Information Collection Request Title:
The Hospital Preparedness Program
Abstract: The Science Healthcare
Preparedness Evaluation and Research
(SHARPER), part of the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS),
Assistant Secretary for Preparedness
and Response (ASPR), Office of
Emergency Management (OEM),
ADDRESSES:
Division of National Healthcare
Preparedness Programs (NHPP), in
conjunction with the Hospital
Preparedness Program (HPP) is seeking
an extension on a currently approved
clearance by the Office of Management
of Budget (OMB) for a Generic Data
Collection Form to serve as the
cornerstone of its effort to assess
awardee program under the HPP
Cooperative Agreement (CA) Program.
Program data are gathered from
awardees as part of their Ad-hoc and
End-of-Year Progress Reports and other
similar information collections (ICs)
which have the same general purpose,
account for awardee spending and
program on all activities conducted in
pursuit of achieving the HPP Grant
goals. This data collection effort is
crucial to HPP’s decision-making
process regarding the continued
existence, design and funding levels of
this program. Results from these data
analyses enable HPP to monitor
healthcare emergency preparedness and
progress towards national preparedness
goals. HPP supports priorities outlined
by the National Preparedness Goal (the
Goal) established by the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) in 2005. The
Goal guides entities at all levels of
government in the development and
maintenance of capabilities to prevent,
protect against, respond to and recover
from major events. Additionally, the
Goal will assist entities at all levels of
government in the development and
maintenance of the capabilities to
identify, prioritize and protect critical
infrastructure.

Background and Brief Description
On October 30, 2000, the Energy
Employees Occupational Illness
Compensation Program Act of 2000 (42
U.S.C. 7384–7385) was enacted. This
Act established a federal compensation
program for employees of the
Department of Energy (DOE) and certain
of its contractors, subcontractors and
vendors, who have suffered cancers and
other designated illnesses as a result of
PO 00000
Frm 00022
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
exposures sustained in the production
and testing of nuclear weapons.
Executive Order 13179, issued on
December 7, 2000, delegated authorities
assigned to ‘‘the President’’ under the
Act to the Departments of Labor, Health
and Human Services, Energy and
Justice. The Department of Health and
Human Services (DHHS) was delegated
the responsibility of establishing
methods for estimating radiation doses
received by eligible claimants with
cancer applying for compensation.
NIOSH is applying the following
methods to estimate the radiation doses
of individuals applying for
compensation.
In performance of its dose
reconstruction responsibilities, under
the Act, NIOSH is providing voluntary
interview opportunities to claimants (or
their survivors) individually and
providing them with the opportunity to
assist NIOSH in documenting the work
history of the employee by
characterizing the actual work tasks
performed. In addition, NIOSH and the
claimant may identify incidents that
may have resulted in undocumented
radiation exposures, characterizing
radiological protection and monitoring
practices, and identify co-workers and
other witnesses as may be necessary to
confirm undocumented information. In
this process, NIOSH uses a computer
assisted telephone interview (CATI)
system, which allows interviews to be
conducted more efficiently and quickly
as opposed to a paper-based interview
instrument. Both interviews are
voluntary and failure to participate in
either or both interviews will not have
a negative effect on the claim, although
voluntary participation may assist the
claimant by adding important
information that may not be otherwise
available. NIOSH is requesting a threeyear approval for these data collection
activities.
