Supportive Services Demonstration/

Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: HUD

assists a large vulnerable senior
population in its Section 202 and other
elderly-designated properties. By virtue
of their advanced ages, low-incomes and
other demographic characteristics,
residents in these communities have
complex social, health and functional
situations. The quality affordable
housing provided by HUD provides a
fundamental base for these individuals
to age safely in their community. With
housing as a key social determinant of
health, HUD wishes to leverage its
properties as a platform for the
coordination and delivery of services to
better address the interdependent health
and supportive service needs of its older
residents. The Fiscal Year (FY) 2014
Consolidated Appropriations Act gave
HUD the authority to develop a
demonstration to test a model of
housing and supportive services for
low-income elderly residents in HUDassisted housing. In FY 2015, HUD
announced the availability of a funding
opportunity under the Supportive
Services Demonstration that will
provide grants to properties owner to
participate in the demonstration. The
purpose of this demonstration is to test
model of housing and supportive
services with the potential to delay
nursing home care for low-income
elderly residents in HUD-assisted
housing. HUD aims to better manage
residents’ health, decrease emergency
room and hospital utilization, and
maintain residents’ independence in
their homes for a longer period of time,
thus delaying or preventing transfers to
a higher level of care.
Conducting this research will require
the Implementation Team (The Lewin
Group and our partners from Leading
Age and the National Center for Healthy
Aging, under HUD contract
HHSP23337002T) to collect selfreported information from
demonstration participants. The
Implementation Team will leverage
existing validated tools combined
together in one comprehensive Resident
Needs Assessment. The Resident Needs
Assessment requests information on
demographics, health status and ability
to complete activities of Daily Living
(ADLs), and Instrumental Activities of
Daily Living (IADLs), as well as other
social and medical service information.
The Resident Needs Assessment will
occur face-to-face in a private setting
administered by trained enhanced
service coordinators or wellness nurses.
The assessment interview is expected to
last an average of 90 minutes.
Respondents: This information
collection will affect approximately
4,000 individuals residing in units of 40
funded demonstration sites
PO 00000
Frm 00104
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
(approximately 100 residents per
property; 40 properties in total).
Respondents are expected to be lowincome seniors who currently reside in
HUD-assisted multi-family properties.
All respondents will be presented with
an IRB approved informed consent form
prior to participation in the
demonstration. In their consent,
individuals agree to the collection of
data about their health and wellness.
Upon consent, respondents will be
requested to complete a Resident Needs
Assessment within 45 days of
enrollment in the demonstration.
Information will be collected in a
secure web-based platform that meets
all required federal regulations to track
general health and service use
information. Information will be
attributed to individuals by name.
Names and information collected in a
project-specific web-based platform will
link to HUD administrative data, which
HUD can be linked to Medicare and
possibly Medicaid data for program
evaluation purposes. All collected
information will be self-reported and
will inform the development of
individualized healthy aging plans and
property-wide health education/
promotion activities and programs,
including selection of specific evidencebased interventions to be implemented
within demonstration sites.
Additionally, results will support the
evaluation of the demonstration in
meeting HUD’s goals and desired
outcomes for the national
demonstration.
The table below estimates the total
burden to the public for the proposed
information collection, assuming an
hourly cost per response based on the
income levels of respondents. Hourly
costs were estimated using FY2016
income limits from the Office of Policy
Development and Research through
HUD’s Web site located at https://
www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/il/
il16/.
HUD tiers income levels for funded
recipients at three levels: Extremely
low, very low, and low. For purposes of
burden estimate, we selected the ‘‘low
income’’ tier to identify a median
income level.
Further delineation of the burden
estimates requires income adjustments
based on the number of individuals
residing with the respondent. Using
HUD data to conduct data analysis, we
estimate that:
• 67% of potential respondents will live
alone (2,847.00 respondents)
• 17% will reside with a spouse (722.00
respondents)
• 8% will reside with three people
(340.00 respondents)

• A single household is adjusted at 70%
of income of baseline ($46,060)
• Living with spouse is adjusted at 80%
of income of baseline ($52,640)
• Living in a three person household is
adjusted at 90% of income of baseline
($59,020)
• 8% will reside with four people
(340.00 respondents)
For HUD, the baseline for median
income is based on a four-person
household. For FY 2016 this was
adjusted at $65,800. Adjustments for
number of residents are legislated by
Congress.

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Record of Employee Interview.
OMB Approval Number: 2501–0009.
Type of Request: Reinstatement
without change of a previously
approved collection.
Form Number: HUD–11.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
information is used by HUD and
agencies administering HUD programs
to collect information from laborers and
mechanics employed on projects
subjected to the Federal Labor
Standards provisions. The information
collected is compared to information
submitted by the respective employer
on certified payroll reports. The
comparison tests the accuracy of the
employer’s payroll data and may
disclose violations.
Generally, these activities are geared
to the respondent’s benefit that is to
determine whether the respondent was
underpaid and to ensure the payment of
wage restitution to the respondent.
