SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title:
Rural Communities Opioid Response
Program Performance Measures, OMB
No. 0906-xxxx, New
Abstract: The Rural Communities
Opioid Response Program (RCORP) is a
multi-initiative program that aims to: (1)
Support treatment for, and prevention
of, substance use disorder (SUD),
including opioid use disorder (OUD);
and (2) reduce morbidity and mortality
associated with SUD, to include OUD,
by improving access to prevention,
treatment, and recovery support services
to high-risk rural communities. To
support this purpose, RCORP grant
initiatives include:
• RCORP-Planning grants to
strengthen the capacity of multi-sector
consortia to collaborate and develop
plans to deliver SUD/OUD prevention,
treatment, and recovery services in
high-risk rural communities;
• RCORP-Implementation grants to
fund established networks and consortia
to deliver SUD/OUD prevention,
treatment, and recovery activities in
high-risk rural communities; and
• RCORP-Medication Assisted
Treatment Expansion grants to enhance
access to medication-assisted treatment
within eligible hospitals, health clinics,
or tribal organizations in high-risk rural
communities.
Additionally, all RCORP grant award
recipients will be supported by five
cooperative agreements: RCORPTechnical Assistance, which provides
extensive technical assistance to award
recipients; RCORP-Evaluation, which
will evaluate the impact of the RCORP
initiative on rural communities; and
three RCORP-Rural Centers of
Excellence in Substance Use Disorders,
which will disseminate best practices
related to the treatment for, and
prevention of, SUD within rural
communities. A 60-day notice was

comments.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: For this program,
performance measures were developed
to provide data on each RCORP
initiative and to enable HRSA to
provide aggregate program data required
by Congress under the Government
Performance and Results Act of 1993.
These measures cover the principal
topic areas of interest to the Federal
Office of Rural Health Policy (FORHP),
including: (a) Provision of, and referral
to, SUD treatment and support services;
(b) SUD prevention, treatment, and
recovery process and outcomes; (c)
education of health care providers and
community members; (d) number of
fatal and non-fatal opioid-related
overdoses; and (e) consortium strength
and sustainability. All measures will
speak to FORHP’s progress toward
meeting the goals set.
Likely Respondents: The respondents
will be the grant award recipients of
RCORP initiatives.
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

Information Collection Request Title:
Health Resources and Services

Abstract: The Health Center Program,
administered by HRSA, is authorized
PO 00000
Frm 00060
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
under section 330 of the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act, most recently
amended by section 50901(b) of the
Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, Public
Law 115–123. Health centers are
community-based and patient-directed
organizations that deliver affordable,
accessible, quality, and cost-effective
primary health care services to patients
regardless of their ability to pay. Nearly
1,400 health centers operate
approximately 12,000 service delivery
sites that provide primary health care to
more than 27 million people in every
U.S. state, the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and
the Pacific Basin. HRSA uses the
Uniform Data System (UDS) for annual
reporting by certain HRSA award
recipients, including Health Center
Program awardees (those funded under
section 330 of the PHS Act), Health
Center Program look-alikes, and Nurse
Education, Practice, Quality and
Retention (NEPQR) Program awardees
(specifically those funded under the
practice priority areas of section 831(b)
of the PHS Act).
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: HRSA collects UDS data
annually to ensure compliance with
legislative and regulatory requirements,
improve clinical and operational
performance, and report overall program
accomplishments. These data help to
identify trends over time, enabling
HRSA to establish or expand targeted
programs and to identify effective
services and interventions that will
improve the health of medically
underserved communities. HRSA
analyzes UDS data with other national
health-related data sets to compare the
Health Center Program patient
populations and the overall U.S.
population.
HRSA plans to continue aligning
several clinical measures reported in the
UDS with the Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services’ (CMS) electronic
specified clinical quality measures
(eCQM) and is considering the following
changes for 2020 UDS data collection:
• Retiring CMS126 Use of
Appropriate Medications for Asthma:
