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;
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; and
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Performance Monitoring of CDC’s
Core State Injury Prevention Program—
New—National Center for Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) seeks Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
approval to electronically collect
performance monitoring data, via a webbased Partners’ Portal, from recipients
PO 00000
Frm 00039
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

funded under the Core State Injury
Prevention Program cooperative
agreement, hereafter known as Core
SIPP. OMB approval is requested for
three years. The electronic collection of
information for program and
performance monitoring aligns with
three of CDC’s Data Modernization
Initiative Key Objectives to:
• Develop and implement cloudbased approaches for automating data
collection and supporting multidirectional data flows among STLT
partners and CDC.
• Reduce burden for data providers
and public health agencies.
• Ensure systems and services are
scalable, interoperable, and adaptable to
meet evolving needs.
Recipients will report progress and
activity information to CDC on an
annual schedule using a web-based
Partners’ Portal.
Information to be collected will
provide crucial data for program
performance monitoring and provide
CDC with the capacity to respond in a
timely manner to requests for
information about the program from the
Department of Health and Human
Services (DHHS), the White House,
Congress, and other sources.
Information to be collected will also
strengthen CDC’s ability to monitor
awardee progress, provide data-driven
technical assistance, and disseminate
the most current surveillance data on
unintentional and intentional injuries.
Monitoring the impact of populationbased strategies and identifying new
insights and innovative solutions to
health problems are two of the noted
public health activities that all public
health systems should undertake. For
NCIPC, these objectives cannot be
satisfied without the systematic
collection of data and information from
state health departments. The
information collection will enable the
accurate, reliable, uniform and timely
submission to NCIPC of each awardee’s
progress report and injury indicators,
including strategies and performance
measures. The information collection
plan proposed here will also generate a
variety of routine and customizable
reports. State-specific reports will allow
each awardee to summarize activities
and progress towards meeting strategies
and performance measure targets related
to the reduction and prevention of
unintentional and intentional injuries.
NCIPC will also have the capacity to
generate reports that describe activities
and health outcomes across multiple
recipients, which will enable better
reporting of trends and provision of
technical assistance through linking

partners across state health departments
and collaborating divisions within CDC.
The information collection and
reporting requirements have been
carefully designed to align with, and
support the specific goals and outcomes
outlined in the Core SIPP cooperative
agreement. The overarching goal of Core
SIPP is to strengthen the awardee’s
injury prevention programs and policies
and demonstrate impact in the
reduction of injury-related morbidity
and mortality. Although the data are
limited to the 23 recipients of the Core
SIPP NOFO, the results can be
generalizable and inform injury
prevention work. Moreover, it is
asserted that the results of the data
collection are vital to ensuring the Core
SIPPs efficient management. Results
will not only allow NCIPC staff to
provide data-driven technical assistance
to recipients, but also to assess patterns
across other NCIPC injury prevention
programs such as, Prescription Drug
Overdose Prevention for States and the
Injury Control Research Centers. In
addition, the data collection will inform
the continuous quality improvement
process and allow NCIPC staff to make
mid-course corrections and describe the
impact on health outcomes.
prevention and control strategies
implemented by recipients through the
development of journal articles, tools,
templates, and other injury prevention
resources/products.
Program recipients will use the
information collected to manage and
coordinate their activities and to
improve their efforts to prevent and
control injuries. The Partners’ Portal
allows recipients to fulfill their annual
reporting obligations efficiently by
employing user-friendly, easily
accessible web-based instruments to
collect necessary information for both
progress reports and continuation
applications including work plans. This
approach enables recipients to save
pertinent information from one
reporting period to the next and reduces
the administrative burden on the annual
continuation application and the
performance monitoring process.
Awardee program staff are able to
review the completeness of data needed
to generate required reports, enter basic
summary data for reports annually, and
finalize and save required reports for
upload into other reporting systems as
required.
The information collection
procedures will also allow NCIPC to
respond to inquiries from the HHS, the
White House, Congress and other
stakeholders about program activities
and their impact; as well as, work
towards CDCs overarching mission to
protect America from health, safety and
security threats, both foreign and in the
U.S. NCIPC will use the information
collected in the Partners’ Portal to
perform program activities to
accomplish the following objectives:
• Monitor each awardee’s progress
and identify facilitators and barriers to
program implementation and
achievement of outcomes. Monitoring
allows NCIPC to determine whether an
awardee is meeting performance goals,
to inform awardee continuous quality
improvements, and to inform the type of
intensity of CDC-provided technical
assistance to support attainment of their
performance measures.
• Identify trends in injury
surveillance data to inform state foci for
prevention and intervention strategies
as well as the production of relevant
reports, journal articles, and resources
for state health departments.
• Identify, translate, and disseminate
information about successful injury
