opportunity for public comment on
proposed data collection projects, the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed projects. To
request more information on the
proposed projects or to obtain a copy of
the data collection plans and
instruments, call 404–639–5960 and
send comments to Seleda Perryman,
CDC Assistant Reports Clearance
Officer, 1600 Clifton Road, MS–D74,
Atlanta, GA 30333 or send an e-mail to
omb@cdc.gov.
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
and clinical research. A minimum of
essential information is collected
regarding the deceased miners,
including occupational history and
smoking history. The data collected will
be used by the staff at NIOSH for
research purposes in defining the
diagnostic criteria for coal workers’
pneumoconiosis (black lung disease)
and pathologic changes and will be
correlated with x-ray findings.
It is estimated that only 5 minutes is
required for the pathologist to generate
a statement on the invoice affirming that
no other compensation is received for
the autopsy. The consent release and
history form takes the next-of-kin
approximately 15 minutes to complete.
Since an autopsy report is routinely
completed by a pathologist, the only
additional burden is the specific request
of abstract of terminal illness and final
diagnosis relating to pneumoconiosis.
Therefore, only 5 minutes of additional
burden is estimated for the autopsy
report. There are no costs to the
respondents, other than their time.

Background and Brief Description
Under the Federal Coal Mine Health
and Safety Act of 1977, PL 91–173
(amended the Federal Coal Mine and
Safety Act of 1969), the Public Health
Service has developed a nationwide
autopsy program for underground coal
miners, the National Coal Workers
Autopsy Study (NCWAS). The consent
release and history form is primarily
used to obtain written authorization
from the next-of-kin to perform an
autopsy on the deceased miner. The
basic reason for the post-mortem
examination is both epidemiological

Proposed Project
Assessment and Evaluation of the
Role of Care Coordination (Case
Management) in Improving Access and
Care within the Spina Bifida Clinic
System—New—National Center on
Birth Defects and Developmental
Disabilities (NCBDDD), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Spina bifida is one of the most
common birth defects, affecting
approximately 2 per 10,000 live births
in the United States annually. Providing
care for people who are born with spina
bifida is complex and challenging.
Studies have shown that care
coordination is beneficial for
individuals with complex health
conditions such as cystic fibrosis and
sickle cell anemia. However, the extent
to which care coordination is effective
for assisting individuals with spina
bifida is currently unknown. To learn
more about what factors may help or act

as barriers to the provision of effective
care coordination for individuals with
spina bifida, CDC’s National Center on
Birth Defects and Developmental
Disabilities proposes to conduct a study
using focus groups and interviews. The
proposed activity is part of the National
Spina Bifida Program mandated in
Section 317C of the Public Health
Service Act (42 U.S.C. 247b–4)
coordination for individuals with spina
bifida including how care is coordinated
in the clinic, barriers and facilitators to
the provision of care coordination, the
effectiveness of care coordination, and
recommendations for improving care
coordination. All responses to the focus
groups and interviews will be treated in
a private manner.
There will be no costs to the
respondents other than their time.
Researchers will visit 10 spina bifida
clinics nationwide. At each clinic, 1
focus group with approximately 8
caregivers of children with spina bifida
will be conducted. Each focus group
will last about 2 hours. At each clinic,
approximately 5 clinical staff will be
interviewed; each interview will take
approximately 45 minutes. Focus group
and interview respondents will be asked
a variety of questions related to care
