Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and Recommendations, 3546-3547 [2022-01263]

Download as PDF 3546 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 15 / Monday, January 24, 2022 / Notices NCHS seeks approval to collect data for the residential care community (RCC) and adult day services center (ADSC) survey components of the 6th National Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Study or NPALS (formerly known as the National Study of Long-Term Care Providers or NSLTCP). A two-year clearance is requested. The NPALS is designed to; (1) broaden NCHS’ ongoing coverage of paid, regulated long-term care (LTC) providers; (2) merge with existing administrative data on LTC providers and service users (i.e., Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) data on inpatient rehabilitation facilities and patients, long-term care hospitals and patients, nursing homes and residents, home health agencies and patients, and hospices and patients); (3) update data more frequently on LTC providers and service users for which nationally representative administrative data do not exist; and (4) enable comparisons across LTC sectors and monitor supply and use of these sectors over time. Community Living, and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality; associations, such as LeadingAge, National Center for Assisted Living, American Seniors Housing Association, Argentum, and National Adult Day Services Association; universities; foundations; and other private sector organizations such as the Alzheimer’s Association, the AARP Public Policy Institute, and the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. Expected burden from data collection for eligible cases is 60 minutes per respondent; 30 minutes for a provider questionnaire and 30 minutes for a services user questionnaire. Fifty respondents will have an additional 30 minutes of expected burden for data collection about EHR data elements. We calculated the burden based on a 100% response rate. Two-year clearance is requested to cover the collection of data. The burden for the collection is shown in the Table below. There is no cost to respondents other than their time to participate. Data will be collected from two types of LTC providers in the 50 states and the District of Columbia: 2,090 RCCs and 1,650 ADSCs. Data were collected in 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, and 2020. The data to be collected in 2022 include the basic characteristics, services, staffing, and practices of RCCs and ADSCs, and demographics, selected health conditions and health care utilization, physical functioning, and cognitive functioning of RCC residents and ADSC participants. The 2022 NPALS will include provider and services user questionnaires. Directors of 25 RCCs and 25 ADSCs that have adopted an EHR platform will complete an additional questionnaire to identify and confirm the data elements, any local customization, and export and transmission capabilities. Expected users of data from this collection effort include, but are not limited to; CDC, other Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) agencies, such as the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation, the Administration for ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Number of respondents Avg. burden per response (in hours) Total burden (in hours) Form name RCC Director/Designated Staff Member.

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 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Background and Brief Description 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. The CDC AR Isolate Bank Customer Satisfaction Survey will capture feedback regarding ease of use, product quality, and expectations for future panels from AR Isolate Bank customers. This survey comes six years after the AR Isolate Bank launched. Since the first satisfaction survey, the Bank’s customer base has more than tripled and represents an even more diverse set of users. Results may inform additional new features and/or isolates to meet these news users’ needs and may also provide insight for success stories. Results from the Year 7 survey will be compared to the previous year’s results to better determine how each sector is utilizing CDC’s isolates, assess how well the customer needs have been met, and establish areas for future improvement. Survey results from previous years have informed upgrades to the Bank’s web interface and have aided in streamlining the ordering process. Feedback will be used as CDC works to continually improve the Bank’s web interface and customer engagement process. Respondents will be those who have received orders from the AR Isolate Bank, and represent laboratorians and researchers at academic research institutions, device and drug manufacturers, hospitals and clinics, state and local health departments, and other U.S. federal agencies.

Background and Brief Description

    The CDC AR Isolate Bank Customer Satisfaction Survey will capture 
feedback regarding ease of use, product quality, and expectations for 
future panels from AR Isolate Bank customers. This survey comes six 
years after the AR Isolate Bank launched. Since the first satisfaction 
survey, the Bank's customer base has more than tripled and represents 
an even more diverse set of users. Results may inform additional new 
features and/or isolates to meet these news users' needs and may also 
provide insight for success stories. Results from the Year 7 survey 
will be compared to the previous year's results to better determine how 
each sector is utilizing CDC's isolates, assess how well the customer 
needs have been met, and establish areas for future improvement. Survey 
results from previous years have informed upgrades to the Bank's web 
interface and have aided in streamlining the ordering process. Feedback 
will be used as CDC works to continually improve the Bank's web 
interface and customer engagement process.
    Respondents will be those who have received orders from the AR 
Isolate Bank, and represent laboratorians and researchers at academic 
research institutions, device and drug manufacturers, hospitals and 
clinics, state and local health departments, and other U.S. federal 
agencies. CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 117 burden hours 
annually. There are no costs to respondents other than their time to
