Individual TB patients may also be
respondents if critical clinical or contact
information is missing from their
referral and CureTB follows-up with
them to fill-in gaps to complete the
referral service. All 50 US states and
territories may refer TB patients to the
CureTB program. To date, CureTB has
also received referrals from Mexico and
Guatemala. Local health departments or
ICE detention facilities will submit
CureTB referral forms as they request
referral services. The number of referrals
varies widely between respondents.
To ensure adequate referral to
treatment occurs, CDC CureTB may
need to follow-up with an individual to
complete missing data fields concerning
clinical or contact information. This is
done to ensure continuity of care.
Therefore, individuals with TB are also
respondents in this information
collection. CDC’s CureTB program will
also continue working with our public
health partners in notifications and
referrals for contacts of TB cases. This
is a lesser used function of CureTB, but
burden is included below. These
respondents are health departments.
Finally, CDC staff in the CureTB
program also contact the new treating
physicians to determine patient
outcomes using CureTB Clinician Public
Health Department Follow-up Script.
The physicians are generally contacted
every two months over the course of
standard six month TB treatment, for a
total of three follow-up contacts per
patient.
The revision for this information
collection includes a small number of
changes to the CureTB Transnational
Notification information collection tool
for ease of use by the respondents, and
adding two pieces of additional data
important for clinical decision making
and patient contact. Additionally, CDC
is clarifying the specific burden
attributable to individuals within ICE
detention centers by noting this in the
Estimated Annualized Burden Hours
table. Finally, CDC is updating the
number of respondents and associated
burden based on program operations
over the last 12 months. No other
changes are proposed.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. Participation in this data
collection is voluntary. There are no
costs to respondents other than the time
required to complete the referral
documents and respond to CDC requests
for TB patient outcomes. The total
estimated annualized burden is 1,081
hours.

Proposed Project
Assessment of Technical Assistance
and Training Approaches to Accelerate
Comprehensive Cancer Control
Outcomes (OMB Control No. 0920–
1193, Exp. 7/31/2019)—Reinstatement
with Change—National Center for
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Cancer is the second leading cause of
death in the United States, and health
care costs for cancer care are expected
to rise to $158 billion by 2020.
Addressing this public health problem
requires primary prevention, early
detection and treatment, support for
cancer survivors, and a reduction in
health disparities. Providing support to
state, tribal, territorial and local
organizations to implement evidencebased strategies has the potential to
impact population-level cancer
outcomes and reduce the burden of
cancer.
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention’s (CDC) National
Comprehensive Cancer Control Program
(NCCCP) has been a primary funder for
state and community-based cancer
control interventions since its inception
in the late 1990s. The program supports
states and communities in developing a
comprehensive approach to cancer
prevention and control that includes
supporting an infrastructure for state,
local, and population-based
interventions and multi-sectoral
partnerships and coalitions. Currently,
NCCCP supports 66 cancer control
program grantees including programs in
all 50 states, the District of Columbia,
and in a number of tribes, tribal
organizations, and U.S. Associated
Pacific Islands/territories.
In striving to build capacity and
maximize the impact of CDC’s funded
programs, CDC has focused on
developing and implementing
innovative programs to enhance training
and technical assistance (TTA)
delivered to NCCCP awardees. CDC
funds two awardees under a cooperative
agreement—Provision of Technical
Assistance and Training to Assure
Comprehensive Cancer Control
Outcomes (DP18–1805). DP18–1805
awardees are charged with developing
and delivering high-quality TTA for
NCCCP funded programs, coalition
members, and partners focused on
improving implementation of evidencebased strategies for cancer prevention
and control. The TTA activities DP18–
1805 awardees implement include (1)
conduct of needs assessment, (2)
develop framework for building CCC
capacity, (3) coordinate and collaborate
with existing partners, (4) develop a
TTA plan, (5) implement a TTA plan
and conduct performance monitoring
and continuous quality improvement;
and (6) conduct a comprehensive
evaluation of TTA.
CDC proposes to conduct an
assessment of DP18–1805 awardees to:
(1) Document the nature of the TTA
provided by DP18–1805 awardees and
the extent to which the cooperative
agreement was able to achieve planned
short-term outcomes; and (2) identify
the extent to which DP18–1805 TTA
efforts contributed to NCCCP funded
programs’ achievement in program
outcomes. There are no other data
collection efforts currently underway to
assess implementation or perceived
effectiveness of TTA under DP18–1805.
This information collection request
will involve two complementary data
collection efforts: (1) Case studies of
DP18–1805 awardees (consisting of
interviews with DP18–1805 TTA
provider program managers/directors,
DP18–1805 TTA provider evaluators,
and DP18–1805 TTA provider partners)
and (2) a cross-sectional web-based
survey administered to NCCCP program
directors and staff, NCCCP coalition
members, and NCCCP partners. The
case studies will be used to explore how
DP18–1805 awardees are implementing
their respective cooperative agreements
and administering TTA to NCCCP
awardees; the factors that affect the
implementation of specific TTA
components; and the extent to which
they were able to achieve planned shortterm outcomes. The web-based survey
will inform CDC’s understanding of the
reach of DP18–1805 TTA efforts; elicit
information from NCCCP programs and
coalitions about the TTA received,
including type, dosage, frequency and
format; and assess the perceptions of the
effectiveness of the TTA.
CDC will use findings from the
assessment to inform development of
future TTA efforts to more effectively
and efficiently support NCCCP’s partner
organizations. OMB approval is
requested for three years. Participation
is voluntary and respondents will not
receive incentives for participation.
There are no costs to respondents other
than their time. The total estimated
annualized burden is 51 hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. 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;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
CDC Diabetes Prevention Recognition
Program (DPRP)—Revision—National
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention
and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC’s Division of Diabetes
Translation (DDT) established and
administers the National DPP’s Diabetes
Prevention Recognition Program
(DPRP), which recognizes organizations
PO 00000
Frm 00031
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
that deliver diabetes prevention
programs according to evidence-based
requirements set forth in the ‘‘Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
Diabetes Prevention Recognition
Program Standards and Operating
Procedures’’ (DPRP Standards).
Additionally, the Centers for Medicare
and Medicaid Services (CMS) Medicare
Diabetes Prevention Program (MDPP)
expansion of CDC’s National DPP was
announced in early 2016, when the
Secretary of Health and Human Services
determined that the Diabetes Prevention
Program met the statutory criteria for
inclusion in Medicare’s expanded list of
healthcare services for beneficiaries
(https://innovation.cms.gov/initiatives/
medicare-diabetes-prevention-program/
). This is the first time a preventive
service model from the CMS Innovation
(CMMI) Center has been expanded.
After extensive testing of the DPP model
in 17 sites across the U.S. in 2014–2016,
CMS proposed the MDPP in Sections
1102 and 1871 of the Social Security
Act (42 U.S.C. 1302 and 1395hh
§ 424.59), authorizing CDC-recognized
organizations to prepare for enrollment
as MDPP suppliers beginning in January
2018 in order to bill CMS for these
services. Only organizations in good
standing with the CDC DPRP are eligible
as MDPP suppliers. CDC continues to
work with CMS to support the MDPP.
CDC requests an additional three
years of OMB approval to continue
collecting the information needed to
administer the DPRP and information
needed by CMS to support the MDPP
benefit. Based on experience with the
DPRP from 2011–2020, including data
analysis, and feedback from applicant
organizations and internal and external
partners, CDC plans to revise the DPRP
Standards and the associated
information collection.
Key changes are a direct result of
DPRP data analyses and discussion with
National DPP stakeholders, including
those serving vulnerable populations.
Key changes allow for the optional
collection of Hemoglobin A1C levels,
and for weight/physical activity minutes
to be combined (a new method), to
determine Full recognition; the required
collection of Application Delivery Mode
questions; revised organizational type
information; program enrollment
motivation/enrollment source
information; adding Gender; and the
removal of Session ID.
Three data elements have been
minimally revised and no other data
elements have been added to the onetime application form; and, three
elements have been revised, one has
been deleted, and four have been added
