1 There
are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.
2 Numbers have been rounded.
Because many labeling provisions
correspond to specific recordkeeping
requirements, we have accounted for
burden attendant to the provisions
enumerated in table 3 as third-party
disclosures. These figures reflect what
we believe to be the average burden
incurred by respondents to applicable
information collection activities.
Overall, the information collection
reflects changes and adjustments. For
efficiency of operations, we have
consolidated related information
collection currently approved under
OMB control numbers 0910–0577 and
0910–0740 pertaining to
recommendations found in Agency
guidance and discussed in this notice.
This results in an increase to the
information collection by 30,482 burden
hours annually. At the same time, we
have reduced our estimate of the total
responses by 53,143,810 annually. Upon
review, we believe we previously
double-counted burden ascribed to
disclosures provisions having accounted
for the same burden as that associated
with recordkeeping activities. We invite
comment on our estimates and these
assumptions.
Dated: July 2, 2021.

Acting Principal Associate Commissioner for
Policy.

Advanced Nursing Education (ANE)
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00059
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Program Specific Form OMB No. 0915–
0375—Revision.
Abstract: HRSA provides advanced
nursing education grants to educational
institutions to increase the supply,
distribution, quality of, and access to
advanced education nurses through the
ANE Programs. The ANE Programs are
authorized by Section 811 of the Public
Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 296j), as
amended. This clearance request is for
continued approval of the information
collection OMB No. 0915–0375 with
revisions.
This revision request includes a title
change from the Advanced Nursing
Education Workforce (ANEW) ProgramSpecific Data Collection Forms to ANE
Program Specific Form. This revision
also merges forms used by the ANEW
Program and adds several other new
forms from the ANE Programs,
including the Advanced Nursing
Education Nurse Practitioner Residency
(ANE–NPR) Program, Advanced
Nursing Education Nurse Practitioner
Residency Integration Program (ANE–
NPRIP), Nurse Anesthetist Traineeship
(NAT) Program, and Advanced Nursing
Education Sexual Assault Nurse
Examiners (ANE–SANE) Program. The
revision of the ANE Program Specific
Form incorporates elements from these
four programs (ANE–NPR, ANE–NPRIP,
NAT, and ANE–SANE) into the ANE
Program Specific Form.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: Section 811 of the Public
Health Service Act provides the
Secretary of HHS with the authority to
award grants to and enter into contracts
with eligible entities to meet the costs
of—(1) projects that support the
enhancement of advanced nursing
education and practice; and (2)
traineeships for individuals in advanced
nursing education programs. Under this
section, HRSA makes awards to entities
who train and support nurses
characterized as ‘‘advanced education
nurses.’’ In awarding such grants,
funding preference is given to
applicants with projects that will
E:\FR\FM\13JYN1.SGM
13JYN1
36757
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 131 / Tuesday, July 13, 2021 / Notices
substantially benefit rural or
underserved populations, or help meet
public health nursing needs in state or
local health departments; special
consideration is given to an eligible
entity that agrees to extend the award to
train advanced education nurses who
will practice in designated health
professional shortage areas.
The ANE Program Specific Form will
allow HRSA to effectively target funding
and measure the impact of the ANE
programs in meeting the legislative
intent and program goals of supporting
the enhancement of advanced nursing
education and creating opportunities for
individuals in advanced nursing
education programs to increase the
number of advanced practice nurses,
especially in rural and underserved
areas. The proposed updates to this
information collection will assist HRSA
in: streamlining the application
submission process across programs;
enabling an efficient award
determination process; and facilitating
HRSA’s ability to monitor the use of
funds and analyze program outcomes.
Additionally, collecting this data assists
HRSA in carrying out the most
impactful program and ensuring
resources are used responsibly.
More specifically, the changes include
the following:
• Form name change from ANEW to
ANE Program Specific Form.
• Additional instructions for
applicants are provided in each funding
opportunity.
• Modifications to both Table #1 and
Table #2:
Æ Revision to instructions to
incorporate elements for added
programs. Instructions about completion
of each table are included within the
electronic application materials.
Æ Table titles are rephrased for
clarity.
Æ New ‘‘Additional Specialty’’
column is created to yield a flexible data
collection option.
• Table #1 rows are numbered for
clarity and more rows are added to:
Æ Capture auto-tabulation, and
Æ Reformat/separate Statutory
Funding Preference data from Special
Consideration data.
• Table #2 has:
o ‘‘Students’’ reworded to
‘‘participants/trainees’’;
Æ One column labeled, ‘‘Budget
Year,’’ to identify the project budget
year;
Æ One column to create a space for
entering the sum for each row;
Æ Rows to more clearly indicate the
budget year for up to five years; and,
Æ One final row to create a space for
entering the total for each column.
• Frequency of data collection: Data
is collected (through the two tables)
once during the application period for
each funding announcement.
• Information determines:
Æ If applicants meet the funding
preference or special consideration for
funding; and
Æ Projected target and baseline
numbers of trainees/participants to be
supported throughout the project
period.
Likely Respondents: Likely
respondents will be current ANE
Programs awardees and new applicants
to the ANE Programs.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search
data sources; to complete and review
the collection of information; and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.
