for the proper performance of the functions of the agency; (b) the 
accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed 
collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility,

Proposed Project: Voluntary Partner Surveys To Implement Executive 
Order 12862 in the Health Resources and Services Administration--(OMB 
No. 0915-0212)--[Revision]

    In response to Executive Order 12862, the Health Resources and 
Services Administration (HRSA) is proposing to conduct voluntary 
customer surveys of its partners to assess strengths and weaknesses in 
program services and processes. HRSA partners are typically State or 
local governments, health care facilities, health care consortia, 
health care providers, and researchers. HRSA is requesting a generic 
approval from OMB to conduct the partner surveys.

[[Page 15112]]

    Partner surveys to be conducted by HRSA might include, for example, 
mail or telephone surveys of grantees to determine satisfaction with 
grant processes or technical assistance provided by a contractor, or 
in-class evaluation forms completed by providers who receive training 
from HRSA grantees, to measure satisfaction with the training 
experience. Results of these surveys will be used to plan and redirect 
resources and efforts as needed to improve services and processes. 
Focus groups may also be used to gain partner input into the design of 
mail and telephone surveys. Focus groups, in-class evaluation forms, 
mail surveys, and telephone surveys are expected to be the preferred 
data collection methods.
    A generic approval will permit HRSA to conduct a limited number of 
partner surveys without a full-scale OMB review of each survey. If 
generic approval is granted, information on each individual partner 
survey will not be published in the Federal Register.
    The annual estimate of burden is as follows:

                                     Number of     Responses per       Total         Hours per     Total burden
