Section
1 The
asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
figures in this column are averages based on a range. Small entities may require fewer hours to conduct certain compliance activities,
particularly with respect to Security Rule requirements, while large entities may spend more hours than those provided here.
2 This estimate includes 700,000 estimated covered entities and 1 million estimated business associates. The Omnibus HIPAA Final Rule burden analysis estimated that there were 1–2 million business associates. However, because many business associates have business associate
relationships with multiple covered entities, we believe the lower end of this range is more accurate.
3 This element includes the burden of updating documentation in accordance with the evaluation required by 45 CFR 164.306. Therefore, we
do not separately address the burden associated with the evaluation.
4 Total number of breach incidents in 2015.
5 Average number of individuals affected per breach incident in 2015.
6 This number includes all 267 large breaches and all 2,479 breaches affecting 10–499 individuals. As we stated in the preamble to the Omnibus HIPAA Final Rule, although some breaches involving fewer than 10 individuals may require substitute notice, we believe the costs of providing such notice through alternative written means or by telephone is negligible.
7 We again assume that call center staff will spend 5 minutes per call, but now with an average of 4,124 individuals affected by breaches requiring substitute notice. Multiplying these figures results in 5.75 hours per breach. This estimate is much lower than the 46.26 hours per breach
requiring substitute notice in our previous estimate, which we believe was the result of an arithmetic error. The estimate of 4,124 individuals
being affected by breaches requiring substitute notice results from the assumption that the number of callers to the toll-free number will equal
10% of the sum of all individuals affected by large breaches (113,250,136) and 5% of individuals affected by small breaches (.05 × 285,413 =
14,270). We calculate .10 * (113,250,136 + 14,270) = 11,326,440.
8 As noted in the previous footnote, this number equals 10% of the sum of all individuals affected by large breaches and 5% of individuals affected by small breaches.
9 This number includes 7.5 minutes for each individual who calls: an average of 2.5 minutes to wait on the line/decide to call back and 5 minutes for the call itself.
10 The total number of breaches affecting 500 or more individuals in 2015.
11 The total number of breaches affecting fewer than 500 individuals in 2015.
12 The number of entities who use and disclose protected health information for research purposes.
13 As in our previous submission, we assume that half of the approximately 200,000,000 individuals insured by covered health plans will receive the plan’s NPP by paper mail, and half will receive the NPP by electronic mail.
14 We estimate that each year covered health care providers will have first-time visits with 613 million individuals, to whom the providers must
give a NPP.
15 We assume covered entities address 20,000 requests for confidential communications or restrictions on disclosures per year.
16 We estimate that covered entities annually fulfill 200,000 requests from individuals for access to their protected health information.
17 We estimate that covered entities annually fulfill 5,000 requests from individuals for an accounting of disclosures of their protected health
information.
OS specifically requests comments on
(1) the necessity and utility of the
proposed information collection for the
proper performance of the agency’s
functions, (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden, (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected, and (4) the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology to minimize the information
collection burden.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each
decade since 1979, HHS has published
a comprehensive set of national public
health objectives. Known as Healthy
People, this initiative has been
grounded in the notion that setting
science-based, measurable objectives
and monitoring progress can motivate
action. As HHS prepares to produce
objectives for the next decade, it seeks
the assistance of a federal advisory
committee to help ensure that those
objectives are salient and science-based.
The Committee will provide relevant
and objective advice through an open
process that fosters the cooperation and
commitment from both the public and
private sectors.
The Committee will be established to
provide independent advice based on
current scientific evidence for use by
the HHS Secretary (the Secretary) or her
designee in the development of Healthy
People 2030. The Committee will advise
the Secretary on HHS’ approach for
Healthy People 2030. Framed around
health determinants and risk factors,
this approach will generate a focused set
of objectives that address high-impact
public health challenges. The
Committee will perform the single,
time-limited task of providing advice
regarding creating Healthy People 2030.
The Committee will advise the Secretary
on the Healthy People 2030 mission
statement, vision statement, framework,
and organizational structure. The
Committee will provide advice on HHS’
selection criteria for identifying a
focused set of measurable, nationally
representative objectives. The selection
criteria will assist the Secretary in
defining the objectives that represent
the most critical public health issues
that are high-impact priorities
supported by current, national data sets.
The Committee will meet, at a
minimum, one time per year. It is
expected to begin meeting in fall of 2016
and to meet approximately four times
per year during the course of its
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 238001
operation. Pursuant to FACA, meetings
will be open to the public except as
determined otherwise by the Secretary
or her designee in keeping with all
applicable laws.
Individuals selected for appointment
to the Committee will be invited to
serve as members until the charter
expires or the Committee accomplishes
its mission. Unless renewed, the charter
will expire two years from the date it is
established. The Committee will operate
until its report is delivered to the
Secretary or the charter expires,
whichever comes first.
Prospective members of the
Committee should be nationally known
experts in the fields of disease
prevention and health promotion. The
membership may include former
Assistant Secretaries for Health.
Expertise is sought in specific specialty
areas such as biostatistics, business,
epidemiology, health communications,
health economics, health information
technology, health policy, health
sciences, health systems, international
health, outcomes research, public health
law, social determinants of health,
special populations, and state and local
public health and from a variety of
public, private, philanthropic, and
academic settings. Individuals will be
selected to serve as Committee members
based upon their qualifications, level of
expertise and knowledge, and ability to
contribute to the work to be performed
by the Committee. Individuals will not
be appointed to serve as members of the
Committee to represent the viewpoints
of any specific group. Rather members
will be selected to represent balanced
viewpoints of the current scientific
evidence sought by the Secretary to
meet the Committee’s charge.
Nominations: HHS will consider
nominations, including selfnominations, for Committee
membership of individuals qualified to
carry out the above-mentioned duties.
The following information should be
included in the package of materials
submitted for each individual being
nominated for consideration: (1) The
name, address, daytime telephone
number, and email address of the
nominator (if applicable), and the
individual being nominated; (2) a letter
of nomination that clearly states the
name and affiliation of the nominee, the
basis for the nomination (i.e., specific
attributes which qualify the nominee for
service in this capacity), and a statement
from the nominee that the nominee is
willing to serve as a member of the
Committee; and (3) a current copy of the
nominee’s curriculum vitae (CV) no
more than 10 pages in length. Inclusion
of the following is requested in the CV:

information is accurate and complete.
All nominations must include the
required information. Incomplete
nominations will not be processed for
consideration. Federal employees
should not be nominated for
appointment to this Committee.
Equal opportunity practices regarding
membership appointments to the
Committee will be aligned with HHS
policies. When possible, every effort
will be made to ensure that the
Committee is a diverse group of
individuals with representation from
various academic institutions, disability
status, ethnic identities, genders,
geographic areas, and racial groups.
All appointed members of the
Committee will serve as special
government employees. As such, they
are subject to the ethical standards of
conduct for federal employees. Upon
entering the position and annually
throughout the term of appointment,
members of the Committee will be
required to complete and submit a
report of their financial holdings,
consultancies, and research grants and/
or contracts. The purpose of this report
is to determine if the individual has any

conflict with performance of his or her
official duties as a member of the
Committee. Committee members are
entitled to receive reimbursement for
travel and per diem expenses incurred
for conducting official business in
accordance with federal standard travel
regulations. Committee members are not
entitled to receive any other
compensation for the services they
perform.
