    Information Collection Request Title: National Health Service Corps 
Scholar/Students to Service Travel Worksheet, OMB No. 0906-0087--
Revision
    Abstract: Clinicians participating in the HRSA National Health 
Service Corps (NHSC) Scholarship Program and the Students to Service 
(S2S) Loan Repayment Program use the online Travel Request Worksheet to 
request and receive travel funds from the federal government to, in 
accordance with the Public Health Service Act, section 331(c)(1), visit 
eligible NHSC sites to which they may be assigned.
    The travel approval process is initiated when an NHSC scholar or 
S2S participant notifies the NHSC of an impending interview at one or 
more NHSC-approved practice sites. The Travel Request Worksheet is also 
used to initiate the relocation reimbursement process, in accordance 
with the Public Health Service Act, section 331(c)(3), after an NHSC 
scholar or S2S participant has successfully been matched to an approved 
practice site. Upon receipt of a completed Travel Request Worksheet, 
the NHSC will review and approve or disapprove the request and promptly 
notify the NHSC scholar or S2S participant and the NHSC logistics 
contractor regarding travel arrangements and authorization of the 
funding for the site visit or relocation.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: This information will 
facilitate NHSC scholar and S2S participants' receipt of federal travel 
funds that are used to visit high-need NHSC-approved practice sites. 
The Travel Request Worksheet is also used to initiate the relocation 
process after an NHSC scholar or S2S participant has successfully 
matched to an approved practice site.
    Likely Respondents: Clinicians participating in the NHSC 
Scholarship Program and the S2S Loan Repayment Program.
    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 
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.
