Every effort is made to ensure that individuals from a broad representation of geographic areas, females, ethnic and minority groups, and the disabled are given consideration for membership on HHS Federal advisory committees. Appointment to this Committee shall be made without discrimination on the basis of age, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and cultural, religious, or socioeconomic status. Nominations must state that the nominee is willing to serve as a member of SACHRP and appears to have no conflict of interest that would preclude membership. Potential candidates are required to provide detailed information concerning such matters as financial holdings, consultancies, and research grants or contracts to permit evaluation of possible sources of conflict of interest.

Central cancer registries report that they are chronically understaffed, and many registries are concerned about the impact of staff shortages on data quality standards. Staffing patterns are known to vary widely from registry to registry, and registries differ greatly in the number of incidence cases that they process as well as their use of information technology. Cancer registries have asked for clear staffing guidelines based on registry characteristics such as size (i.e., number of new cases annually), degree of automation, and registry-specific reporting procedures. CDC proposes to conduct a one-time Workload Management Survey (WLM) in 2010 to inform the development of staffing guidelines for central cancer registries. The WLM survey questions do not duplicate the program and performance indicator information reported to CDC on a routine basis. Respondents will be cancer registrars in the NPCR-funded central cancer registries in 45 States and the District of Columbia. Cancer registrars at each registry will maintain a paper-based Work Activities Journal for a one-week period. At the end of the week, the registry manager will consolidate the individual journal worksheets to prepare an aggregate Workload Management Survey for the registry, which will be submitted to CDC electronically. Results of the WLM survey will enable CDC to assess the workforce necessary for meeting data reporting requirements and to estimate the impact of planned changes to surveillance data reporting. Finally, CDC will develop specific guidance so that cancer registry managers can more effectively measure workload, evaluate the need for staff and staff credentials, and advocate for adequate staffing. Participation in the survey is voluntary.

Project: FASD Diagnosis and Intervention Programs in the Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) Center of Excellence—New DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request Periodically, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Since 2001, SAMHSA’s Center for Substance Abuse Prevention has been operating a Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) Center of Excellence which addresses FASD mainly by providing trainings and technical assistance and developing and 29551 supporting systems of care that respond to FASD using effective evidence-based practices and interventions. Currently the integration of evidencebased practices into service delivery organizations is being accomplished through subcontracts. One such intervention which integrates diagnosis and intervention strategies into existing service delivery organizations is the FASD Diagnosis and Intervention programs targeting children 0–18 years of age. The Diagnosis and Intervention programs use the following 11 data collection tools. DESCRIPTION OF INSTRUMENTS/ACTIVITY FOR THE DIAGNOSIS AND INTERVENTION PROGRAMS Instrument/Activity Description Screening and Diagnosis Tool ..................................................... The purpose of the screening and diagnosis tool is to determine eligibility to participate in the SAMHSA FASD Center Diagnosis and Treatment Intervention. The form includes demographic, screening, and diagnostic data. The Positive Monitor Tracking form is to monitor the outcome of placing a child (ages 0–3 years) on a positive monitor. The Services Child is Receiving at the time of the FASD Diagnosis form is to record services the child is receiving at the time of an FASD diagnosis. The Services Planned and Provided based on Diagnostic Evaluation form is to record services planned and received based on the diagnostic evaluation. The Services Delivery Tracking form is for the services provided during every visit. The End of Intervention/Program Improvement Measure—Case Manager form is for the case manager to report on the overall improvement in the child as a result of receiving services. The End of Intervention/Program Improvement Measure—Parent/Guardian form is for the parent/guardian to report on the overall improvement in the child as a result of receiving services. The End of Intervention/Program Customer Satisfaction with Service form is to determine customer satisfaction (parents) with the SAMHSA FASD Center Diagnosis and Intervention project. The Outcome Measures (Children 0–7 years) form is an outcomes measure checklist used to record measures every six months from start of service to end of service, at end of intervention, at 6 months follow-up, and 12 months follow-up. The Outcome Measures (Children 8–18 years) form is an outcomes measure checklist used to record measures every six months from start of service to end of service, at end of intervention, at 6 months follow-up, and 12 months follow-up.

Proposed Project

    Workload Management Study of Central Cancer Registries--New--
Division of Cancer Prevention and Control, National Center for Chronic 
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    CDC currently supports the National Program of Cancer Registries 
(NPCR), a group of central cancer registries in 45 States, the District 
of Columbia, and 2 territories. The central cancer registries are data 
systems that collect, manage, and analyze data about cancer cases and 
cancer deaths. NPCR-funded central cancer registries submit population-
based cancer incidence data to CDC on an annual basis (OMB No. 0920-
0469, exp. 1/31/2010). In addition, NPCR-funded registries submit 
program and performance indicator information to CDC on a semi-annual 
schedule (OMB No. 0920-0706, exp. 12/31/2011). CDC uses the performance 
indicators to evaluate the registries' use of funds, their progress 
toward meeting objectives, and their infrastructure and operational 
attributes.
    Central cancer registries report that they are chronically 
understaffed, and many registries are concerned about the impact of 
staff shortages on data quality standards. Staffing patterns are known 
to vary widely from registry to registry, and registries differ greatly 
in the number of incidence cases that they process as well as their use 
of information technology. Cancer registries have asked for clear 
staffing guidelines based on registry characteristics such as size 
(i.e., number of new cases annually), degree of automation, and 
registry-specific reporting procedures.
    CDC proposes to conduct a one-time Workload Management Survey (WLM) 
in 2010 to inform the development of staffing guidelines for central 
cancer registries. The WLM survey questions do not duplicate the 
program and performance indicator information reported to CDC on a 
routine basis. Respondents will be cancer registrars in the NPCR-funded 
central cancer registries in 45 States and the District of Columbia. 
Cancer registrars at each registry will maintain a paper-based Work 
Activities Journal for a one-week period. At the end of the week, the 
registry manager will consolidate the individual journal worksheets to 
prepare an aggregate Workload Management Survey for the registry, which 
will be submitted to CDC electronically.
    Results of the WLM survey will enable CDC to assess the workforce 
necessary for meeting data reporting requirements and to estimate the 
impact of planned changes to surveillance data reporting. Finally, CDC 
will develop specific guidance so that cancer registry managers can 
more effectively measure workload, evaluate the need for staff and 
staff credentials, and advocate for adequate staffing.
    Participation in the survey is voluntary. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time.
