Proposed Project

    Information Collection for Tuberculosis Data from Panel 
Physicians--Existing Collection in Use Without an OMB Control Number--
National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC), National 
Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Division 
of Global Migration and Quarantine (DGMQ), Immigrant, Refugee, and 
Migrant Health Branch (IRMH), requests approval for a new information 
collection to request quarterly reports on certain tuberculosis data 
from U.S. panel physicians.
    The respondents are panel physicians. More than 760 panel 
physicians perform overseas pre-departure medical examinations in 
accordance with requirements, referred to as technical instructions, 
provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Division 
of Global Migration and Quarantine, Quality Assessment Program (QAP). 
The role of QAP is to assist and guide panel physicians in the 
implementation of the Technical Instructions; evaluate the quality of 
the overseas medical examination for U.S.-bound immigrants and 
refugees; assess potential panel physician sites; and provide 
recommendations to the U.S. Department of State in matters of immigrant 
medical screening.
    To achieve DGMQ's mission, the Immigrant, Refugee and Migrant 
Health branch (IRMH) works with domestic and international programs to 
improve the health of U.S.-bound immigrants and refugees to protect the 
U.S. public by preventing the importation of infectious disease. These 
goals are accomplished through IRMH's oversight of medical exams 
required for all U.S.-bound immigrants and refugees who seek permanent 
residence in the U.S. IRMH is responsible for assisting and training 
the international panel physicians with the implementation of medical 
exam Technical Instructions (TI). Technical Instructions are detailed 
requirements and national policies regarding the medical screening and 
treatment of all U.S.-bound immigrants and refugees.
    Screening for tuberculosis (TB) is a particularly important 
component of the immigration medical exam and allows panel physicians 
to diagnose active TB disease prior to arrival in the United States. As

physicians perform chest x-rays and laboratory tests that aid in the

thereby preventing CDC from evaluating TB trends in globally mobile 
populations and monitoring program effectiveness.

requests OMB approval now to comply with PRA requirements for data 
collection. CDC is requesting this data to be sent by panel physicians 
once per year. The consequences of reducing this frequency would be the
