Proposed Project Frame Development for the Residential Care Component of the National Study of Long-Term Care Providers (OMB No. 0920–0912, expired 1/31/2013)—Reinstatement no change— National Center for Health Statistics VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:38 Jun 06, 2013 Jkt 229001 (NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description NCHS seeks approval to collect data needed to develop up-to-date sampling frames of residential care facilities. Three year clearance is requested. Section 306 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 242k), as amended, authorizes that the Secretary of Health and Human Services (DHHS), acting through NCHS, ‘‘shall collect statistics on health resources. . . [and] utilization of health care, including extended care facilities, and other institutions.’’ The sampling frames will be used to draw nationally representative samples for two waves of the National Study of Long-Term Care Providers (NSLTCP). The frame-related data will be collected from representatives in state regulatory agencies in the 50 states and the District of Columbia primarily via telephone calls, emails, and in a few cases, via formal written requests. The frame information was first collected in 2012 (OMB No. 0920–0912, expired 1/31/ 2013). The data to be collected from these state officials include (1) confirming that we have identified the appropriate licensure categories of residential care facilities within each state that meet the NSLTCP definition and (2) for each relevant licensure category, requesting an electronic file of the licensed residential care facilities for which the agency is responsible if such files with the needed variables are not downloadable from the state’s Web site.

Facilities licensed to serve the mentally ill or the intellectually disabled/ developmentally disabled populations exclusively are excluded. Nursing homes and skilled nursing facilities are also excluded, unless they have a unit or wing meeting the above definition and residents can be separately enumerated. The electronic files we seek to obtain from the states should include the name, address, phone number, and Web site (if available) of the residential care facility; name, phone number, and email address (if available) of facility director; licensure category; chain affiliation; ownership type; and bed size. Data on individual facilities are confidential and a public-use file will not be produced.

Proposed Project

    Frame Development for the Residential Care Component of the 
National Study of Long-Term Care Providers (OMB No. 0920-0912, expired 
1/31/2013)--Reinstatement no change--National Center for Health 
Statistics (NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    NCHS seeks approval to collect data needed to develop up-to-date 
sampling frames of residential care facilities. Three year clearance is 
requested. Section 306 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 
U.S.C. 242k), as amended, authorizes that the Secretary of Health and 
Human Services (DHHS), acting through NCHS, ``shall collect statistics 
on health resources. . . [and] utilization of health care, including 
extended care facilities, and other institutions.''
    The sampling frames will be used to draw nationally representative 
samples for two waves of the National Study of Long-Term Care Providers 
(NSLTCP). The frame-related data will be collected from representatives 
in state regulatory agencies in the 50 states and the District of 
Columbia primarily via telephone calls, emails, and in a few cases, via 
formal written requests. The frame information was first collected in 
2012 (OMB No. 0920-0912, expired 1/31/2013). The data to be collected 
from these state officials include (1) confirming that we have 
identified the appropriate licensure categories of residential care 
facilities within each state that meet the NSLTCP definition and (2) 
for each relevant licensure category, requesting an electronic file of 
the licensed residential care facilities for which the agency is 
responsible if such files with the needed variables are not 
downloadable from the state's Web site.
    The NSLTCP study definition of a residential care facility is one 
that is licensed, registered, listed, certified, or otherwise regulated 
by the state to provide room and board with at least two meals a day, 
provide around-the-clock on-site supervision, and help with activities 
of daily living (e.g., bathing, eating, or dressing) or health related 
services, such as medication supervision; serves primarily an adult 
population; and has at least four licensed, certified, or regulated 
beds. Facilities licensed to serve the mentally ill or the 
intellectually disabled/developmentally disabled populations 
exclusively are excluded. Nursing homes and skilled nursing facilities 
are also excluded, unless they have a unit or wing meeting the above 
definition and residents can be separately enumerated.
    The electronic files we seek to obtain from the states should 
include the name, address, phone number, and Web site (if available) of 
the residential care facility; name, phone number, and email address 
(if available) of facility director; licensure category; chain 
affiliation; ownership type; and bed size. Data on individual 
facilities are confidential and a public-use file will not be produced.
    Expected users of the findings from the frame data include, but are 
not limited to CDC's NCHS and its contractors; other Department of 
Health and Human Services (DHHS) agencies, such as the Office of the 
Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation and the Agency for 
Healthcare Research and Quality; associations, such as

Leading Age (formerly the American Association of Homes and Services 
for the Aging), National Center for Assisted Living, American Seniors 
Housing Association, and Assisted Living Federation of America; 
universities; foundations; and other private sector organizations.
    Burden is estimated at approximately 2.5 hours per state each time 
the frame will be developed, including time to verify contact 
information, to respond to a semi-structured telephone protocol, and to 
develop the facility listing in an electronic format. Three year 
clearance is requested to cover two collections of frame information. 
The burden for the two collections is shown in Table 1 below. There is 
no cost to respondents other than their time to participate. The total 
estimate of annualized burden is 88 hours based on two data collections 
during the three year clearance period.
