The estimated annual burden is as follows: Total responses 1 Revision—Division of Cancer Prevention and Control (DCPC), National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States, following lung cancer. Based on scientific evidence which indicates that regular screening is effective in reducing CRC incidence and mortality, regular CRC screening is now recommended for average-risk persons. In 2005, CDC established a demonstration program to screen lowincome individuals 50 years of age and older who have no health insurance or inadequate health insurance for CRC. The five demonstration sites have reported information to CDC including de-identified, patient-level demographic, screening, diagnostic, treatment, outcome and cost reimbursement data (Colorectal Cancer Screening Demonstration Program, OMB No. 0920–0745, exp. 7/31/2010). CDC requests OMB approval to continue the information collection for three years, with changes. First, the number of funded sites will increase from 5 to 26, and the term ‘‘Demonstration’’ will be deleted from the title. Second, there will be a reduction in the burden per respondent associated with the collection of clinical information. Reporting forms for medical complications and medically ineligible clients will be discontinued, the level of detail collected from endoscopy and pathology reports will be reduced, and the reporting form for colorectal cancer clinical data elements 5,000 Hours per response .20 Total burden hours 1,000 (CCDE) will be streamlined. As a result, the reporting burden per CCDE form will be similar regardless of primary test provided. Third, the collection of patient-level reimbursement cost data will be discontinued and will be replaced by the collection of programlevel activity-based cost data using a Cost Assessment Tool (CAT). The information to be collected through the CAT will allow CDC to compare activity-based costs across multiple sites and programs, and will provide a more effective means of monitoring and improving the performance and costeffectiveness of the CRC screening program. Each program site will screen an estimated 375 patients per year. Deidentified CCDE information concerning approximately 187 new screening records will be transmitted to CDC electronically twice per year. Information collected through the Cost Assessment Tool will be transmitted electronically to CDC once per year. Reporting is required for all sites funded through the CRC screening program. The goals of the expanded CRC screening program are to increase population-based screening and to reduce health disparities in CRC screening, incidence and mortality. The program will continue to provide services to low-income individuals age 50 and older with inadequate or no health insurance for CRC. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 3,010. The increase in the number of funded sites and the proposed changes will result in an overall increase in burden to respondents. There are no costs to respondents other than their time.

In 2000, CDC implemented two program evaluation reports for annual submission: Aggregate report of followup for contacts of tuberculosis, and aggregate report of screening and preventive therapy for tuberculosis infection (OMB No. 0920–0457). The respondents for these reports are the 68 state and local tuberculosis control programs receiving federal cooperative agreement funding through DTBE. These reports emphasize treatment outcomes, high-priority target populations vulnerable to tuberculosis, and programmed electronic report entry, which will be transitioned to the National Tuberculosis Indicators Project (NTIP), a secure Web-based system for program evaluation data, in 2010. No other federal agency collects this type of national tuberculosis data, and the aggregate report of follow-up for contacts of tuberculosis, and aggregate report of screening and preventive therapy for tuberculosis infection are the only data source about latent tuberculosis infection for monitoring national progress toward tuberculosis elimination with these activities. CDC provides ongoing assistance in the preparation and utilization of these reports at the local and state levels of public health jurisdiction. CDC also provides respondents with technical support for the NTIP software (Electronic—100%, Use of Electronic Signatures—No).

Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork 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 Paperwork Reduction 
Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). 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 comments should be received within 30 days of this notice.

Proposed Project

    Colorectal Cancer Screening Program (OMB No. 0920-0745 7/31/2010)--
Revision--Division of Cancer Prevention and Control (DCPC), National 
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer-
related deaths in the United States, following lung cancer. Based on 
scientific evidence which indicates that regular screening is effective 
in reducing CRC incidence and mortality, regular CRC screening is now 
recommended for average-risk persons.
    In 2005, CDC established a demonstration program to screen low-
income individuals 50 years of age and older who have no health 
insurance or inadequate health insurance for CRC. The five 
demonstration sites have reported information to CDC including de-
identified, patient-level demographic, screening, diagnostic, 
treatment, outcome and cost reimbursement data (Colorectal Cancer 
Screening Demonstration Program, OMB No. 0920-0745, exp. 7/31/2010).
    CDC requests OMB approval to continue the information collection 
for three years, with changes. First, the number of funded sites will 
increase from 5 to 26, and the term ``Demonstration'' will be deleted 
from the title. Second, there will be a reduction in the burden per 
respondent associated with the collection of clinical information. 
Reporting forms for medical complications and medically ineligible 
clients will be discontinued, the level of detail collected from 
endoscopy and pathology reports will be reduced, and the reporting form 
for colorectal cancer clinical data elements (CCDE) will be 
streamlined. As a result, the reporting burden per CCDE form will be 
similar regardless of primary test provided. Third, the collection of 
patient-level reimbursement cost data will be discontinued and will be 
replaced by the collection of program-level activity-based cost data 
using a Cost Assessment Tool (CAT). The information to be collected 
through the CAT will allow CDC to compare activity-based costs across 
multiple sites and programs, and will provide a more effective means of 
monitoring and improving the performance and cost-effectiveness of the 
CRC screening program.
    Each program site will screen an estimated 375 patients per year. 
De-identified CCDE information concerning approximately 187 new 
screening records will be transmitted to CDC electronically twice per 
year. Information collected through the Cost Assessment Tool will be 
transmitted electronically to CDC once per year. Reporting is required 
for all sites funded through the CRC screening program.
    The goals of the expanded CRC screening program are to increase 
population-based screening and to reduce health disparities in CRC 
screening, incidence and mortality. The program will continue to 
provide services to low-income individuals age 50 and older with 
inadequate or no health insurance for CRC.
    The total estimated annualized burden hours are 3,010. The increase 
in the number of funded sites and the proposed changes will result in 
an overall increase in burden to respondents. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time.
