Proposed Project

    Aggregate Reports for Tuberculosis Program Evaluation (OMB No. 
0920-0457 exp. 5/31/2010)--Reinstatement--National Center for HIV/AIDS, 
Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    CDC requests the reinstatement of the Aggregate Reports for 
Tuberculosis Program Evaluation, previously approved under OMB No. 
0920-0457 after the 5/31/2010 expiration date, for 3 years. There are 
no revisions to the report forms, data definitions, or reporting 
instructions.
    To ensure the elimination of tuberculosis in the United States, CDC 
monitors indicators for key program activities, such as finding 
tuberculosis infections in recent contacts of cases and in other 
persons likely to be infected and providing therapy for latent 
tuberculosis infection. In 2000, CDC implemented two program evaluation 
reports for annual submission: Aggregate report of follow-up 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). There is no cost 
to respondents.
