Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 165 / Monday, August 26, 2019 / Notices
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) works to promote
optimal nutrition, physical activity, and
wellness in early care and education
(ECE) facilities for children 0–5 years of
age. Data collected from this pilot
survey will be used to understand the
current practices of ECE centers in a
representative sample in four states. The
survey will also be used to inform the
development of a potential national
surveillance system.
A sample of approximately 1,266 ECE
centers across four states will be
selected to participate in this one-time
data collection effort. However, it is
estimated that approximately 10% of
the original sample will be out of
business or otherwise ineligible,
yielding an actual sample of 1,140 ECEs
to be recruited. Each center will receive
a recruitment letter introducing the
survey, and instructions for completing
the survey. It is anticipated that most
responses will be submitted through the
web. However, paper surveys will be
available upon request. It is also
anticipated that the response rate will
be approximately 55% based on a
review of recent surveys of child care
centers conducted by the Federal
government. Thus, we anticipate the
number of completed surveys to be 627.
CDC requests approval for an estimated
409 Burden Hours. Participation in this
study is completely voluntary and there
are no costs to the respondent other
than their time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title:
HIV Quality Measures Module, OMB
No. 0906–0022—Revision.
Abstract: HRSA Ryan White HIV/
AIDS Program (RWHAP) funds and
coordinates with cities, states, and local
clinics/community-based organizations
to deliver efficient and effective HIV
care, treatment, and support to low
income people living with HIV. Nearly
two-thirds of clients (patients) live at or
below 100 percent of the federal poverty
level and approximately three-quarters
of RWHAP clients are racial/ethnic
minorities. Since 1990, the RWHAP has
developed a comprehensive system of
safety net providers who deliver high
quality direct health care and support
services to over half a million people
living with HIV—more than 50 percent
of all people living with diagnosed HIV
in the United States.
All parts of the RWHAP must follow
the legislative requirements for the
establishment of clinical quality
management programs to assess their
HIV services according to the most
recent HHS guidelines and to develop
strategies to improve access to quality
HIV services. The HIVQM Module
supports recipients and sub recipients
in their clinical quality management,
performance measurement, service
delivery, and monitoring of client health
outcomes; and supports the requirement
imposed by the Uniform Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles, and
Audit Requirements for HHS Awards
that recipients relate financial data to
performance accomplishments of their
federal awards. 45 CFR 75.301. The
module is accessible via the Ryan White
Services Report, an existing online
portal that RWHAP recipients already
use for required data collection of their
services. While the use of the module is
voluntary for RWHAP recipients, its use
is strongly encouraged.
The HRSA performance measures are
comprised of the following categories:
(1) Core medical services, (2) all ages,
(3) adolescent/adult, (4) children with
DATES:

HIV, (5) HIV-exposed children, (6)
medical case management, (7) oral
health, (8) AIDS Drug Assistance
Program, and (9) systems level
performance measures. Recipients can
choose the performance measures they
want to monitor and may enter data on
their measures into the module up to
four times a year and then generate
reports to assess their performance.
Recipients may also compare their
performance against other recipients
regionally and nationally.
A 60-day notice was published in the
Federal Register on March 14, 2019,
vol. 84, No. 50; pp. 9362–63. There were
four public comments.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The HIVQM Module
provides recipients an easy-to-use and
structured platform to voluntarily and
continually monitor their performance.
The main purpose for the module is to
help recipients set goals and monitor
performance measures and quality
improvement projects. For this revised
ICR, HRSA is proposing to allow
recipients the option to enter data for
specific populations for a subset of
performance measures based on age,
gender, race, ethnicity, and specific risk
factors, which will allow for target
services and quality improvement
activities to people most at need. In
addition, recipients will be able to
generate reports of performance
measures, review them stratified by the
recipients or their service providers, and
compare to results at the state, regional,
and national levels. HRSA is proposing
these enhancements to increase the
functionality and overall usability of the
HIVQM Module.
The HIVQM Module was piloted for
this revision request in June 2019.
Recipients or sub recipients, who
submitted data for more than two
reporting periods in the last year and
represented the use of various data
systems, submitted feedback on the new
data stratification feature. Their
feedback included questions about: (1)
How the data stratification feature in the
HIVQM Module would differ from and
integrate with CAREWare (CW)
reporting; and (2) the availability of the
template for the data stratification
feature. HRSA’s responses included
describing the interface between CW
and the HIVQM Module, explaining
how reports will be produced and
further explaining why the HIVQM
Module will be a useful tool in
comparing state, regional, and national
performance measure data among
recipients/sub recipients who use the
HIVQM Module.

file a request. For all Medicare beneficiaries, hospitals must deliver
valid, written notice of a beneficiary's rights as a hospital
inpatient, including discharge appeal rights. The hospital must use a
standardized notice, as specified by CMS. This is satisfied by IM
delivery.

for Medicare health plans, hospitals must
