Proposed Project
[30Day–17–0739]
Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) has submitted the
following information collection request
to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. The notice for
the proposed information collection is
CDC Oral Health Management
Information System (OMB Control
Number 0920–0739, expiration date 5/
31/2017)—Reinstatement with Change.
Division of Oral Health (DOH), National
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention
and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The CDC works with state health
departments to improve the oral health
of the nation. Targeted efforts include
building and/or maintaining an effective
public health capacity for the
implementation, evaluation, and
dissemination of evidence-based
practices in oral health disease
prevention and advancement of oral
health. Through a cooperative
agreement program (Program
Announcement DP13–1307), CDC has
provided funding to 21 states over a 5year period. This cooperative agreement
went into effect in September 2013 and
builds upon previously funded
collaborations between CDC and statebased oral health programs.
Currently, CDC does not have
approval to collect annual progress and
activity reports from state-based oral
health programs using the Chronic
Disease Management Information
System (CDMIS). The information
collected in the Management
Information System (MIS) improves
CDC’s ability to disseminate information
about successful public health
approaches that are potentially
replicable and adaptable for use in other
states.
CDC requests a reinstatement with
change to continue collecting
information for two additional years.
The estimated burden decreased from
255 to 171 hours as programs no longer
have to repeat the initial entry of
administrative data after the first year.
The estimated burden for system
maintenance and annual reporting is
three hours for Basic-level awardees.
The estimated burden for system
maintenance and annual reporting is
nine hours for Enhanced-level
awardees. State awardees submit reports
to CDC annually; however, states may
enter updates in the MIS at any time.
CDC collects all information
electronically and uses this information
to monitor awardee activities and to
provide any needed technical assistance
or follow-up support.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
171.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology; and (e) estimates of capital
or start-up costs and costs of operation,
maintenance, and purchase of services
to provide information. Burden means
the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to
generate, maintain, retain, disclose or
provide information to or for a Federal
agency. 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.

Proposed Project
National Health Interview Survey
(NHIS) (OMB Control No. 0920–0124,
Exp. 12/31/2019)—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 (HHS),
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 (NHIS) is a major source of
general statistics on the health of the
U.S. population and has been in the
field continuously since 1957. This
voluntary and confidential householdbased survey collects demographic and
health-related information from a
nationally-representative sample of
households and noninstitutionalized,
civilian persons throughout the country.
NHIS data have 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. The survey is
also a leading source of data for the
Congressionally-mandated ‘‘Health US’’
and related publications, as well as the
single most important source of
statistics to track progress toward
Departmental health objectives.
The 2018 NHIS questionnaire remains
largely unchanged from its 2017
version, with the exception of new
supplements that are being added on
asthma and cancer control. These
supplements replace those from 2017 on
receipt of culturally and linguistically
appropriate health care services,
epilepsy, cognitive disability,
complementary health, hepatitis B/C
screening, vision, and heart disease and
stroke prevention. Continuing from
2017 are questions about access to and
utilization of care and barriers to care,
chronic pain, diabetes, disability and
functioning, family food security, ABCS
of heart disease and stroke prevention,
immunizations, smokeless tobacco and
e-cigarettes, and children’s mental
health.
In addition, in the last quarter of
2018, a portion of the regular 2018 NHIS
sample will be used to carry out a dress
rehearsal and systems test of the
redesigned NHIS questionnaire that is
scheduled for launch in January 2019.
The redesigned questionnaire revises
the NHIS both in terms of content and
