burden.
