NEHRS is sponsored by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). The survey is conducted under authority of Section 306 of the Public Health Service Act (41 U.S.C. 242k). NEHRS data collection years are for 2020, 2021 and 2022. The purpose of this study is to collect information on office-based physicians’ adoption and use of electronic health record (EHR) systems, practice type, and ownership) over time. These annual data, together with trend data, may be used to monitor the effects of change in the health care system, provide new insights into ambulatory medical care, and stimulate further research on the use, organization, and delivery of ambulatory care. Data from NEHRS has been used by researchers in reports and programs such as Health, United States and Healthy People 2020, in addition to various other reports and research across federal, public, and international communities. The results of the data will help provide more information about the use and adoption of EHRs by office-based physicians both nationally and by state. CDC requests approval for 5,151 annual burden hours. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. information, patient engagement, controlled substances prescribing practices, use of health information exchange, and documentation and burden associated with medical record systems. The respondents are a sample of office-based physicians. The data collection is done directly through a self-administered web questionnaire, self-administered paper questionnaire or computer-assisted telephone interview. NEHRS collects information on characteristics of U.S. office-based physicians practicing ambulatory medical care, including specific focus on EHR adoption and use. Having data that can identify a physician office’s ability to perform specific computerized tasks helps track the adoption and use of new health information technologies across various physician and practice characteristics (e.g., specialty, office ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Number of responses per respondent Average burden per response (in hours) Total burden (in hours) Form name Office-based Physicians or office staff .............................

Proposed Project

    Templates for Extramural Data Management Plans--New--National 
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Data management plans (DMPs) are required of entities using CDC 
funds to collect or generate public health data. DMPs will be submitted 
to CDC by grant and cooperative agreement awardees for assessment to 
verify that they are concordant with CDC's data sharing policy. 
Currently, CDC does not have a standard template for a DMP. DMPs can be 
a checklist, paragraph, or any other format. Due to this fact, CDC has 
had to refer extramural applicants and recipients to external websites 
for examples on how to construct a DMP. This new ICR is being developed 
by CDC's National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health 
Promotion (NCCDPHP) to create standardized templates for DMPs so that 
they will be easier to create, easier to review, better ensure 
compliance with CDC's requirements, and increase the likelihood of 
first time approval by project officers. DMPs will be submitted as 
standalone sections of the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) and 
annual continuation applications; revisions can also be submitted by 
the awardees as needed. CDC requests approval for 933 Burden Hours. 
There are no costs to respondents other than their time.
