Information Collection Request Title:
The Stem Cell Therapeutic Outcomes
Database OMB No. 0915–0310,
Revision.
Abstract: The Stem Cell Therapeutic
and Research Act of 2005, Public Law
(Pub. L.) 109–129, as amended by the
Stem Cell Therapeutic and Research
Reauthorization Act of 2015, Public Law
114–104 (the Act), provides for the
collection and maintenance of human
blood stem cells for the treatment of
patients and research. The Act requires
the Secretary to contract for the
establishment and maintenance of
information related to patients who
have received stem cell therapeutic
products and to do so using a
standardized, electronic format. HRSA’s
Healthcare Systems Bureau has
established the Stem Cell Therapeutic
Outcomes Database, which necessitates
certain electronic record keeping and
reporting requirements to perform the
functions related to hematopoietic stem
cell transplantation under contract to
HHS. Data is collected from transplant
centers by the Center for International
Blood and Marrow Transplant Research
and is used for ongoing analysis of
transplant outcomes. Over time, there is
an expected increase in the number of
recipients for whom data are reported as
the increasing number of transplants are
performed annually and survivorship
after transplantation improves.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: Per statutory
responsibilities, information collected
on the forms outlined in the ‘‘Total
Estimated Annualized Burden Hours’’
section below is needed to monitor the
clinical status of transplantation and
provide the Secretary with an annual
report of transplant center-specific
survival data. The proposed revisions of
these data collection forms fall into
several categories: Consolidating
questions and removing duplicate
questions across the forms,
implementing ‘‘check all that apply’’
formatting to reduce data entry time,
and removing items no longer clinically
significant (e.g., drugs). These proposed
revisions are not anticipated to affect
total burden hours.
Likely Respondents: Transplant
Centers.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose, or provide the information
requested. 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. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.

HRSA specifically requests comments
on (1) the necessity and utility of the
proposed information collection for the
proper performance of the agency’s
functions, (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden, (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected, and (4) the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology to minimize the information
collection burden.

Information Collection Request Title:
Black Lung Clinics Program
Performance Measures, OMB No. 0915–
0292—Extension.
Abstract: HRSA’s Federal Office of
Rural Health Policy conducts an annual
data collection of user information for
the Black Lung Clinics Program, which
has been ongoing with OMB approval
since 2004. The purpose of the Black
Lung Clinics Program is to reduce the
morbidity and mortality associated with
occupationally-related coal mine dust
lung disease through the screening,
diagnosis, and treatment of active,
inactive, retired, and/or disabled coal
miners. Collecting this data provides
HRSA with information on how well
each grantee is meeting the needs of
these miners in their communities.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: Data from the annual
report provides quantitative information
about the clinics, specifically: (a) The
characteristics of the patients they serve
(gender, age, disability level, and
occupation type); (b) the characteristics
of services provided (medical
encounters, non-medical encounters,
benefits counseling, and outreach); and
(c) the number of patients served. This
assessment enables HRSA to provide
data required by Congress under the
Government Performance and Results
Act of 1993. It also ensures that funds
are effectively used to provide services
that meet the target population needs.
HRSA does not plan to make any
changes to the performance measures at
this time.
Likely Respondents: Black Lung
Clinics Program Grantees.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose, or provide the information
requested. 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. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.
