Background and Brief Description Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting (FGM/C) is a practice common in many countries; in parts of Asia, Africa and the Middle East that can have severe, deleterious health consequences for women and girls. Recent studies suggest that more than 500,000 women and girls in the United States may have been cut or be at risk for FGM/C based on whether women or their mothers are from countries with high prevalence of FGM/C.

Additional major knowledge gaps regarding FGM/C in the United States include: The prevalence of FGM/C in selected communities in the United States with high concentrations of residents from countries where FGM/C is prevalent; women’s attitudes about continuance of the practice; and the health characteristics and needs of women living in the United States who have experienced FGM/C or are at risk for FGM/C. This study aims to capture information on women’s history of FGM/C, their experiences with health care services, and their attitudes about continuation of the FGM/C practice. Findings from this study will be used to identify public health needs of women and communities in the United States that are affected by FGM/C, to formulate public health strategies to meet identified needs, and to inform prevention efforts. The proposed information collection will include piloting and conducting a full-scale survey of the health experiences and needs of women who live in selected communities in the United States with high concentrations of residents from countries where FGM/ C is widely practiced. The pilot study will be conducted during the first year of this project and will be used to assess the feasibility of sampling and recruiting methods for a hard-to-reach population on a sensitive topic. Based on findings from the pilot, a change request, including necessary translations, will be submitted to conduct the full study during the second and third year of this project. The full study is planned to be implemented in up to five community sites in the United States. The estimated annualized burden over the three years of this project is 356 hours. There are no costs to respondents other than their time to participate. E:\FR\FM\07FEN1.SGM 07FEN1

Proposed Project

    Minimum Data Elements (MDEs) for the National Breast and Cervical 
Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP)--(OMB No. 0920-0571, exp. 12/
31/2018)--Reinstatement with Change--National Center for Chronic 
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC)

Background and Brief Description

    CDC is requesting a Reinstatement with Change to OMB No. 0920-0571. 
Based on feedback from grantees and internal subject matter experts, 
CDC proposes use of revised minimum data elements (MDEs).
    Both breast and cervical cancers are prevalent among U.S. women--in 
2014, more than 236,000 women were diagnosed with breast cancer, and 
more than 12,000 women were diagnosed with cervical cancer. Evidence 
shows that deaths from both breast and cervical cancers can be avoided 
by increasing screening services--mammography and Pap tests--among 
women. However, screening is typically underutilized among women who 
are under- or uninsured, have no regular source of healthcare, or who 
recently immigrated to the U.S.
    Congress passed the Breast and Cervical Cancer Mortality Prevention 
Act of 1990, which directed CDC to establish the National Breast and 
Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP). The purpose of the 
NBCCEDP is to increase breast and cervical cancer screening rates among 
priority populations by funding grantees to provide breast and cervical 
cancer screening services to eligible women. CDC issued a new funding 
opportunity announcement to support a five-year cooperative agreement 
under CDC-RFA-DP17-1701. The number of grantees will increase from 67 
grantees to 70 grantees.
    CDC proposes a Reinstatement with Change to the MDEs to include 
removal of several data variables that are no longer relevant for CDC 
analyses, as well as collapsing/revising several data variables to 
reduce burden and increase clarity for respondents. The MDEs focus on: 
(1) Patient demographics, (2) breast cancer screening, (3) cervical 
cancer screening, (4) breast and cervical cancer diagnoses, (5) breast 
and cervical cancer treatment, (6) timeliness of services, and (7) 
patient navigation.
    Redesigned data elements will enable CDC to better gauge progress 
in meeting clinical service delivery processes and patient-level 
outcomes. Findings will allow CDC to assess program progress in meeting 
goals and monitor implementation activities, evaluate outcomes, and 
identify grantee technical assistance needs. In addition, data 
collected will inform program improvement and help identify successful 
activities that need to be maintained, replicated, or expanded.
    OMB approval is requested for three years. The total estimated 
annualized burden hours will decrease from 536 to 350 hours. There are 
no costs to respondents other than their time.
