Program Deeming Applications for Free
Clinics, OMB No. 0915–0293—
Extension.
Abstract: Section 224(o) of the Public
Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C.
233(o)), as amended, authorizes the
‘‘deeming’’ of certain individuals as
PHS employees for the purposes of
receiving Federal Tort Claims Act
(FTCA) coverage. Section 224(o) relates
to employees, officers, and contractors
at qualifying free clinics. The Free
Clinics FTCA Program is administered
by HRSA’s Bureau of Primary Health
Care (BPHC). Sponsoring free clinics are
required by law to submit deeming
applications in the specified form and
manner on behalf of named individuals
for review and approval, resulting in a
‘‘deeming determination’’ that includes
associated FTCA coverage for these
individuals.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: Deeming applications must
address certain specified criteria
required by law for deeming
determinations to be issued, and FTCA
application forms are critical to BPHC’s
deeming determination process. These
forms provide BPHC with the
information necessary to evaluate an
application and determine whether an
individual meets the requirements for
deemed PHS employee status for the
purposes of FTCA coverage. FTCA
application forms for free clinics do not
require any changes with this extension
other than to update the applicable
dates.
Likely Respondents: Respondents
include free clinics seeking deemed
PHS employee status on behalf of their
sponsored individuals for purposes of
FTCA coverage.
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 Information
Collection Request are summarized in
the table below.
