Electronic Disease Surveillance System
(NEDSS) and Public Health Information
Network (PHIN). Following the
transition, many respondents will
implement a PHIN compatible
information system to collect and report
TB surveillance data via the PHIN
Messaging System. The remaining
respondents will employ the NEDSS
base system. These respondents will be
able to use either the associated TB
Program Area Module or their own TB
surveillance application to collect and
report RVCT data to CDC.
CDC publishes an annual report
summarizing national TB statistics and
also periodically conducts special
analyses for publication in peerreviewed scientific journals to further
describe and interpret national TB data.
These data assist public health officials
and policy makers in program planning,
evaluation, and resource allocation.
Reporting Areas also review and analyze
their RVCT data to monitor local TB
trends, evaluate program success, and
assist in focusing resources to eliminate
TB.
No other Federal agency collects this
type of national TB data. In addition to
providing technical assistance on the
use of RVCT, CDC also provides
Reporting Areas with technical support
for the TIMS software. In this request,
CDC is requesting approval for 7,560
burden hours, a decrease of 780 hours.
There are no costs to respondents except
for their time. This decrease is due to a
decrease in the total number of
tuberculosis cases.

Comment Request
In compliance with the requirement
for opportunity for public comment on
proposed data collection projects
(section 3506(c)(2)(A)) of Title 44,
United States Code, as amended by the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
Public Law 104–13, the Health
Resources and Services Administration
(HRSA) publishes periodic summaries
of proposed projects being developed
for submission to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

To request more information on the
proposed project or to obtain a copy of
the data collection plans and draft
instruments, call the HRSA Reports
Clearance Officer on (301) 443–1129.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.

veterinary medicine, optometry,

NSL Program provides long-term, lowinterest loans to students who attend
eligible schools of nursing in programs
leading to a diploma in nursing, and an
associate degree, a baccalaureate degree,
or a graduate degree in nursing.
Participating HPSL and NSL schools are
responsible for determining eligibility of
applicants, making loans, and collecting
monies owed by borrowers on their
outstanding loans. The deferment form
(HRSA form 519) provides the schools
with documentation of a borrower’s
eligibility for deferment. The Annual
Operating Report (AOR–HRSA form
501) provides the Federal Government
with information from participating and
non-participating schools (schools that
are no longer granting loans but are
required to report and maintain program
records, student records, and repayment
records until all student loans are repaid
in full and all monies due the Federal
Government are returned) relating to
HPSL and NSL program operations and
financial activities.

Outcome Study of National Health
Service Corps (NHSC) Chiropractor and
Pharmacist Loan Repayment
Demonstration Project—New
In 2002, Congress authorized a
demonstration project to provide for the
participation of chiropractors and
pharmacists in the NHSC Loan
Repayment Program. This study
provides for an evaluation of the
demonstration project to determine (1)
the manner in which the demonstration
project has affected access to primary
care services, patient satisfaction,
quality of care, and health care services
provided for traditionally underserved
populations; (2) how the participation of
chiropractors and pharmacists in the
Loan Repayment Program might affect
the designation of health professional
shortage areas; and (3) whether adding
chiropractors and pharmacists as
permanent members of the NHSC would
be feasible and would enhance the
effectiveness of the NHSC.
