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 the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. 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;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. 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 submissions
of responses.
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Study on Disparities in Distress
Screening Among Lung and Ovarian
Cancer—New—National Center for
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
Background and Brief Description
Within the cancer treatment
community, interest in the psychosocial
impacts of cancer diagnosis and
treatment is increasing. These
psychosocial impacts are wide ranging
PO 00000
Frm 00030
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
and include not only anxiety related to
the illness and treatment side effects
such as pain, fatigue and cognition, but
also stress related to nonmedical issues
such as family relationships, financial
hardship, social stressors (e.g.
transportation), and stigmatization.
There is growing evidence that
addressing the psychosocial stresses of
cancer survivors increases both their
longevity and quality of life.
The 2016 Institute of Medicine
(currently, National Academies of
Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine)
ovarian cancer report, funded by CDC,
calls for increased study of the
psychosocial needs of ovarian cancer
survivors, recognizing the high rates of
depression, anxiety, and distress. Up to
60% of lung cancer survivors also
experience high levels of distress. Both
ovarian and lung cancer patients have
relatively low 5-year survival rates (45%
and 17%, respectively). Therefore, CDC
believes that it is imperative to develop
a greater understanding about the types
of psychosocial services they receive
during their course of treatment and
follow-up care.
CDC proposes a new information
collection to examine the extent to
which disparities exist in distress
screening and follow-up among cancer
treatment facilities and programs across
the country. The study will include 50
healthcare facilities. From these
facilities, we will request electronic
health records (EHR) of 2,000 lung and
ovarian cancer survivors. Data elements
collected will include patient
demographic information, cancer
diagnosis and treatment, experience
with distress screening and follow-up
care, and medical service utilization.
Patient names, addresses, birth dates
and Social Security Numbers will not be
collected.
Staff from twelve of the 50
participating healthcare facilities will be
invited to participate in an interview
and focus group to provide contextual
understanding about facilitators and
barriers to distress screening and followup processes. This is a one-time data
collection. Results of this study will
provide CDC’s National Comprehensive
Cancer Control Program (NCCCP) with
information to assist with the
development of information, resources,
technical assistance, and future
evidence-based interventions to
improve the quality of life of lung and
ovarian cancer survivors. Summative
findings will be used to evaluate the
need to help with policy, systems, or
environmental changes that may
enhance the landscape of quality of life
services for cancer survivors in
communities at large. OMB approval is
