safe driving are necessary. In
preparation for a national campaign to
educate parents about their role in their
teens’ driver education, it is necessary
to determine the most effective
messages and channels through which
to communicate with parents. Ogilvy
Public Relations Worldwide,
PerformTech, International
Communications Research (ICR) Survey
and Fieldwork Network, on behalf of
CDC, will conduct two studies to assess
the appropriateness and impact of
messages and creative materials
intended to (a) increase parental
involvement in their teen’s driving
education and experience, and (b)
encourage teens to adopt safer driving
practices.
The first information collection will
be accomplished through focus group
testing of campaign messages and
materials with representatives from our
target audiences, parents and teens, in
two cities in the U.S. The findings will
provide valuable information regarding
parents’ and teens’ levels of awareness
and concern about safe driving;
motivators for behavior change,
especially GDL compliance; and
message/channel preferences. The
information collected will be used to
develop final creative materials to
implement the teen safe driving
campaign in pilot cities. The second
information collection will be
accomplished through pilot city testing,
which will evaluate knowledge,
attitude, and behaviors of intended
audiences both pre- and post
communications campaign. The
campaign will target parents of newly
licensed drivers. It will encourage
parents to understand state regulations
regarding new drivers, talk with their
teens about safe driving practices, and
both manage and monitor their teens’
driving behavior. Testing will be
conducted through brief telephone
surveys intended to assess knowledge,
attitudes, and behaviors of parents and
teens related to safe driving practices,
GDL laws, and parental management of
new drivers before and after the
campaign; with the goal of observing a
marked increase in parental
management at the time of the post
campaign survey.
There is no cost to the respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
292.

Agency Information Collection
Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services, HHS.
In compliance with the requirement
of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
Services (CMS), Department of Health
and Human Services, is publishing the
following summary of proposed
collections for public comment.
Interested persons are invited to send
comments regarding this burden
estimate or any other aspect of this
collection of information, including any
of the following subjects: (1) The
necessity and utility of the proposed
information collection for the proper
performance of the Agency’s function;
(2) the accuracy of the estimated
burden; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (4) the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology to
minimize the information collection
burden.
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: New collection; Title of
Information Collection: Conditions of

Hospitals; Use: With this submission,
we are creating a new information
collection request for critical access
hospitals (CAH). Currently, the

associated with the critical access
hospital (CAH) conditions of
participation (CoPs) are included with
the hospital CoPs reported under CMS–
R–48 (0938–0328). Because the CAH
program has grown in scope of services
and the number of providers, we have
removed the CAH burden from the
CMS–R–48 with the exception of the
burden associated with the 101 CAHs
that have distinct part units (DPUs), and
created a separate information
collection request for OMB review and
approval. Section 1820(c)(2)(E)(i) of the
Social Security Act states that if a CAH
operates a distinct part psychiatric or
rehabilitation unit it must have 10 beds
or less in the DPU and it must comply
with the hospital requirements specified
in 42 CFR Subpart A, B, C, and D of part
482. Based on 2007 data from HRSA, 81
CAHs have psychiatric distinct part
units (DPUs) and 20 CAHs have
rehabilitation DPUs. The burden
associated with the 101 CAHs with
DPUs is reported in CMS–R–48. Form
Number: CMS–10239 (OMB#: 0938New); Frequency: Yearly; Affected
Public: Private sector—Business or other
for-profit; Number of Respondents:
1,189; Total Annual Responses:

2. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Hospital

Supporting Regulations in 42 CFR

482.61, 482.62, and 485.616 and
485.631; Use: The information
collection requirements described in
this information collection request are
needed to implement the Medicare and
Medicaid conditions of participation
(CoP) for 4,890 accredited and nonaccredited hospitals and an additional
101 critical access hospitals (CAHs) that
have distinct part psychiatric or
rehabilitation units (DPUs). CAHs that
have DPUs must comply with all of the
hospital CoPs on these units. Thus, this

package reflects the paperwork burden
for a total of 4,991 (that is, 4,890
hospitals and 101 CAHs which include
81 CAHs that have psychiatric DPUs
and 20 CAHs that have rehabilitation
DPUs). The information collection
requirements for the remaining 1,183
CAHs have been reported in a separate
package under CMS–10239.
The CoPs and accompanying
requirements specified in the
regulations are used by our surveyors as
a basis for determining whether a
hospital qualifies for a provider
agreement under Medicare and
Medicaid. CMS and the health care
industry believe that the availability to
the facility of the type of records and
general content of records, which this
regulation specifies, is standard medical
practice and is necessary in order to
ensure the well-being and safety of
patients and professional treatment
accountability. Form Number: CMS–R–

Description of Correction
The previous 30-day Federal Register Notice published on December
26, 2007, Volume 72, No. 246, Page 73022-73023, was submitted with an
error showing the number of respondents for the Pre/Post Intervention
Survey Screener as 900 and the number of respondents for the Pre/Post
Survey as 400. This correction increases the number of respondents to
1800 and 800 respectively.
Background and Brief Description
Car crashes are the number one killer of teens, accounting for
approximately one-third of all deaths within this age group. The
National Center for Health Statistics reports that in 2004, a total of
3,620 young drivers were killed and an additional 303,000 were injured
in motor vehicle crashes. In order to reduce these preventable deaths
and injuries, parental awareness and education about Graduated Driver's
Licensing (GDL) laws and the ways that parents can influence their
children's safe driving are necessary. In preparation for a national
campaign to educate parents about their role in their teens' driver
education, it is necessary to determine the most effective messages and
channels through which to communicate with parents. Ogilvy Public
Relations Worldwide, PerformTech, International Communications Research
(ICR) Survey and Fieldwork Network, on behalf of CDC, will conduct two
studies to assess the appropriateness and impact of messages and
creative materials intended to (a) increase parental involvement in
their teen's driving education and experience, and (b) encourage teens
to adopt safer driving practices.
The first information collection will be accomplished through focus
group testing of campaign messages and materials with representatives
from our target audiences, parents and teens, in two cities in the U.S.
The findings will provide valuable information regarding parents' and
teens' levels of awareness and concern about safe driving; motivators

behaviors of intended audiences both pre- and post communications
campaign. The campaign will target parents of newly licensed drivers.
It will encourage parents to understand state regulations regarding new
drivers, talk with their teens about safe driving practices, and both
manage and monitor their teens' driving behavior. Testing will be
conducted through brief telephone surveys intended to assess knowledge,
attitudes, and behaviors of parents and teens related to safe driving
practices, GDL laws, and parental management of new drivers before and
after the campaign; with the goal of observing a marked increase in
parental management at the time of the post campaign survey.
There is no cost to the respondents other than their time. The
total estimated annualized burden hours are 292.
