ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 300jj–11.
This notice announces the
availability of test tools and test
procedures approved by the National
Coordinator for Health Information
Technology (the National Coordinator)
for the testing of Complete EHRs and/or
EHR Modules by ONC-Authorized
Testing and Certification Bodies (ONC–
ATCBs) under the ONC temporary
certification program. The approved test
tools and test procedures are identified
on the ONC Web site at: https://

final rule establishing a temporary
certification program for the purposes of
testing and certifying health information
technology (‘‘Establishment of the
Temporary Certification Program for
Health Information Technology,’’ 75 FR
36158) (Temporary Certification
Program final rule).1 The Temporary
Certification Program final rule added a
new ‘‘Subpart D—Temporary
Certification Program for HIT’’ to part
170 of title 45 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR). Section 170.423(e) of
Subpart D requires ONC–ATCBs to
‘‘[u]se test tools and test procedures
approved by the National Coordinator
for the purposes of assessing Complete
EHRs and/or EHR Modules compliance
with the certification criteria adopted by
the Secretary.’’ The preamble of the
Temporary Certification Program final
rule stated that when the National
Coordinator had approved test tools
and/or test procedures ONC would
publish a notice of availability in the
Federal Register and identify the
approved test tools and test procedures
on the ONC Web site. As discussed in
the Temporary Certification Program
final rule, we anticipated that test tools
and test procedures would not be
finalized by the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST), and
therefore unable to be considered for
approval by the National Coordinator,
until after the Secretary made publicly
available a final rule for the initial set
of standards, implementation
specifications, and certification criteria
for electronic health record technology.2
This final rule, ‘‘Health Information
Technology: Initial Set of Standards,
Implementation Specifications, and
Certification Criteria for Electronic
Health Record Technology’’ (HIT
Standards and Certification Criteria
final rule) was made available for public
inspection on July 13, 2010, and was
published in the Federal Register on
July 28, 2010.
The National Coordinator has
approved, for use by ONC–ATCBs in
accordance with 45 CFR 170.423(e), test
tools and test procedures developed by
NIST for testing Complete EHRs and/or
1 The Department issued a proposed rule entitled
‘‘Proposed Establishment of Certification Programs
for Health Information Technology’’ (75 FR 11328,
March 10, 2010) that proposed the establishment of
a temporary certification program and a permanent
certification program and stated the Department’s
intentions to issue separate final rules for each
program.
2 The ‘‘Health Information Technology: Initial Set
of Standards, Implementation Specifications, and
Certification Criteria for Electronic Health Record
Technology’’ interim final rule was made available
for public inspection on December 30, 2009, and
published in the Federal Register on January 13,
2010 (75 FR 2014).

Periodically, the Health Resources

collection requests under review by the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB), in compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of

The following request has been
submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget for review under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995:
Proposed Project: Title: ‘‘Health Care
and Other Facilities’’ Project Status
Update Form (OMB No. 0915–0309)—
[Extension] .
The Health Resources and Services
Administration’s Health Care and Other
Facilities (HCOF) program provides
congressionally-directed funds to
health-related facilities for constructionrelated activities and/or capital
equipment purchases. Awarded
facilities are required to provide a
periodic (quarterly for constructionrelated projects, annually for equipment
only projects) update of the status of the
funded project until it is completed. The
monitoring period averages about 3
years, although some projects take up to
5 years to complete. The information
collected from these updates is vital to
program management staff to determine
whether projects are progressing
according to the established timeframes,
meeting deadlines established in the
Notice of Grant Award (NGA), and
drawing down funds appropriately. The

change in the burden estimate due to
close out of old projects, and the
addition of new projects for FY 2010.

through student focus groups and
teacher interviews. Students will
complete a participant profile form to
capture basic demographic information.
The specific aim of this study is to
assess whether the Safe Dates
adolescent dating violence prevention
program needs modification/adaptation
for urban, high-risk adolescents.
Approximately 40 students at one
school will participate in focus groups.
Two focus groups will consist of 8–10
boys, and two focus groups will include
8–10 girls. Informed written consent
from parents for each student’s
participation and informed written
assent from tenth graders for their own
participation will be obtained. Twenty
teachers will participate in interviews.
Students and teachers will be asked
about their experiences with the Safe
Dates program and ideas they may have
about adapting the program for urban
schools.
Data collection will occur in July
2010. It is anticipated that study results
will be used to determine whether the
Safe Dates program should be modified
for an urban, high-risk population.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time. The total estimated
annual burden hours are 849.
