infrastructure to implement and sustain
science-based, culturally appropriate
High Impact HIV Prevention (HIP)
interventions and public health
strategies.
Applicants selected for funding must
work with the CDC-funded CBA
providers to develop and implement a
Capacity Building Assistance Strategic
Plan (CBASP). The information
collected via this process will be used
to construct a CBASP for each funded
organization in collaboration with
CDC’s Capacity Building Branch (CBB).
CBA Providers will provide technical
assistance and training to ensure that
the CBOs and Partnerships have the
skills and support they need to
successfully implement their CDCfunded HIV High Impact Prevention
program.
CBA providers will utilize the CBO
CBA Assessent Tool which offers a
mixed-method data collection approach
with close-ended, and open-ended
questions. CBOs will complete and
submit the completed web-based Tool,
which will be discussed, and needs
confirmed, during a follow-up phone
contact assessment. A follow-up site
visit may be recommended for CBOs
with dire needs (up to 20%), which will
be scheduled upon approval by the
Project Officer and Program Consultant.
Data from all completed Tools will be
analyzed and used to develop a CBA
Strategic Plan (CBASP) which will be
housed in the Capacity Assistance
Request Information System (managed
by the Capacity Building Branch), in the
Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention and
consulted by CBA Providers assigned to
respond to the prioritized CBOs’ CBA
needs.
By the end of the project, the
participating CBOs and Partnerships
will have tailored CBA strategic plans
that they can use to help sustain their
programs across and beyond the life of
their funding. Based on these plans, the
CBA providers in collaboration with
CDC will be able to better identify and
address those needs most reported by
CBOs. Finally, the Capacity Building
Branch will be able to refine its
approach to conceptualizing and
providing CBA on a national level in the
most cost-effective manner possible.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time. The total annual burden
hours are 240.

Proposed Project
National Health Interview Survey
(NHIS) (OMB No. 0920–0214, expires
12/31/2017)—Revision—National
Center for Health Statistics (NCHS),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Section 306 of the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C.), as
amended, authorizes that the Secretary
of Health and Human Services (DHHS),
acting through NCHS, shall collect
statistics on the extent and nature of
illness and disability of the population
of the United States.
The annual National Health Interview
Survey is a major source of general
statistics on the health of the U.S.
mental health. Questions from 2016 on
balance and Hepatitis B and C screening
have been removed. In addition to these
core and supplemental modules, a
subsample of NHIS respondents and/or
members of commercial survey panels
may be identified to participate in short,
web-based methodological and
cognitive testing activities that will
inform the upcoming 2018 NHIS
questionnaire redesign. The aims of
these standalone assessments include
pilot testing new and/or updated
questionnaire items, evaluating the
impact of different categorical response
option formats on answer choices, and
measuring respondent comprehension
of health care-related terms and
concepts.
In accordance with the 1995 initiative
to increase the integration of surveys
within the DHHS, respondents to the
NHIS serve as the sampling frame for
the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey
conducted by the Agency for Healthcare
Research and Quality. The NHIS has
long been used by government,
academic, and private researchers to
evaluate both general health and
specific issues, such as smoking,
diabetes, health care coverage, and
access to health care. It is a leading
source of data for the Congressionallymandated ‘‘Health US’’ and related
publications, as well as the single most
important source of statistics to track
progress toward the National Health
Promotion and Disease Prevention
Objectives, ‘‘Healthy People 2020.’’
There is no cost to the respondents
other than their time. The estimated
annualized burden hours for this data
collection are 502 hours.
population and has been in the field
continuously since 1957. Clearance is
sought for three years, to collect data for
2017–2019.
This voluntary and confidential
household-based survey collects
demographic and health-related
information from a nationallyrepresentative sample of
noninstitutionalized, civilian persons
and households throughout the country.
Personal identification information is
requested from survey respondents to
facilitate linkage of survey data with
health-related administrative and other
records. In 2017 the NHIS will collect
information from approximately 45,000
households, which contain about
100,000 individuals. Information is
collected using computer assisted
personal interviews (CAPI).
A core set of data is collected each
year that remains largely unchanged,
whereas sponsored supplements vary
from year to year. The core set includes
socio-demographic characteristics,
health status, health care services, and
health behaviors. For 2017,
supplemental questions will be cycled
in pertaining to alternative and
integrative medicine, cognitive
disability, and receipt of culturally and
linguistically appropriate health care
services, epilepsy, and heart disease and
stroke. Supplemental topics that
continue or are enhanced from 2016
pertain to the Affordable Care Act,
chronic pain, Crohn’s disease and
colitis, diabetes, disability and
functioning, family food security, ABCS
of heart disease and stroke prevention,
immunizations, smokeless tobacco and
e-cigarettes, vision, and children’s

Proposed Project
Monitoring and Reporting System for
the Prescription Drug Overdose
Prevention for States Cooperative
agreement—New—National Center for
Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Drug overdose is the leading cause of
injury death in the United States.
Opioid-prescribing behaviors are
associated with an increased risk for
morbidity and mortality. While opioid
pain relievers can play an important
role in the management of some types
of pain, the overprescribing of these
powerful drugs has fueled a national
epidemic of prescription drug abuse and
overdose. To reverse this complex
epidemic and prevent future overdose,
abuse, and misuse, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
provides support to states to improve
surveillance. Support and guidance for
these programs have been provided
through cooperative agreement funding
and technical assistance administered
by CDC’s National Center for Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC).
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) seeks new OMB
approval to collect information from
awardees funded under the Prescription
Drug Overdose Prevention for States
(CDC–RFA–CE15–1501) cooperative
agreement, for program monitoring and
improvement among funded state health
departments. Awardees will report
progress and activity information to
CDC on an annual schedule using an
Excel-based fillable electronic
templates, pre-populated to the extent
possible by CDC staff. In Year 1, each
awardee will have additional burden
related to initial collection of the
reporting tools. After completing the
initial population of the tools, pertinent
information only needs to be updated
for each annual report. The same
instruments will be used for all
information collection and reporting.
CDC will use the information
collected to monitor each awardee’s
progress and to identify facilitators and
challenges to program implementation
and achievement of outcomes.
Monitoring allows CDC to determine
whether an awardee is meeting
performance and budget goals and to
make adjustments in the type and level
of technical assistance provided to
them, as needed, to support attainment
of their performance measures.
The total estimated annualized
burden for this collection is 812 hours.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. Participation in the information
collection is required as a condition of
funding. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.
