Discretionary Grant Information System
(DGIS), OMB No. 0915–0298—Revision.
Abstract: Approval from OMB is
sought to implement minor revisions to
the MCHB Performance Measures for
DGIS. Most of these measures are
specific to certain types of programs and
are not required of all grantees. The
measures are categorized by domain
(Adolescent Health, Capacity Building,
Child Health, Children with Special
Health Care Needs, Lifecourse/
Crosscutting, Maternal/Women Health,
and Perinatal/Infant Health), in addition
to some program-specific measures.
Grant programs are assigned domains
based on their activities and individual
grantees respond to only a limited
number of performance measures that
are relevant to their specific program.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The performance data
collected through the DGIS serves
several purposes, including grantee
monitoring, program planning,
performance reporting, and the ability to
demonstrate alignment between MCHB
discretionary programs and the Title V
MCH Services Block Grant program.
HRSA is making the following changes
to the current OMB package for MCHB
DGIS to more closely align data
collection forms with current program
activities:
Removing the following existing
forms: Core 1 (Grant Impact), Capacity
Building 2 (Technical Assistance),
Capacity Building 7 (Direct Annual
Access to Maternal and Child Health
(MCH) Data), Training Form 13 (Diverse
Adolescent Involvement (LEAHspecific)), Financial Form 2 (Project
Funding Profile), and Financial Form 4
(Project Budget and Expenditures);
Adding the following new form:
Training Form 14 (Teleconsultation and
Training for Mental and Behavioral
Health) and Leadership, Education, and
Advancement in Undergraduate
Pathways Training Program Trainee
Information Form;
Revising the following existing forms:
F2F (Family to Family Form 1),
Financial Form 1 (MCHB Project Budget
Details), Financial Form 4 (new name:
MCH Discretionary Grant Project
Abstract), and MCH Training Program
Data Forms;
Revising and Renumbering the
following forms: Core 3 (Health Equity)
will become the new Core 1 (Health
Equity), Financial Form 3 (Budget
Details by Types of Individuals Served)
PO 00000
Frm 00036

will become the new Financial Form 2
(Budget Details by Types of Individuals
Served), Financial Form 5 (Number of
Individuals Served (Unduplicated)) will
become the new Financial Form 3
(Number of Individuals Served
(Unduplicated)), and Financial Form 6
(Project Abstract) will become the new
Financial Form 4 (Project Abstract); and
Renumbering the following forms:
Core 2 (Quality Improvement) will
become the new Capacity Building 4
(Quality Improvement), Capacity
Building 3 (Impact Measurement) will
become the new Capacity Building 2
(Impact Measurement), Capacity
Building 4 (Sustainability) will become
the new Capacity Building 3
(Sustainability), and Training 14
(Medium-Term Trainees Skill and
Knowledge (PPC-Specific)) will become
the new Training 13 (Medium-Term
Trainees Skill and Knowledge (PPCSpecific)).
Non-substantive revisions also
include updates to terminology, goals,
benchmark data sources, and
significance sections included in the
measures’ detail sheets. A performance
measure detail sheet defines and
describes each performance measure.
Forms and detail sheets showing the
proposed revisions are available upon
request.
This revision will facilitate more
efficient and accurate reporting of
information related to capacity building
activities, financial and demographic
data, and training activities.
Likely Respondents: The grantees for
MCHB Discretionary Grant 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.
