public and affected agencies. CDC
received one comment related to the
previous notice. This notice serves to
allow an additional 30 days for public
and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;

electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and
(e) Assess information collection
costs.

Proposed Project
Developmental Projects to Improve
the National Health and Nutrition
Examination Survey and Related
Programs, (OMB Control No. 0920–1208
Exp. 12/31/2020)—Revision — National
Center for Health Statistics (NCHS),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Section 306 of the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 242k), as
amended, authorizes that the Secretary
of Health and Human Services (DHHS),
acting through NCHS, shall collect
statistics on the extent and nature of
illness and disability; environmental,
social and other health hazards; and
determinants of health of the population
of the United States. The Division of
Health and Nutrition Examination
Surveys (DHNES) has conducted
national surveys and related projects
periodically between 1970 and 1994,
and continuously since 1999.
The mission of DHNES programs is to
produce descriptive statistics which
measure the health and nutrition status
of the general population. The
continuous operation of DHNES
programs presents unique challenges in
testing new survey content and
activities, such as outreach or
participant screening.
In 2023 and beyond, NHANES may
need to implement changes to the
survey such as sample design, outreach
activities, procedures, content,
protocols, methods and settings in
which the survey is conducted. The
survey may also need to collaborate
more closely with other public health
surveys and programs, both within
NCHS/CDC and with outside
organizations. Such changes may be
needed to respond to declines in
response rate, adapt to changes in
technology and address future public
health needs. To prepare for such
change, the program may need to do
more testing than in past cycles. This
request includes an increase in number
of participants and burden hours for
Developmental Projects & Focus Group
activities. It also expands the types of
participants covered by this generic
request to include ‘‘current or past
participants of other NCHS surveys/
programs/projects’’ and ‘‘individuals
eligible to be participants of other NCHS
surveys/programs/projects, but who did
not actually screen in’’.
This generic revision request covers
developmental projects to help evaluate
and enhance DHNES existing and
proposed data collection activities to
increase research capacity and improve
data quality. The information collected
through this Generic Information
Collection Request will not be used to
make generalizable statements about the
population of interest or to inform
public policy; however, methodological
findings from these projects may be
reported.
The purpose and use of projects under
this NHANES generic clearance would
include developmental projects
necessary for activities such as testing
new procedures, equipment, technology
and approaches that are going to be
folded into NHANES or other NCHS
programs; designing and testing
examination components or survey
questions; creating new studies,
including biomonitoring and clinical
measures; creating new cohorts,
including a pregnancy and/or a birth—
24 month cohort; testing of the cognitive
and interpretive aspects of survey
methodology; feasibility testing of
proposed new components or
modifications to existing components;
testing of human-computer interfaces/
usability; assessing the acceptability of
proposed NHANES components among
likely participants; testing alternative
approaches to existing NHANES
procedures, including activities related
to improving nonresponse; testing the
use of or variations/adjustments in
incentives; testing content of web based
surveys; testing the feasibility of
obtaining bodily fluid specimens (blood,
urine, semen, saliva, breastmilk) and
tissue sample (swabs); testing digital
imaging technology and related
procedures (e.g., retinal scan, liver
ultrasound, Dual-energy X-ray
absorptiometry (DEXA), prescription
and over-the-counter dietary
supplements bottles); testing the
feasibility of and procedure/processes
for accessing participant’s medical
records from healthcare settings (e.g.,
hospitals and physician offices); testing
the feasibility and protocols for home
examination measurements; testing
survey materials and procedures to
improve response rates, including
changes to advance materials and
protocols, changes to the incentive
structure, introduction of new and
timely outreach and awareness
procedures including the use of social
media; conducting crossover studies;
creating and testing digital survey
materials; and conducting customer
satisfaction assessments.
The types of participants covered by
the NHANES generic may include
current or past NHANES participants;
family or household members of
NHANES participants; individuals
eligible to be participants in NHANES,
but who did not screen into the actual
survey; convenience samples;
volunteers; subject matter experts or
consultants such as survey
methodologist, academic researchers,
clinicians or other health care providers;
NHANES data or website users;
members of the general public or
individuals abroad who would be part
of a collaborative development project
or projects between NCHS and related
public health agencies in the U.S. and/
or abroad.
The type of participants involved in a
given developmental project would be
determined by the nature of the project.
The details of each project will be
included in the specific GenIC
submissions. Participation is voluntary
and confidential. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time. We
are requesting a three-year approval,
with 59,465 annualized hours of
burden.
