prepared to meet these challenges, CDC
plays a key role in developing,
implementing, and managing a number
of fellowship programs. A fellowship is
defined as a training or work experience
lasting at least 1 month and consisting
of primarily experiential (i.e., on-thejob) learning, in which the trainee has
a designated mentor or supervisor. CDC
fellowships are intended to develop
public health professionals, enhance the
public health workforce, and strengthen
collaborations with partners in public
health and healthcare organizations,
academia, and other stakeholders in
governmental and non-governmental
organizations. Assessing fellowship
activities is essential to ensure that the
public health workforce is equipped to
promote and protect the public’s health.
• determine to what extent fellowship
activities and services are achieving
established goals.
Collection and use of information
about CDC fellowship activities will
help ensure effective, efficient, and
satisfying experiences among fellowship
program participants and stakeholders.
CDC estimates that annually, a given
fellowship program will conduct one
query each with one of the three
respondent groups: Fellowship
applicants or fellows; mentors,
supervisors, or employers; and alumni.
The total annualized burden hours of
2,957 was determined as depicted in the
following table.
CDC requests a three-year approval of
a generic clearance to collect data about
its fellowship programs, as they relate to
public health workforce development.
Data collections will allow for ongoing,
collaborative, and actionable
communications between CDC
fellowship programs and stakeholders
(e.g., fellows, supervisors/mentors,
alumni). These collections might
include short surveys, interviews, and
focus groups. Intended use of the
resulting information is to:
• Inform planning, implementation,
and continuous quality improvement of
fellowship activities and services;
• improve efficiencies in the delivery
of fellowship activities and services;

(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each

or sponsor. The term ‘‘collection of
information’’ is defined in 44 U.S.C.
3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) and
includes agency requests or

requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)) requires federal agencies
to publish a 30-day notice in the
Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension or
reinstatement of an existing collection
of information, before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, CMS is
publishing this notice that summarizes
the following proposed collection(s) of
information for public comment:
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Consumer
Research Supporting Outreach for
Health Insurance Marketplace; Use: The
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services is requesting reapproval for
two surveys that aid in understanding
levels of awareness and customer
service needs associated with the Health
Insurance Marketplace established by
the Affordable Care Act. Because the
Marketplace will provide coverage to
the almost 50 million uninsured in the
United States through individual and
small employer programs, we have
developed one survey to be
administered to individual consumers
most likely to use the Marketplace and
another to be administered to small
employers most likely to use the Small
Business Health Options portion of the
Marketplace. These brief surveys,
designed to be conducted quarterly, give
CMS the ability to obtain a rough
indication of the types of outreach and
marketing that will be needed to
enhance awareness of and knowledge
about the Marketplace for individual
and business customers. CMS’ biggest
customer service need is likely to be
providing sufficient education so
consumers: (a) Can take advantage of the
Marketplace and (b) know how to access
CMS’ customer service channels. The
surveys will provide information on
media use, concept awareness, and
conceptual or content areas where
education for customer service delivery
can be improved. Awareness and
knowledge gaps are likely to change
over time based not only on
effectiveness of CMS’ marketing efforts,
but also of those of state, local, private
sector, and nongovernmental
organizations. Form Number: CMS–
10458 (OMB control number: 0938–
