Background and Brief Description

    The Office of Chief of Public Health Practice is proposing to 
revise and extend the formal, voluntary data collection that assesses 
the capacity of local public health systems to deliver the essential 
services of public health. Local health departments will respond to the 
survey on behalf of the collective body of representatives from the 
local public health system. Electronic data submission will be used 
when local public health agencies complete the public health 
assessment.
    A three-year approval is being sought with the revised data 
collection instrument. The original data collection instrument has been 
valuable in assessing performance and capacity and identifying areas 
for improvement. It is anticipated that the updated data collection 
instrument will be voluntarily used by local public health systems for 
similar purposes.
