Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled Enterprise
Laboratory Information Management
System (ELIMS) to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. CDC previously
published a ‘‘Proposed Data Collection
Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations’’ notice on December
23, 2019 to obtain comments from the
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:

Proposed Project
Enterprise Laboratory Information
Management System (ELIMS) Existing
Collection in Use without an OMB
control number—National Center for
Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious
Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The collection of specimen
information designated for testing by the
CDC occurs on a regular and recurring
basis (multiple times per day) using an
electronic PDF file called the CDC
Specimen Submission 50.34 Form or an
electronic XSLX file called the Global
File Accessioning Template. Hospitals,
doctor’s offices, medical clinics,
commercial testing labs, universities,
state public health laboratories, U.S.
federal institutions and foreign
institutions use the CDC Specimen
Submission Form 50.34 when
submitting a single specimen to CDC
Infectious Diseases laboratories for
testing. The CDC Specimen Submission
50.34 Form consists of over 200 data
entry fields (of which five are
mandatory fields that must be
completed by the submitter) that
captures information about the
specimen being sent to the CDC for
testing. The type of data captured on the
50.34 Form identifies the origin of the
E:\FR\FM\08SEN1.SGM

specimen (human, animal, food,
environmental, medical device or
biologic), CDC test order name/code,
specimen information, patient
information (as applicable), animal
information (as applicable) information
about the submitting organization
requesting the testing, patient history (as
applicable), owner information and
animal history (as applicable) and
epidemiological information. The
collection of this type of data is
pertinent in ensuring a specimen’s
testing results are linked to the correct
patient and the final test reports are
delivered to the appropriate submitting
organization to aid in making proper
health-related decisions related to the
patient. Furthermore, the data provided
on this form may be used by the CDC
to identify sources of potential
outbreaks and other public-health
related events. When the form is filled
out, a user in the submitting
organization prints a hard copy of it that
will be included in the specimen’s
shipping package sent to the CDC. The
printed form has barcodes on it that
allow the CDC testing laboratory to scan
its data directly into ELIMS where the
specimen’s testing lifecycle is tracked
and managed.
Likewise, the Global File
Accessioning Template records the
same data as the 50.34 Form but
provides the capability to submit
information for a batch of specimens
(typically 50–1,000 specimens per
batch) to a specific CDC laboratory for
testing. The CDC testing laboratory
electronically uploads the Global File
Accessioning Template into ELIMS
where the batch of specimens are then
logged and are ready to be tracked
through their respective testing and
reporting workflow. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time. The
total burden hours are 2,131 hours.

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
