SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Agenda: On April 2, 2020, in the
morning, the BPAC will meet in open
session to discuss and make
recommendations on strategies to
reduce the risk of ZIKV transmission by
blood and blood components. The
committee will discuss whether
universal testing of blood donations for
ZIKV is an appropriate strategy
considering the decline of ZIKV cases in
the United States and worldwide. In the
afternoon, the committee will meet in
open session to hear an update on the
TTIMS. Sponsored by the FDA, the
National Institutes of Health National
Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, and the
Department of Health and Human
Services Office of the Assistant
Secretary for Health, TTIMS collects
incidence, prevalence and risk factor
data for certain transfusion-transmitted
infections, including human
immunodeficiency virus, in U.S. blood
donations. On April 3, 2020, the
committee will meet in open session to
discuss and make recommendations on
testing for hepatitis B surface antigen
(HBsAg) in blood donations. The
committee will discuss whether testing
for HBsAg can be discontinued
considering the sensitivity of hepatitis B
virus nucleic acid testing and hepatitis
B anti-core testing of blood donations in
the United States.
FDA intends to make background
material available to the public no later
than 2 business days before the meeting.
If FDA is unable to post the background
material on its website prior to the
meeting, the background material will

Information Collection Request Title:
Membership Forms for Organ
Procurement and Transplantation
Network OMB No. 0915–0184–Revision
Abstract: This is a request for OMB
approval for revisions of the application
documents used to collect information
for determining if the interested party is
compliant with membership
requirements contained in the final rule
Governing the Operation of the Organ
Procurement and Transplantation
Network (OPTN), (42 CFR part 121) ‘‘the
OPTN final rule.’’
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: Membership in the OPTN
is determined by submission of
application materials to the OPTN (not
to HRSA) demonstrating that the
applicant meets all required criteria for
membership and will agree to comply
with all applicable provisions of the
National Organ Transplant Act, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. 273, et seq., the
OPTN final rule, OPTN Policies, and
OPTN Bylaws. Section 1138 of the
Social Security Act, as amended, 42
U.S.C. 1320b–8 (section 1138) requires
that hospitals in which transplants are
performed be members of, and abide by,
the rules and requirements of the OPTN
(that have been approved by the
Secretary of HHS) as a condition of
participation in Medicare and Medicaid.
Section 1138 contains a similar
provision for the organ procurement
organizations (OPOs) and makes
membership in the OPTN and
compliance with its rules and

requirements (that have been approved
by the HHS Secretary), including those
relating to data collection, mandatory
for all transplant programs and OPOs.
Proposed Revisions to OPTN
Membership Applications: Changes to
the forms are proposed to make
application requirements more clear and
organized, and thus less cumbersome
for applicants to complete. Proposed
revisions include changes to wording to
make questions more consistent with
the language of the OPTN Bylaws
(Bylaws). In addition, the applications
have been revised so that the sequence
of questions is parallel to that of the
Bylaws. Using the Bylaws as a baseline,
the revamped applications have been
constructed in parallel order of the
Bylaws so that an applicant can have
the application and Bylaws side-by-side
for easy reference. Additional proposed
changes to the application include:
• A few major changes were made to
the application order of documentation
and attachments. The embedded
transplant logs were revised in the form
of a ‘universal’ surgeon and physician
log that will be provided as a separate
attachment to the application. This new
log will provide applicants with all
OPTN Bylaws requirements. We hope
the added technology utilized in the log
will help applicants complete the log
with limited errors.
• Also within the applications,
‘‘checkboxes’’—fillable tables that were
not checkboxes at all—were removed
and working checkboxes were inserted.
The ‘‘narrative’’ section was replaced by
checkbox attestations, which will serve
the same purpose—understanding
relevant and recent surgeon and
physician applicant experience.
• The previous membership
applications had several places for the
applicants to sign. The new application
requests only one signature from each
individual member applicant involved.
• Additional changes to the
application process include
streamlining previous application
attachments for key personnel and
living donor components into one form
for the respective organ application.
• Pediatric Bylaw Requirements,
where applicable, were also given their
own sections within the organ
applications. Conversely, the Certificate
of Assessment (formerly known as
Certificate of Investigation) and the
Primary Coverage Plan Checklist were
pulled out of the previous organ specific
applications and given their own,
separate attachment. These changes will
allow OPTN application reviewers to
give these application components to
applicants in as few attachments as
possible. These changes will also allow
PO 00000
Frm 00057
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
8301
the United Network for Organ Sharing
Membership Team to give these
important application components to
applicants in as few attachments as
possible, but are inclusive of all possible
changes within a program.
• Further changes have been made to
the Vascularized Composite Allograft
(VCA) Transplant program applications,
which were previously submitted as
separate applications for OMB approval
based on body part transplanted. These
forms have been revised into one single
application with sections for each VCA
organ type.
• Personnel changes for Organ
Procurement Organizations (OPOs) and
Histocompatibility Laboratories have
also been consolidated into organization
applications. OPO and Lab applicants
will be able to use one respective
application for new and/or personnel
changes.
• Given these changes, the overall
burden has decreased significantly from
an estimated 7,016 total burden hours to
4,755 hours in this current proposed
revision package, although some forms
have been combined into one more
comprehensive form resulting in
increased burden hours for a particular
form.
Likely Respondents: Parties seeking
initial OPTN membership approval and
then maintenance of existing OPTN
approval. Applicants include the
following: hospitals seeking to perform
organ transplants, non-profit
organizations seeking to become an
organ procurement organization, and
medical laboratories seeking to become
an OPTN-approved histocompatibility
laboratory. In addition, there are other
OPTN membership categories for
organizations and individuals who want
to participate in the organ transplant
system, and they are also required to fill
out an appropriate application.
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.

Given these changes, the overall burden has decreased

in this current proposed revision package, although some forms have
been combined into one more comprehensive form resulting in increased

Likely Respondents: Parties seeking initial OPTN membership
approval and then maintenance of existing OPTN approval. Applicants
include the following: hospitals seeking to perform organ transplants,
non-profit organizations seeking to become an organ procurement
organization, and medical laboratories seeking to become an OPTN-
approved histocompatibility laboratory. In addition, there are other
OPTN membership categories for organizations and individuals who want
to participate in the organ transplant system, and they are also
required to fill out an appropriate application.
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
