Download as PDF 13806 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 50 / Tuesday, March 15, 2016 / Notices with the addition of a Capacity Building domain, specific to DGIS. There are also program-specific measures included for a subset of discretionary grant programs including the Healthy Start program, Emergency Medical Services for Children program, and programs within the Division of MCH Workforce Development. Grant programs will be assigned measures in the domains that are appropriate for their activities. Comments were received related to structure, content, and volume of performance measures during the 60day public comment period and those comments were taken into consideration in the final revision of the DGIS performance measures and overall DGIS data collection. MCHB’s purpose in revising the performance measures is to better measure progress toward program goals. These program goals include alignment with and support of the Title V Block Grant, specifically population domains and National Performance Measures, where reasonable. Further, the revised measures will more accurately capture the scope of services provided through this grant funding. The overall number of performance measures has been reduced from prior DGIS data collection, and the average number of performance measures each grantee will be required to report is reduced as well. Further, the structure of the data collection has been revised to better measure the various models of programs and the services each funded program provides. This revision will allow a more accurate and detailed picture of the full scope of services provided through grant programs administered by MCHB. The data collected are also used by MCHB project officers to monitor and assess grantee performance as well as assist in monitoring and evaluating MCHB’s programs. Likely Respondents: Discretionary grant programs administered by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau. Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide the information requested. 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 and providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
