Proposed Project Minimum Data Elements (MDEs)/ System for Technical Assistance Reporting (STAR) for the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP)— Revision—National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). PO 00000 Frm 00058 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Background and Brief Description The NBCCEDP was established in response to the Congressional Breast and Cervical Cancer Mortality Prevention Act of 1990. This Act mandates a program that will provide early detection and breast and cervical cancer screening services for underserved women. CDC proposes to aggregate breast and cervical cancer screening, diagnostic, and treatment data from NBCCEDP grantees at the state, territory, and tribal level. These aggregated data will include demographic information about women served through funded programs. The proposed data collection will also include infrastructure data about grantee management, public education and outreach, professional education, and service delivery. Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related death among American women. The American Cancer Society (ACS) estimated that 211,240 new cases would be diagnosed among women in 2005, and 40,410 women would die of this disease. Mammography is extremely valuable as an early detection tool because it can detect breast cancer well before the woman can feel the lump, when it is still in an early and more treatable stage. Women older than age 40 that receive annual mammography screening reduce their probability of breast cancer mortality and increase their treatment options. Although early detection efforts have greatly decreased the incidence of invasive cervical cancer in recent decades, ACS estimated that 10,370 new cases would be diagnosed in 2005 and 3,710 women would die of this disease. Papanicolaou (Pap) tests effectively detect precancerous lesions in addition to invasive cervical cancer. The detection and treatment of precancerous lesions can prevent nearly all cervical cancer-related deaths. Because breast and cervical cancer screening, diagnostic and treatment data are already collected and aggregated at the state, territory and tribal level, the additional burden on the grantees will be small. Continuation of this program will require grantees to report a minimum data set (MDE) on screening and follow-up activities electronically to the CDC on a semi-annual basis.

Background and Brief Description Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [30Day–06–0263] Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) publishes a list of information collection requests under review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of these requests, call the CDC Reports Clearance Officer at (404) 639–5960 or send an email to omb@cdc.gov. Send written comments to CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management and Budget, Washington, DC or by fax to (202) 395–6974. Written comments should be received within 30 days of this notice. A registered importer must request a special permit to import Cynomolgus, African Green, or Rhesus Monkeys. To receive a special permit to import nonhuman primates the importer must submit to the Director of CDC, a written plan which specifies the steps that will be taken to prevent exposure of persons and animals during the entire importation and quarantine process for the arriving nonhuman primates. Under the special permit arrangement, registered importers must submit a plan to CDC for the importation and quarantine if they wish to import the specific monkeys covered. The plan must address disease prevention procedures to be carried out in every step of the chain of custody of such monkeys, from embarkation in the country of origin to release from quarantine. Information such as species, origin and intended use for monkeys, transit information, isolation and quarantine procedures, and procedures for testing of quarantined animals is necessary for CDC to make public health decisions. This information enables CDC to evaluate compliance with the standards and to determine whether the measures being taken to prevent exposure of persons and animals during importation are adequate. Once CDC is assured, through the monitoring of shipments (normally no more than 2), that the provisions of a special permit plan are being followed by a new permit holder and that the use of adequate disease control practices is being demonstrated, the special permit is extended to cover the receipt of additional shipments under the same plan for a period of 180 days, and may be renewed upon request. This eliminates the burden on importers to repeatedly report identical information, requiring only that specific shipment itineraries and information on changes to the plan which require approval be submitted. Respondents are commercial or notfor-profit importers of nonhuman primates. The burden represents full submission of information and itinerary/change information respectively. There are no costs to respondents except for their time to complete the requisition process. The total estimated annual burden hours are 20.

Proposed Project

    Minimum Data Elements (MDEs)/System for Technical Assistance 
Reporting (STAR) for the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early 
Detection Program (NBCCEDP)--Revision--National Center for Chronic 
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The NBCCEDP was established in response to the Congressional Breast 
and Cervical Cancer Mortality Prevention Act of 1990. This Act mandates 
a program that will provide early detection and breast and cervical 
cancer screening services for under-served women.
    CDC proposes to aggregate breast and cervical cancer screening, 
diagnostic, and treatment data from NBCCEDP grantees at the state, 
territory, and tribal level. These aggregated data will include 
demographic information about women served through funded programs. The 
proposed data collection will also include infrastructure data about 
grantee management, public education and outreach, professional 
education, and service delivery.
    Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related death among 
American women. The American Cancer Society (ACS) estimated that 
211,240 new cases would be diagnosed among women in 2005, and 40,410 
women would die of this disease. Mammography is extremely valuable as 
an early detection tool because it can detect breast cancer well before 
the woman can feel the lump, when it is still in an early and more 
treatable stage. Women older than age 40 that receive annual 
mammography screening reduce their probability of breast cancer 
mortality and increase their treatment options.
    Although early detection efforts have greatly decreased the 
incidence of invasive cervical cancer in recent decades, ACS estimated 
that 10,370 new cases would be diagnosed in 2005 and 3,710 women would 
die of this disease. Papanicolaou (Pap) tests effectively detect 
precancerous lesions in addition to invasive cervical cancer. The 
detection and treatment of precancerous lesions can prevent nearly all 
cervical cancer-related deaths.
    Because breast and cervical cancer screening, diagnostic and 
treatment data are already collected and aggregated at the state,

be small. Continuation of this program will require grantees to report 
a minimum data set (MDE) on screening and follow-up activities

require grantees to report infrastructure data (STAR) to the CDC 
annually using a web-based system. Information collected will be used 
to obtain more complete breast and cervical cancer data, promote public 
education of cancer incidence and risk, improve the availability of 
screening and diagnostic services for under-served

women, ensure the quality of services provided to women, and develop 
outreach strategies for women that are never or rarely screened for 
breast and cervical cancer. Data collection will continue for the next 
three years. The average annual burden for this effort is 1,972 hours. 
There are no costs to respondents except their time to participate in 
the survey.
