I. Background
FDA is announcing the availability of
a draft guidance for industry entitled
‘‘Advanced Prostate Cancer: Developing
Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone
Analogues.’’ This draft guidance
describes the FDA’s current
recommendations regarding the overall
development program and clinical trial
designs for developing GnRH analogues
to treat advanced prostate cancer.
This draft guidance is being issued
consistent with FDA’s good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115).

is not binding on FDA or the public.
You can use an alternative approach if
it satisfies the requirements of the
applicable statutes and regulations. This
guidance is not subject to Executive
Order 12866.

Abstract: The National Health Service
Corps (NHSC) Loan Repayment Program
(LRP) was established to assure an
adequate supply of trained primary care
health professionals to provide services
in the neediest Health Professional
Shortage Areas (HPSAs) of the United
States. The NHSC Substance Use
Disorder (SUD) Workforce LRP and the
NHSC Rural Community LRP were
established to recruit and retain a health
professional workforce with specific
training and credentials to provide
evidence-based SUD treatment in
HPSAs. Under these programs, HHS
agrees to repay the qualifying
educational loans of selected primary
care health professionals. In return, the
health professionals agree to serve for a
specified period of time in a NHSCapproved site located in a federallydesignated HPSA approved by the
Secretary for LRP participants. The
forms utilized by each LRP include the
following: (1) The NHSC LRP
Application, the Authorization for
Disclosure of Loan Information form, (2)
the Privacy Act Release Authorization
form, and, if applicable, (3) the
Verification of Disadvantaged
Background form, and (4) the Private
Practice Option form. The first three of
the aforementioned NHSC LRP forms
collect information that is needed for
selecting participants and repaying
qualifying educational loans. The last
referenced form, the Private Practice
Option Form, is needed to collect
information for all participants who
have applied for that service option.
NHSC-approved sites are health care
facilities that provide comprehensive
outpatient, ambulatory, primary health
care services to populations residing in
HPSAs. Related in-patient services may
be provided by NHSC-approved Critical
Access Hospitals and Indian Health
Service hospitals. In order to become an
NHSC-approved site, new sites must
submit a Site Application for review
and approval. Existing NHSC-approved
sites are required to complete a Site
Recertification Application every 3
years in order to maintain their NHSCapproved status. Both the NHSC Site
Application and Site Recertification
Application request information on the
clinical service site, sponsoring agency,
recruitment contact, staffing levels,
service users, charges for services,
employment policies, and fiscal
management capabilities. Assistance in
completing these applications may be
obtained through the appropriate State
Primary Care Office and the NHSC. The
information collected on the
applications is used for determining the
eligibility of sites for the assignment of
PO 00000
Frm 00071

NHSC health professionals and to verify
the need for NHSC clinicians. NHSC
service site approval is valid for 3 years.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The need and purpose of
this information collection is to assess
an LRP applicant’s eligibility and
qualifications for the LRP, and to obtain
information for NHSC site applicants.
The NHSC LRP application asks for
personal, professional, and financial/
loan information.
The proposed revisions in this ICR
include asking applicants to provide
their educational information on the
completion of advanced training such as
the Primary Care Training and
Enhancement (PCTE) Champion
fellowship. To identify the PCTE
Champions, the NHSC will require
applicants to respond to the following
additional questions and submit their
National Practitioner Identifier (NPI):
(1) Have you completed a fellowship?
(2) Applicants who selected ‘‘yes’’ to
the question above are required to
submit the NPI number.
NHSC policy requires behavioral
health providers to practice in a
community-based setting that provides
access to comprehensive behavioral
health services. Accordingly, for those
sites seeking to be assigned behavioral
health NHSC participants, additional
site information will be collected from
an NHSC Comprehensive Behavioral
Health Services Checklist. NHSC sites
that do not directly offer all required
behavioral health services must
demonstrate a formal affiliation with a
comprehensive, community-based
primary behavioral health setting or
facility to provide these services.
Likely Respondents: Likely
respondents include: (1) Licensed
primary care medical, dental, and
mental and behavioral health providers
who are employed or seeking
employment, and are interested in
serving underserved populations; (2)
health care facilities interested in
participating in the NHSC and becoming
an NHSC-approved service site; and (3)
NHSC sites providing behavioral health
care services directly, or through a
formal affiliation with a comprehensive
community-based primary behavioral
health setting or facility providing
comprehensive behavioral health
services.
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
