Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled Assessment of
Cancer Prevention Services at
Community Mental Health Centers to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval. CDC
previously published a ‘‘Proposed Data
Collection Submitted for Public
Comment and Recommendations’’
notice on November 8, 2017 to obtain
comments from the public and affected
agencies. CDC received four comments
related to the previous notice. This
notice serves to allow an additional 30
days for public and affected agency
comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including, through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and
(e) Assess information collection
costs.
To request additional information on
the proposed project or to obtain a copy
of the information collection plan and
instruments, call (404) 639–7570 or
send an email to omb@cdc.gov. Direct
written comments and/or suggestions
regarding the items contained in this
notice to the Attention: CDC Desk
Officer, Office of Management and
Budget, 725 17th Street NW,
Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202)
395–5806. Provide written comments
within 30 days of notice publication.
Proposed Project
Assessment of Cancer Prevention
Services at Community Mental Health
Centers (0920–17AZG)—New—National
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention
and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
People with mental illness (MI) have
higher rates of cancer risk factors such
as smoking and obesity than people
without MI.
Many people with MI receive
outpatient mental health care at
community mental health centers
(CMHC), and some of these facilities
also provide screening for
cardiovascular disease and other
chronic conditions. The extent to which
CMHCs provide cancer prevention
services is not understood.
This project will use online
instruments and telephone interviews
with psychiatric clinicians (e.g.,
psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse
practitioners, psychologists, registered
nurses, and other clinicians who might
oversee cancer prevention services) and
administrators at selected CMHCs across
the United States to assess the capacities
of these facilities to provide cancer
prevention services (e.g., cancer risk
factor education, cancer screening
referrals, tobacco cessation counseling)
to clients.
Our goal is to achieve a final analytic
sample of at least 250 psychiatric
clinicians and 250 administrators at
CMHCs. A subset of 5%–10% of each
group will be interviewed by telephone.
The objectives of this study are to: (1)
Describe the capacity of CMHCs to
provide cancer prevention services; (2)
describe any written policies and
procedures at CMHCS for providing
these services; (3) describe any
collaboration of CMHCs with health
care providers or community health
workers/organizations to provide these
services; and (4) describe any barriers to
providing these services. Researchers
will ask respondents for CMHCs that
provide cancer prevention services
about best practices and lessons learned.
To calculate the total burden, we
estimated 500 respondents for the
surveys and 50 for the interviews. The
average burden varied from 15–20
minutes for the surveys, and an hour for
the interviews. The total estimated
annual burden hours are 392. There will
be no costs to the respondents other
than their time.
