Health and Human Services’ claims
collection regulations (45 CFR Part 30)
provides that the Secretary shall charge
an annual rate of interest, which is

of the Treasury after considering private
consumer rates of interest on the date

Human Services becomes entitled to
recovery. The rate cannot be lower than
the Department of Treasury’s current
value of funds rate or the applicable rate

Proposed Project
Focus Group Testing to Effectively
Plan and Tailor Cancer Prevention and
Control Communication Campaigns
(OMB No. 0920–0800, exp. 11/30/
2014)—Extension—National Center for
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The mission of the CDC’s Division of
Cancer Prevention and Control (DCPC)
is to reduce the burden of cancer in the
United States through cancer
prevention, reduction of risk, early
detection, better treatment, and
improved quality of life for cancer
survivors. Toward this end, the DCPC
supports the scientific development,
implementation, and evaluation of
various health communication
campaigns with an emphasis on specific
cancer burdens. This process requires
testing of messages, concepts, and
materials prior to their final
development and dissemination.
Communication campaigns vary
according to the type of cancer, the
qualitative dimensions of the message
described above, and the type of
respondents.
CDC is currently approved to collect
information needed to plan and tailor
cancer communication campaigns (OMB
No. 0920–0800, exp. 11/30/2014), and
seeks OMB approval to extend the
existing generic clearance. No changes
to the scope of the clearance or data
collection methodology are proposed.
There are small decreases in the
annualized estimates for the number of
respondents and burden hours.
Information will be collected
primarily through focus groups, and
will be used to assess numerous
qualitative dimensions of cancer
prevention and control messages,
including, but not limited to,
knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, behavioral
intentions, information needs and
sources, and compliance to
recommended screening intervals.
Insights gained from the focus groups
will assist in the development and/or
refinement of future campaign messages
and materials.
DCPC plans to conduct or sponsor up
to 80 focus groups per year over a threeyear period. An average of 10
respondents will participate in each
focus group discussion. Screening will
be conducted to recruit respondents for
specific target audiences, e.g., the
general public or health care providers.
The estimated burden per response for
screening is three minutes. Each focus
group discussion will be facilitated by a
written discussion guide, and will last
approximately two hours. CDC will
submit an information collection
request to OMB for approval of each
focus group activity.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. There are no changes to
information collection purpose or
methodology. There are minor
reductions in the annualized estimates
for the number of respondents and
corresponding burden hours.
Participation is voluntary and there
are no costs to respondents except their
time. The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 1,680.
