Download as PDF 55458 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 174 / Tuesday, September 8, 2020 / Notices Changes made, that did not affect the burden, listed below: • Non-substantive changes have been made to the respondent consent form to decrease the reading comprehension level and make the form more visual. • Nine data elements were removed from, and three data elements were added to the Minimum Dataset. Because these data elements are extracted from the HIV surveillance system from which they are sampled, these changes do not affect the burden of the project. • Seven data elements were added to the medical record abstraction data elements to collect information on SARS-CoV–2 (COVID–19) testing. Because the medical records are abstracted by MMP staff, these changes do not affect the burden of the project. This proposed data collection would supplement the National HIV Surveillance System (NHSS, OMB Control No. 0920–0573, Exp. 11/30/ 2022) in 23 selected state and local health departments, which collect information on persons diagnosed with, living with, and dying from HIV infection and AIDS. The participation of respondents is voluntary. There is no cost to the respondents other than their time. Through their participation, respondents will help to improve programs to prevent HIV infection as well as services for those who already have HIV. Total estimated annual burden requested is 5,707 hours. U.S. who consent to an interview and abstraction of their medical records. As for the currently approved project, deidentified information would also be extracted from HIV case surveillance records for a dataset (referred to as the minimum dataset), which is used to assess non-response bias, for quality control, to improve the ability of MMP to monitor ongoing care and treatment of HIV-infected persons, and to make inferences from the MMP sample to HIV-diagnosed persons nationally. No other Federal agency collects such nationally representative populationbased information from HIV-diagnosed adults. The data are expected to have significant implications for policy, program development, and resource allocation at the state/local and national levels. The changes proposed in this request update the data collection system to meet prevailing information needs and enhance the value of MMP data, while remaining within the scope of the currently approved project purpose. The result is a 10% reduction in burden, or a reduction of 647 total burden hours annually. The reduction in burden was a result of revisions to the interview questionnaire that were made to improve coherence, boost the efficiency of the data collection, and increase the relevance and value of the information, which decreased the time of interview from 45 minutes to 40 minutes. 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 School Health Profiles Test-Retest Reliability Study—New—National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The purpose of this request is to obtain OMB approval to conduct the School Health Profiles Test-Retest Reliability Study to establish the reliability of the School Health Profiles (‘‘Profiles’’). Profiles is a system of school-based surveys conducted by state and local education and health agencies among school principals and lead health education teachers at the secondary school level to assess school health policies and practices related to health education, physical education and physical activity, tobacco use prevention, nutrition, school-based health services, family and community involvement in school health, and school health coordination. CDC seeks a one-year approval to conduct the School Health Profiles Test-Retest Reliability Study. Profiles surveys are administered widely. In 2018, 48 states, 21 large urban school districts, and two territories conducted School Health Profiles. Across all of these jurisdictions, questionnaires were completed by approximately 10,000 principals and by approximately 9,000 lead health education teachers. States and large urban school districts use Profiles as a data source for performance measures for two CDC cooperative agreements: CDC–RFA–PS18–1807, Promoting Adolescent Health Through School-Based HIV Prevention (PS18– 1807), and CDC–RFA–DP18–1801 Improving Student Health and Academic Achievement Through Nutrition, Physical Activity and the Management of Chronic Conditions in Schools (DP18–1801). No other surveillance system measures school health policies and programs nationwide. Between January and June of 2021, approximately 200 principals and 200 lead health education teachers from regular public secondary schools in the United States containing at least one of grades 6 through 12 will complete both a Time 1 and Time 2 Profiles questionnaire. Five questions will be added at the end of both the principal and lead health education teacher questionnaires at the Time 2 administration to gather data on why responses to the same questions may have changed or stayed the same between the two administrations. There are no costs to respondents except their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 686. OMB approval is requested for one year. Participation is voluntary.

Proposed Project

    School Health Profiles Test-Retest Reliability Study--New--National 
Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The purpose of this request is to obtain OMB approval to conduct 
the School Health Profiles Test-Retest Reliability Study to establish 
the reliability of the School Health Profiles (``Profiles''). Profiles 
is a system of school-based surveys conducted by state and local 
education and health agencies among school principals and lead health 
education teachers at the secondary school level to assess school 
health policies and practices related to health education, physical 
education and physical activity, tobacco use prevention, nutrition, 
school-based health services, family and community involvement in 
school health, and school health coordination. CDC seeks a one-year 
approval to conduct the School Health Profiles Test-Retest Reliability 
Study.
    Profiles surveys are administered widely. In 2018, 48 states, 21 
large urban school districts, and two territories conducted School 
Health Profiles. Across all of these jurisdictions, questionnaires were 
completed by approximately 10,000 principals and by approximately 9,000 
lead health education teachers. States and large urban school districts 
use Profiles as a data source for performance measures for two CDC 
cooperative agreements: CDC-RFA-PS18-1807, Promoting Adolescent Health 
Through School-Based HIV Prevention (PS18-1807), and CDC-RFA-DP18-1801 
Improving Student Health and Academic Achievement Through Nutrition, 
Physical Activity and the Management of Chronic Conditions in Schools 
(DP18-1801). No other surveillance system measures school health 
policies and programs nationwide.
    Between January and June of 2021, approximately 200 principals and 
200 lead health education teachers from regular public secondary 
schools in the United States containing at least one of grades 6 
through 12 will complete both a Time 1 and Time 2 Profiles 
questionnaire. Five questions will be added at the end of both the 
principal and lead health education teacher questionnaires at the Time 
2 administration to gather data on why responses to the same questions 
may have changed or stayed the same between the two administrations.
    There are no costs to respondents except their time. The total 
estimated annualized burden hours are 686. OMB approval is requested 
for one year. Participation is voluntary.
