SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title:
Rural Health Network Development
Planning Performance Improvement and
Measurement System Database, OMB
No. 0915–0384—Revision
Abstract: The purpose of the Rural
Health Network Development Planning
(Network Planning) program is to assist
in the development of an integrated
health care network, specifically for
entities that do not have a history of
formal collaborative efforts. Health care
networks can be an effective strategy to
help smaller rural health care providers
and health care service organizations
align resources, achieve economies of
scale and efficiency, and address
challenges more effectively as a group
than as single providers. The Network
Planning program promotes the
planning and development of healthcare
networks in order to: (1) Achieve
efficiencies; (2) expand access to,
coordinate, and improve the quality of
essential health care services; and (3)
strengthen the rural health care system
as a whole.
The proposed change to this package
includes the addition of the ‘‘Ending the
HIV Epidemic (EHE): A Plan for
America’’ initiative, a multi-year HHS
initiative to end the HIV epidemic in the
United States within 10 years. The
purpose of the EHE Network Planning
program is targeted to the seven states
(Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky,
Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma and
South Carolina) with a disproportionate
number of HIV diagnoses in rural areas,
to assist in the development of an
integrated health network for HIV care
and treatment, specifically with network
participants who do not have a history
of formal collaborative efforts. EHE
Network Planning aims are: (i) To
achieve efficiencies; (ii) to expand
access to, coordinate, and improve the
quality of essential health care services;
and (iii) to strengthen the rural health
care system as a whole.
To address the aims of the EHE
Network Planning program, applicants
must describe planning activities that
support at least one of the four key
strategies specified in the ‘Ending the
HIV Epidemic: A Plan for America’
initiative: (i) Diagnose; (ii) Treat; (iii)
Prevent; and (iv) Respond. Performance
measures for the EHE Network Planning
Program serve the purpose of
quantifying awardee-level data that
conveys the successes and challenges
associated with the grant award. These
measures and aggregate data
substantiate and inform the focus and
objectives of the grant program.
A 60-day notice was published in the
Federal Register on August 26, 2019,
vol. 84, No. 165; pp. 44626–27. There
were no public comments. The scope of
this request was subsequently expanded
to include the EHE Network Planning
Program which, similar to the Network
Planning Program, focuses on building
rural health care network capacity. The
EHE Network Planning Program
specifically addresses HIV related
health service delivery in response to
the Administration’s ’Ending the HIV
Epidemic’ Initiative.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: This data collection
provides HRSA with information on
how well each grantee is meeting the
needs of implementing the Network
Planning and EHE Network Planning
and development activities in a rural
setting. Grantees of the EHE Network
Planning program will be reporting on
the performance measures from the
current Network Planning PIMS
measures.
The type of information requested in
the Network Planning and EHE Network
Planning PIMS enables HRSA to assess
the following characteristics about its
programs:
• The types and number of
organizations in the consortium or
network.
• The types of collaboration and/or
integration among the network
members.
• The contribution by network
members and the network’s
sustainability efforts.
• The network’s assessment of
effectiveness and during the project
period.
The respondents for these measures
are Network Planning and EHE Network
Planning award recipients.
If this information is not collected,
HRSA would be unable to measure
effective use of grant dollars to report on
progress toward strategic goals and
objectives of the Network Planning and
EHE Network Planning Programs.
Likely Respondents: The respondents
for these measures are Network
Planning and EHE Network Planning
award recipients.
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

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
