Background and Brief Description
Section 306 of the Public Health

amended, authorizes that the Secretary
of Health and Human Services (DHHS),
acting through NCHS, shall collect
statistics on ‘‘the extent and nature of
illness and disability of the population
of the United States.’’ This is a request
for a generic approval from OMB to
conduct customer surveys over the next
three years.
As part of a comprehensive program,
the National Center for Health Statistics

customers’ satisfaction with the quality
and relevance of the information it
produces. NCHS will conduct voluntary
sponsored conferences; persons who
access the NCHS Web site and the
detailed data available through it;
consultants; and others. Respondent
data items may include (in broad
categories) information regarding
respondent’s gender, age, occupation,
affiliation, location, etc., to be used to
characterize responses only. Other
questions will attempt to obtain
information that will characterize the
respondents’ familiarity with and use of
NCHS data, their assessment of data
content and usefulness, general
satisfaction with available services and
products, and suggestions for
improvement of services and products.
The resulting information will be for
NCHS internal use. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time to
participate in the survey.

agency products and services and to
evaluate how well it addresses the
emerging needs of its data users. Results

rely on NCHS data, the broader
educational, research, and public health
community, and other data users.
Respondents may include data users
who register for and/or attend NCHS
