Agency Information Collection
Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
Periodically, the Health Resources
and Services Administration (HRSA)
publishes abstracts of information
collection requests under review by the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB), in compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of
the clearance requests submitted to
OMB for review, call the HRSA Reports
Clearance Office on (301) 443–1129.
The following request has been
submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget for review under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995:
Proposed Project
The HRSA Uniform Progress Report
(UPR) is used for the preparation and
submission of continuation applications
for Title VII and VIII health professions
and nursing education and training
programs. The UPR measures grantee
success in meeting (1) the objectives of
the grant project, and (2) the crosscutting outcomes developed for the
Bureau of Health Professions’ education
and training programs. Part I of the
progress report is designed to collect
information to determine whether
sufficient progress has been made on the
approved project objectives, as grantees
must demonstrate satisfactory progress
to warrant continuation of funding. Part
II collects information on activities
specific to a given program. Part III, the
Comprehensive Performance
Management System (CPMS), collects
data on overall project performance
related to the Bureau’s strategic goals,
objectives, outcomes, and indicators.
Progress will be measured based on the
Number of
respondents
Report
Responses
per
respondent
objectives of the grant project, and
outcome measures and indicators
developed by the Bureau to meet
requirements of the Government
Performance and Results Act (GPRA).
The Bureau has simplified several
tables in UPR II and added the ability
for grantees to provide better race and
ethnicity data. In addition, to respond to
the requirements of GPRA, the Bureau
has revised its cross-cutting goals,
expected outcomes, and indicators in
UPR III CPMS that provide the
framework for collection of outcome
data for its Title VII and VIII programs.
An outcome-based performance
system is critical for measuring whether
program support is meeting national
health workforce objectives. At the core
of the performance measurement system
are found cross-cutting goals with
respect to workforce quality, supply,
diversity, and distribution of the health
professions workforce.
The estimated annual burden is as
follows:
