28561. There were no public comments.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The purpose of this data
collection effort is for HRSA contractors
to assess the review criteria being used
to systematically identify and select
RWHAP-funded best practice
intervention strategies that demonstrate
impact across the HIV care continuum
for the online compilation.
Assessing the review criteria will
allow HRSA to obtain important
information from recipients and
determine if the intervention strategies
shared via the submission form are
effective in improving outcomes across
the HIV care continuum. Intervention
strategies that meet the review criteria
verified by HRSA contractors and
approved by HRSA program staff
through this data collection will be
considered best practices and made
available through the online
compilation for consideration,
adaptation, and replication by other HIV
programs. In addition, the best practices
will support peer exchange to resolve
problems impacting HIV care and
treatment and eliminating disparities in
health outcomes.
Likely Respondents: RWHAP
recipients and subrecipients that
voluntarily submit a best practice
strategy or intervention will participate
in the data collection. The project team
expects that up to 70 recipients and
subrecipients will complete the
screening form and 50 will screen
eligible and complete the full
submission form. For the site visits, the
project team will strategically select 30
sites from the universe of submitted
eligible initiatives, ensuring a range of
scores and representativeness of factors
such as Census region, proposed
strategy/intervention outcome, priority
population, and the type of agency or
provider implementing the strategy or
intervention.
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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title:
Hospital Campaign for Organ Donation
Scorecard OMB No. 0915–0373,
Revision
Abstract: HRSA’s Hospital Campaign
for Organ Donation enlists healthcare
organizations nationwide to increase the
number of registered organ, eye, and
tissue donors by hosting education and
donor registration events in their
facilities and communities. A scorecard
identifies activities that participants can
implement and assigns points to each
activity. Participants that earn a certain
number of points annually are
recognized by HRSA and the campaign’s
national partners.
For this information collection
request, the proposed change to the
Scorecard is the addition of the 2020
date. HRSA also intends to create a new
electronic version of the Scorecard for
future campaigns that will ultimately
reduce the level of burden for

10OCN1
54617
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 197 / Thursday, October 10, 2019 / Notices
participants. The electronic version will
be designed to be user-friendly, will
take less time to complete, and will
provide HRSA with data throughout the
campaign rather than once a year.
Another benefit of an electronic
scorecard is that it will eliminate the
possibility of human error as
information will no longer be manually
entered into a database.
A 60-day notice was published in the
Federal Register on July 2, 2019, Vol.
84, 127; pp. 31602–31603.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: There is a substantial
imbalance in the U.S. between the
number of people whose lives depend
on organ transplants (currently more
than 113,000) and the annual number of
organ donors (approximately 14,000
living and deceased). This imbalance
results in about 7,300 waiting list deaths
annually. In response to the need for
increased donation, HRSA conducts
public outreach initiatives to encourage
the American public to sign up on state
donor registries as future organ donors.
The Scorecard motivates and
facilitates healthcare organizations’
participation in the campaign, provides
the basis for rewarding participants for
their accomplishments, and enables
HRSA to measure and evaluate
campaign process and outcomes. The
scorecard also enables HRSA to make
data-based decisions and improvements
for subsequent campaigns.
Likely Respondents: The likely
respondents include the following:
Hospital development and public
relations staff of organ procurement and
other donation organizations; hospital
staff such as nurses or public relations/
communications professionals; staff at
physician’s offices, health clinics, and
emergency medical services; and
volunteers that work with healthcare
organizations on organ donation
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

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.
