Proposed Project
National Survey of Residential Care
Facilities (NSRCF) (OMB No. 0920–
0780)—Revision—National Center for
Health Statistics (NCHS), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Section 306 of the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 242k), as
amended, authorizes that the Secretary
of Health and Human Services (DHHS),
acting through NCHS, ‘‘shall collect
statistics on health resources * * *
[and] utilization of health care,
including extended care facilities, and
other institutions.’’
In 2008, NCHS sought approval for a
pretest and full survey of The National
Survey of Residential Care Facilities
(NSRCF). OMB approved only the
pretest which has been completed.
NCHS now seeks approval to collect the
full survey. The survey is designed to
complement data collected by other
Federal surveys and to fill a significant
data gap about a major portion of the
long-term care population. Data from
NSRCF will provide information on
residential care facilities that
policymakers, providers, and
researchers can use to address a wide
array of policy and research questions.
The survey will utilize a computerassisted personal interviewing (CAPI)
system to collect information about
facility and resident characteristics.
This computerized system speeds the
flow of data; making it possible to
release information on a timely basis
and easier for respondents to participate
in the survey. The CAPI system may
also enhance data quality. Clearance for
two years is being requested.
A stratified random sample of
residential care facilities across four
strata (small, medium, large and very
large) will be selected to participate in
NSRCF. To be eligible a facility must be
licensed, registered, listed, certified, or
otherwise regulated by the State;
provide room and board with at least
two meals a day; provide around-the-
clock on-site supervision; assist with
activities of daily living (e.g., bathing,
eating, or dressing) or medication
supervision; serve a primarily adult
population; and have at least four beds.
The facility questionnaire will collect
data about facility characteristics (e.g.,
size, age, types of rooms), services
offered, characteristics of the resident
population, facility policies and
services, charges for services, and
background of the director. The resident
questionnaire collects information on
resident demographics, current living
arrangements within the facility,
involvement in activities, use of
services, charges for care, health status,
and cognitive and physical functioning.
For the national survey,
approximately 2,250 facilities will be
surveyed for an annual average of 1,125
facilities; information on an average of
4 residents will be collected from the
annual average facility staff. Residents
themselves will not be interviewed.
Users of NSRCF data include, but are
not limited to CDC; other Department of
Health and Human Services (DHHS)
agencies, such as the Office of the
Assistant Secretary for Planning and
Evaluation and the Agency for
Healthcare Research and Quality; and
associations, such as the American
Association of Homes and Services for
the Aging, National Center for Assisted
Living, American Seniors Housing
Association, Assisted Living Federation
of America; universities; foundations;
and other private sector organizations.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time to participate. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
3,572.

Reduction Act Review
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) publishes a list of
information collection requests under
review by the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) in compliance with the
requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
To request a copy of these requests, call
the CDC Reports Clearance Officer at
(404) 639–5960 or send an e-mail to
omb@cdc.gov. Send written comments
to CDC Desk Officer, Office of
Management and Budget, Washington,
DC or by fax to (202) 395–5806. Written
Section 306 of the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 242k), as
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.
The annual National Health Interview
Survey is a major source of general
statistics on the health of the U.S.
population and has been in the field
continuously since 1957. Clearance is
sought for three years, to collect data for
2010, 2011, and 2012. This voluntary
household-based survey collects
demographic and health-related
information on a nationally
representative sample of persons and
households throughout the country.
Information is collected using computer
assisted personal interviews (CAPI). A
core set of data is collected each year
while sponsored supplements vary from
year to year. For 2010, we are revising
the supplements to collect information
on cancer, immunization, disability,
occupational injury, epilepsy, and child
mental health.
In accordance with the 1995 initiative
to increase the integration of surveys
within the Department of Health and
Human Services, respondents to the
NHIS serve as the sampling frame for
the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey
conducted by the Agency for Healthcare
Research and Quality. The NHIS has
long been used by government,
university, and private researchers to
evaluate both general health and
specific issues, such as cancer, diabetes,
and access to health care. It is a leading
source of data for the Congressionallymandated ‘‘Health US’’ and related
publications, as well as the single most
important source of statistics to track
progress toward the National Health
Promotion and Disease Prevention
Objectives, ‘‘Healthy People 2010.’’
There is no cost to the respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
34,977.
