Frequency of Response: On occasion,

Obligation to Respond: Required to

authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C.s 151—154,

Total Annual Burden: 334,000 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no assurance of confidentiality
provided to respondents concerning this
information collection. If the
Commission requests applicants to
submit information that the respondents
believe is confidential, respondents may
request confidential treatment of their
information under 47 CFR 0.459 of the
Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: FCC Forms 470 and
471 collect the information the
Commission and the Universal Service
Administrative Company (USAC) need
to administer the schools and libraries
universal service mechanism
(informally known as the E-rate
program), determine if entities are
eligible for funding pursuant to the
schools and libraries support
mechanism, determine the amount of
support entities seeking funding are
eligible to receive, determine if entities
are complying with the Commission’s
rules, and prevent waste, fraud, and
abuse. The forms collect specific
information to establish that
economically disadvantaged schools
and rural schools receive a greater share
of E-rate program funding based on the
percentage of students eligible in that
school district for the national school
lunch program (NSLP) (or other
acceptable indicators of economic
disadvantage determined by the
Commission). The student poverty level
needed to determine discounts for

libraries are based on the NSLP
information for the school district
nearby. In the E-rate Modernization
Order, among other things, the
Commission took steps to streamline the
application process, provide exemptions
from competitive bidding, implement a
‘‘district-wide’’ discount calculation
mechanism, establish budgets for
internal broadband connectivity, and
extend the document retention period to
ten years. FCC Forms 470 and 471
execute these changes for the E-rate
application process and enable the
Commission to collect data to facilitate
measurement of progress towards the
adopted performance goals established
in the E-rate Modernization Order.
In addition, this collection is
necessary to allow the Commission to
evaluate the extent to which the E-rate
program is meeting the statutory
objectives specified in section 254(h) of
the 1996 Act.

State Health Department Access to
Electronic Health Record Data from
Healthcare Facilities during a
Healthcare-Associated Infection
Outbreak: A Retrospective
Assessment—New—National Center for
Emerging and Zoonotic Infections
Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Two years ago, contaminated steroid
injections caused the largest fungal
meningitis outbreak in the United
States, affecting 20 states and resulting
in 751 infections and 64 deaths. The
subsequent healthcare-associated
infection (HAI) outbreak response
required significant collaboration
between healthcare providers and
facilities and public health departments
(HDs). Following the outbreak response,
HDs reported that various challenges
with access to patient health
information in electronic health records
(EHRs) hindered the efficient and rapid
identification of potential fungal
meningitis cases in healthcare facilities.
The fungal meningitis outbreak
experience highlights the need to better
understand the landscape of granting
and using access to EHRs for outbreak
investigations.
The Division of Healthcare Quality
Promotion (a component of NCEZID),
the Office for State, Tribal, Local and
Territorial Support, and the Office of
Public Health Scientific Services at the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) are partnering with
Association of State and Territorial
Health Officials and The Keystone
Center to evaluate the challenges
surrounding HDs access to EHRs in
healthcare facilities’ during an HAI
outbreak investigation. The evaluation
seeks to compile information across
states from experts in the public and
private sector to assess experiences,
identify issues, and seek
recommendations for improving HDs
access to EHRs during future outbreaks.
In addition to a study report, the
insights from healthcare facility staff
will be used to build a toolkit to help
state HDs understand the perspectives
and needs of the healthcare facilities
related to EHR access. The toolkit will
provide perceived barriers,
recommendations to overcome those
barriers, best practices that support EHR
access, and practical tools such as
templates, memorandums of
understanding (MOUs), and policies.
The toolkit will be distributed to HDs,
healthcare facilities, and other
stakeholders to support awareness and
