microbiological laboratory technologist
would work an average of 76.5 hours
annually (153 infants × 0.5 hours per
infant = 76.5 hours) to prepare and
analyze fecal samples taken from infants
in the controlled study. All estimates
are shown in table 2. Therefore, a total
of 156 additional annual burden hours
(3 + 38.25 + 38.25 + 76.5 = 156) are
estimated to account for the information
collection burden resulting from the
need to conduct a controlled study in
order to gather data to substantiate a
new structure/function claim, or a
structure/function claim that lacks
sufficient prior evidence, for a total of
166 total annual hours (156 + 10 = 166)
for the upkeep and generation of
information used to substantiate
structure/function claims. Including the
one-time burden of 160 hours
annualized over 3 years (160/3 = 53.3),
the total annual record keeping burden
is 219.3 hours (166 + 53.3 = 219.3).
There are no estimated capital costs or
operating and maintenance costs
associated with this information
collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title:
Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood
Home Visiting Program Cost Reporting
Pilot Study
OMB No. 0906–xxxx—NEW
Abstract: The Maternal, Infant, and
Early Childhood Home Visiting Program
(Federal Home Visiting Program),
administered by HRSA in partnership
with the Administration for Children
and Families, supports voluntary,
evidence-based home visiting services
during pregnancy and to parents with
young children up to kindergarten
entry. States, Tribal entities, and certain
nonprofit organizations are eligible to
receive funding from the Federal Home
Visiting Program and have the flexibility
to tailor the program to serve the
specific needs of their communities.
Funding recipients may subaward grant
funds to organizations, otherwise
known as Local Implementing Agencies
(LIAs), in order to provide services to
eligible families in at-risk communities.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: This information collection
is requested to conduct a pilot study to
test the reliability of a standardized cost
reporting tool for the provision of
evidence-based home visiting services.
The information collected will be used
to: Test the reliability and feasibility of
implementing a proposed set of
standardized cost metrics and
organizational characteristics across
various contexts; estimate preliminary
total costs for implementing evidencebased home visiting services, including
ranges, and; further refine cost metrics
and the cost reporting tool based on
feedback received through the pilot
study. Proposed standard cost metrics
have been developed based on a review
of the existing literature for measures of
home visiting costs, as well as from
ongoing discussions with developers of
evidence-based home visiting models.
HRSA received comments from one
respondent during the public comment
period which estimated the hourly
burden per response to be 16 hours. The
estimated burden has been revised to
reflect this feedback. Further, the
commenter expressed an interest in
using the tool to analyze the cost-benefit
and overall value of home visiting
programs. While the cost reporting tool
may be useful in collecting information
that will lead to additional cost-benefit
analyses, those analyses are outside the
scope of the current project. A full
response to the comments can be
accessed in Part A of the Supporting
Statement.
Likely Respondents: Organizations,
including LIAs providing evidencebased home visiting services through
the Federal Home Visiting Program.
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. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.
