access this information via the CDC
EHDI Web site (www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/
hearingloss/ehdi-data.html).
Given the lack of a standardized and
readily accessible source of data, the
CDC EHDI program developed a survey
to be used annually that utilizes
uniform definitions to collect aggregate,
standardized EHDI data from states and
territories. The request to complete this
survey is planned to be disseminated to
respondents via an email, which will
include a summary of the request and
other relevant information. Minor
changes to this survey, based on
respondent feedback, are planned in
order to make the survey easier to
complete and further improve data
quality. These changes include splitting
the previously combined question about
the number of infants that were nonresidents or moved out jurisdiction into
two separate questions and adding new
questions. These include questions
about how many infants were in a
neonatal intensive care unit for more
than 5 days, transferred without any
documentation of a hearing screening,
experience with the survey since the
original Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) approval.
It is expected that 55 of the 59
potential respondents will complete the
survey and therefore incur an additional
burden of up to 4 hours per respondent.
However, based on feedback from
consulted experts about the length of
time required to complete the original
information collection it is anticipated
that it will only take some respondents
a few minutes to complete the revised
data request. This is because
jurisdictions often have already
gathered and compiled the requested
data for their own internal uses.
Nevertheless, the more conservative
time estimate of 4 hours per response
from each of the 55 anticipated
participants is shown in the table below.
The estimated annualized burden is 230
hours. This estimate is identical to the
time estimate for the reinstated OMB
approved estimate from 2010; the only
change is the estimated number of
respondents. There are no costs to the
respondents other than their time.
unable to be screened or receive
diagnostic testing due to a medical
reason, number of cases where a
primary care physician did not refer an
infant for diagnostic testing, and cases
of permanent hearing loss among nonresident infants. The table for reporting
type and severity of hearing loss data
has also been updated so this data can
be reported using either the
classification system from the American
Speech and Hearing Association or the
current system from the Directors of
Speech and Language Programs in State
Health and Welfare Agencies.
A total of 59 respondents will be
asked to complete the updated data
request each year during the 3-year
requested data collection approval
timeframe. Based on findings from the
previous information collection, it is
estimated that the burden for
individuals to read through the survey
and decide whether or not to complete
it is 10 minutes per person. The 10
minute calculation was based on
feedback received in pre-tests with 5
individuals and confirmed by the
