Need and Use of Information Collection: The IHS goal is to raise the health status of the American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) people to the highest possible level by providing comprehensive health care and preventive health services. To support the IHS mission and encourage the creation and utilization of performance driven products/ services by IHS, Tribal, and urban Indian health (I/T/U) programs, the Office of Preventive and Clinical Services' program divisions (i.e., Behavioral Health, Health Promotion/Disease Prevention, Nursing, and Dental) have developed a centralized program database of best practices, promising practices and local efforts (BPPPLE) and resources. The purpose of this collection is to further the development of a database of BPPPLE, resources, and policies which are available to the public on the IHS.gov Web site. This database will be a resource for program evaluation and for modeling examples of various health care projects occurring in AI/AN communities.

The information collected will enable the Indian health systems to: (a) Identify evidence based approaches to prevention programs among the I/T/Us when no system is currently in place, and (b) Allow the program managers to review BPPPLEs occurring among the I/T/Us when considering program planning for their communities. Affected Public: Individuals. Type of Respondents: I/T/U health programs' staff.
