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, e-mail
paperwork@hrsa.gov or 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: Nurse Faculty Loan
Program-Program Specific Data Form—
In Use Without Approval
The Nurse Faculty Loan Program
(NFLP)-Program Specific Form is for
electronic submission of required data.
This clearance request is for approval of
the NFLP-Program Specific Data Form
to collect the data required to make
award determinations for eligible
applicants.
The Nurse Faculty Loan Program
(NFLP) is authorized under Title VIII of
the Public Health Service Act, Section
846A, as amended by the Nurse
Reinvestment Act, Public Law 107–205
to increase the number of qualified
nurse faculty. The HHS, acting through
HRSA, may enter into an agreement
with schools of nursing and make an
award to establish and operate a distinct
NFLP loan fund. The NFLP loan fund is
used by the applicant school of nursing
to make loans to eligible students
pursuing an advanced nursing degree
program that will prepare the student to
become qualified as a nursing faculty.
The NFLP-Program Specific Data
Form will capture program-related
information provided by the applicant.
NFLP applicants will complete and
submit the NFLP-Program Specific Data
Form as an electronic attachment with
the required application materials. The
form will provide the Federal
Government with specific data from the
applicant which include: (1) The
amount of the Federal funds requested
by the applicant, (2) the expected
contribution from the applicant, (3) the
student enrollment and graduation data
based on current and prospective NFLP
loan recipients, (4) the graduate nursing
education programs supported under
NFLP, (5) the program accreditation
status, (6) the current tuition and fee
information for graduate nursing
education programs, and (7) the
projected NFLP loan fund balance that
may be considered as part of the award
determination. The data provided in the
form are essential for the formula-based
criteria used to determine the award
amount to the applicant institutions.
Approval of the new NFLP-Program
Specific Data Form will facilitate our
current effort to develop an automated
data collection capability for the NFLP.
The electronic data collection capability
will streamline the application
submission process, enable an efficient
award determination process, and serve
as a data repository to facilitate
reporting on the use of funds and
analysis of program outcomes.
Additionally, the data will be used to
ensure programmatic compliance with
the legislative authority and program
guidance, to report program
accomplishments to policymakers and
Congress, and to formulate and justify
the appropriation request to the Office
of Management and Budget and
Congress.
