Proposed Information Collection Activity; Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program Form 1: Demographic and Service Utilization Data (OMB #0970-0389), 66314-66315 [2021-25408]

Download as PDF 66314 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 222 / Monday, November 22, 2021 / Notices makes an advance determination of tax credit eligibility for individuals who enroll in QHP coverage through the Exchange and seek financial assistance. Using information available at the time of enrollment, the Exchange determines whether the individual meets the income and other requirements for advance payments and the amount of the advance payments that can be used to pay premiums. Advance payments are made periodically under section 1412 of the PPACA to the issuer of the QHP in which the individual enrolls. Section 1402 of the PPACA provides for the reduction of cost sharing for certain individuals enrolled in a QHP through an Exchange, and section 1412 of the PPACA provides for the advance payment of these reductions to issuers. The statute directs issuers to reduce cost sharing for essential health benefits for individuals with household incomes between 100 and 400 percent of the Federal poverty level (FPL) who are enrolled in a silver level QHP through an individual market Exchange and are eligible for advance payments of the premium tax credit. Until January 2016, HHS collected data required to meet these statutory requirements via a manual system in which issuers submitted data. HHS now has an automated system that does not require issuer data submission for FFE issuers. The data collection has been used by HHS to make payments or collect charges from SBE issuers under the following programs: advance payments of the premium tax credit, advanced cost-sharing reductions, and Exchange user fees. The workbook template was used to make payments in January 2014 and will continue for issuers in states transitioning to a State-Based Exchange, as may be required based on HHS’s operational progress.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Description: Section 511(h)(2)(A) of Title V of the Social Security Act created the MIECHV Program and authorizes the Secretary of HHS to award grants to Indian tribes (or a consortium of Indian tribes), tribal organizations, or urban Indian SUMMARY: organizations to conduct an early childhood home visiting program. The legislation set aside 3 percent of the total MIECHV program appropriation for grants to tribal entities. Tribal MIECHV grants, to the greatest extent practicable, are to be consistent with the requirements of the MIECHV grants to states and jurisdictions and include conducting a needs assessment and establishing quantifiable, measurable benchmarks. ACF’s OCC, in collaboration with the Health Resources and Services Administration, Maternal and Child Health Bureau, awards grants for the Tribal MIECHV Program. The Tribal MIECHV grant awards support 5-year cooperative agreements to conduct community needs assessments; plan for and implement high-quality, culturally relevant, evidence-based home visiting programs in at-risk tribal communities; and participate in research and evaluation activities to build the knowledge base on home visiting among Native populations. In Year 1 of the cooperative agreement, grantees must (1) conduct a comprehensive community needs and readiness assessment, and (2) develop a plan to respond to identified needs. Following each year that Tribal MIECHV grantees implement home visiting services, they must submit Form 1: Demographic and Service Utilization Data. The Form 1 data are used to help ACF better understand the population receiving services from Tribal MIECHV grantees and the degree to which they are using services, as well as better understand the Tribal MIECHV workforce. Overall, this information collection will provide valuable information to HHS that will guide understanding of the Tribal MIECHV Program and the provision of technical assistance to Tribal MIECHV Program grantees.

ACTION: Request for public comment. AGENCY: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is proposing a new data collection activity for Measuring Human Trafficking Prevalence in Construction: A Field Test of Multiple Estimation Methods. This study will examine the labor trafficking and other labor exploitation experiences among individuals who work in construction. The goal of this study is to advance knowledge of promising methods for estimating human trafficking prevalence by field-testing two methods of prevalence estimation within the construction industry in Houston, Texas. DATES: Comments due within 60 days of publication. In compliance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, ACF is soliciting public comment on the specific aspects of the information collection described above. SUMMARY: Copies of the proposed collection of information can be obtained and comments may be forwarded by emailing OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov. All requests should be identified by the title of the information collection. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Description: The purpose of the proposed data collection activity is to estimate the prevalence of labor trafficking among construction workers in one location using two different sampling and estimation strategies. The proposed information collection activity is a one-time survey with up to 4,200 adults who worked in the construction industry in the selected geographic location in the 24 months prior to data collection. The construction worker survey will be offered in English and Spanish to workers identified through the following two sampling strategies: (1) Probability sample (i.e., time location sample), and (2) a network sample. The survey instrument used for individuals recruited through the two different sampling strategies will be primarily the same and includes questions focused on the individuals’ experiences with labor exploitation and trafficking; employment histories, including work after a natural disaster; social networks; and demographic data. Respondents: English- and Spanishspeaking individuals who have worked in construction in Houston, Texas, in the 2 years prior to data collection will be invited to complete a survey.
