• Beginning with the 2023 UDS,
health centers will be able to submit
patient-level data in fulfillment of data
elements on Tables:
Æ Table PBZC (Patients by Zip Code)
Æ Table 3A (Patients by Age and Sex
Assigned at Birth)
Æ Table 3B (Demographic
Characteristics)
Æ Table 4 (Selected Characteristics)
Æ Table 6A (Selected Diagnoses and
Services Rendered)
Æ Table 6B (Quality of Care Measures)
Æ Table 7 (Health Outcomes and
Disparities
UDS+ Patent Level Reporting
leverages a methodological shift in the
process by which health centers submit
their annual UDS report while
maintaining historic UDS measures.
High-quality accessible data are critical
to strategically meeting the needs of
patients and identifying opportunities
for clinical process improvement. The
growth in health information technology
coupled with the increased adoption of
electronic health records has
transformed patient care delivery and
underscored the need for secure and
rapid exchange of health data between
disparate systems. Health Level Seven
International 10 developed Fast
Healthcare Interoperability Resources 11
(FHIR) to standardize the electronic
exchange of patient data across systems.
FHIR, which is the current gold
standard, has the flexibility to support
a variety of user needs and enhances
interoperability by transmitting health
data rapidly and more securely than
ever before. It is important for the
collection of UDS data to align with
interoperability standards and reporting
requirements across HHS and the
healthcare industry. Leveraging FHIR to
collect UDS patient-level data will
improve data granularity, allow for the
development of robust patient
management programs, and improve
equitable access to high-quality, costeffective primary care services.
This electronic reporting mechanism
will reduce reliance on manual data
entry to populate the annual UDS
report, in turn yielding a reduction in
reporting effort burden, and will greatly
increase the analytical value of UDS
data for informing policy and program
decision-making.
Likely Respondents: Likely
respondents will include Health Center
Program award recipients, Health Center
Program look-alikes, and Nurse
Education, Practice, Quality and
Retention Program awardees funded

under the practice priority areas of
section 831(b) of the PHS Act.
Burden Statement: Burden includes
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 use technology and systems for the
purpose of collecting, validating and
verifying information, processing and
maintaining information, disclosing and
providing information. It also accounts
for time to train personnel, respond to
a collection of information, search data
sources, complete and review the
collection of information, and transmit
or otherwise disclose the information. It
will also include testing information
necessary to support the UDS Test
Cooperative (UTC). No more than three
tests will be conducted each calendar
year and no more than one hundred
health centers will participate in one
test. Participation is voluntary and will
not affect their funding status. This
sample size is sufficient to conduct a
technical test and determine if the
innovation should be scaled across the
UDS. The total annual burden hours
estimated for this ICR are summarized
in the forthcoming table.
HRSA specifically requests comments
on: (1) the necessity and feasibility of
the proposed information collection for
the proper performance of the agency’s
functions; (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4) the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology to minimize the information
collection burden.

HRSA to capture awardee-level and
aggregate data that illustrate the impact
and scope of federal funding along with
assessing these efforts. The measures
cover the principal topic areas of
interest, including (a) population
demographics; (b) access to health care;
(c) cost savings and cost-effectiveness;
and (d) clinical outcomes.
