collection burden.
Title of the Collection: ASPA COVID–
19 Public Education Campaign Market
Research.
Type of Collection: OMB #0990–0476.
The Office of the Assistant Secretary
for Public Affairs (ASPA), U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS), is requesting an
extension on a currently approved
collection that includes three
components: 1. COVID–19 Current
Events Tracker; 2. Foundational Focus
Groups; and 3. Copy Testing Surveys.
Together, these efforts support the
development and execution of the
COVID–19 Public Education Campaign.
The broad purpose of each effort is as
follows:
Current Events Tracker
The primary purpose of the COVID–
19 Current Events Tracker (CET) survey
is to continuously track key metrics of
importance to the Campaign, including
vaccine confidence, familiarity with and
trust in HHS, and the impact of external
events on key attitudes and behaviors.
Tracking Americans’ attitudes about,
perceptions of, and behavior toward the
COVID–19 pandemic will inform the
Campaign of key metrics around vaccine
confidence and uptake, as well as
towards vaccine messengers such as
HHS and key public health officials. It
will also inform changes in messaging
strategies necessary to effectively reach
the entire U.S. population or specific
subgroups.
The weekly tracking of this
information will be critical for the
Campaign’s ability to respond to shifting
events and attitudes in real-time,
helping guide the American public with
accurate information about the vaccine
rollout as well as on how to take
protective actions.
Foundational Focus Groups
ASPA is collecting information
through the COVID–19 Public Education
PO 00000
Frm 00034
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Campaign Foundational Focus Groups
to inform the Campaign about audience
risk knowledge, perceptions, current
behaviors, and barriers and motivators
to healthy behaviors (including COVID–
19 vaccination). Ultimately these focus
groups will provide in-depth insights
regarding information needed by
Campaign audiences as well as their
attitudes and behaviors related to
COVID–19 and the COVID–19 vaccines.
These will be used to inform the
development of Campaign messages and
strategy.
Copy Testing Surveys
Prior to placing Campaign
advertisements in market, ASPA will
conduct copy testing surveys to ensure
the final Campaign messages have the
intended effect on target attitudes and
behaviors. Copy testing surveys will be
conducted with sample members who
comprise the target audiences; these
surveys will assess perceived
effectiveness of the advertisements as
well as the effect of exposure to an ad
on key attitudes and behavioral
intentions. The results from these
surveys will be used internally by ASPA
to inform decisions on Campaign
messages and materials; for example, to
identify revisions to the materials or
determine which advertisement to move
to market.
Need and Proposed Use: In light of
the current COVID–19 crisis, this
information is needed given the impact
of the pandemic on the nation. The
Secretary of the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS) has
declared a public health emergency
effective January 27, 2020, under section
319 of the Public Health Service Act (42
U.S.C. 247d [1]) and renewed it
continually since its issuance (see links
to the determination here and here).
Additionally, in accordance with 5 CFR
1320.13, HHS previously requested
emergency submissions (sections 1320
(a)(2)(ii) and (2)(iii) of the federal
regulations.

Title of the Collection: Access,
Exchange and Use of Social
Determinants of Health Data in Clinical
Notes.
Type of Collection: New.
OMB No.: 0955–NEW—Office of the
National Coordinator for Health
Information Technology.
Abstract: The Department of Health
and Human Services, Office of the
Secretary, Office of the National
Coordinator for Health Information
Technology, have the access, exchange,
and use of electronic health
information; which is essential for
clinicians, and patients to better manage
their health care needs and share
information with other providers, and
with caregivers. Many hospitals and
physicians possess capabilities that
enable patients to view and download
their health information. Yet, additional
steps are needed to make health
information more accessible and useful
to both clinicians and patients.
The 21st Century Cures Act (Cures
Act) requires the Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS) and ONC to
improve the interoperability of health
information. ONC’s Cures Act final rule
also identifies important data elements
that should be made electronically
available and exchanged through the
use of health information technology
(IT). The United States Core Data for
Interoperability (USCDI) is a
standardized set of health data classes
and constituent data elements for
nationwide, interoperable health
information exchange. ONC will follow
a predictable, transparent, and
collaborative process to expand the
USCDI. Data reflecting social
determinants of health (SDOH)—the
conditions in which people live, learn,
work, and play—remains much more
limited across healthcare. There is a
growing recognition that by capturing
and accessing SDOH data during the
course of care, providers can more
easily address non-clinical factors, such
as food, housing, and transportation
insecurities, which can have a profound
impact on a person’s overall health.
Therefore, it is important to identify
SDOH data elements for potential
inclusion in the USCDI in the future.
