its continuing efforts to reduce public
burden and maximize the utility of
government information, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to take this opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing information collections, as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995. This notice invites
comment on a proposed information
collection project entitled ‘‘Prevalence
Survey of Healthcare-Associated
Infections (HAIs) and Antimicrobial Use
in U.S. Nursing Homes.’’ This
information collection request will
generate data to describe the
epidemiology and estimate the burden
of HAIs and antimicrobial use in US
nursing homes using the prevalence
survey method. Results will be used to
inform state prevention efforts and
federal priority setting for public health
initiatives to improve HAI prevention
and antimicrobial use.
DATES: Written comments must be
received on or before May 10, 2016.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments,

Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 48 / Friday, March 11, 2016 / Notices
requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology; and (e) estimates of capital
or start-up costs and costs of operation,
maintenance, and purchase of services
to provide information. Burden means
the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to
generate, maintain, retain, disclose or
provide information to or for a Federal
agency. This includes the time needed
to review instructions; to develop,
acquire, install and utilize technology
and systems for the purpose of
collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
of HAIs; assessing the nature and extent
of antimicrobial use in U.S. healthcare
facilities; and assessing the nature and
extent of antimicrobial use.
Prevalence surveys, in which data are
collected in healthcare facilities during
a short, specified time period represent
an efficient and cost-effective alternative
to prospective studies of HAI and
antimicrobial use incidence. Given the
absence of existing HAI and
antimicrobial use data collection
mechanisms for nursing homes,
prevalence surveys represent a robust
method for obtaining the surveillance
data required to identify HAIs and
antibiotic use practices that should be
targeted for more intensive surveillance
and to guide and evaluate prevention
efforts.
The methods for the data collection
are based on those used in CDC hospital
prevalence surveys and informed by a
CDC pilot survey conducted in nine
U.S. nursing homes. The survey will be
performed by the CDC through the
Emerging Infections Program (EIP), a
collaboration with CDC and 10 state
health departments with experience in
HAI surveillance and data collection.
Respondents are nursing homes
certified by the Centers for Medicare &
Medicare Services in EIP states. Nursing
home participation is voluntary.
Nursing homes will be randomly
selected for participation, with a goal in
each EIP site of recruiting a total of 20
nursing homes.
There will be no anticipated costs to
respondents other than their time.
Information collection will last
approximately one year.

Prevalence Survey of HealthcareAssociated Infections and Antimicrobial
Use in U.S. Nursing Homes—New—
National Center for Emerging and
Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID),
Centers for Disease Control and

Background and Brief Description
Preventing healthcare-associated
infections (HAI) and encouraging
appropriate use of antimicrobials are
priorities of both the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services and the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC). The burden and
epidemiology of HAIs and antimicrobial
use in U.S. nursing homes is currently
unknown. Understanding the scope and
magnitude of all types of HAIs in
patient populations across the spectrum
of U.S. healthcare facilities is essential
to the development of effective
prevention and control strategies and
policies.
HAI prevalence and antimicrobial use
estimates can be obtained through
prevalence surveys in which data are
collected in healthcare facilities during
a short, specified time period. Essential
steps in reducing the occurrence of
HAIs and the prevalence of resistant
pathogens include estimating the
burden, types, and causative organisms
