Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled ‘‘School-Based
Active Surveillance (SBAS) of Myalgic
Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue
Syndrome (ME/CFS) Among
Schoolchildren: Phase-2 of the National
Roll-Out’’ to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for review and
approval. CDC previously published a
‘‘Proposed Data Collection Submitted
for Public Comment and
Recommendations’’ notice on July 22,
2022 to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies. CDC
received three comments related to the
previous notice. This notice serves to
allow an additional 30 days for public
and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) 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;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who

Background and Brief Description
Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic
fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), a complex,
chronic, debilitating multi-system
disease, affects an estimated 836,000 to
2.5 million persons in the United States.
However, about 90% of people with
ME/CFS have not received an official
diagnosis from a healthcare
professional. ME/CFS affects up to two

in 100 children and adolescents, which
often goes undiagnosed by healthcare
professionals.
Data on chronic conditions among
schoolchildren, such as asthma, has
been collected over the years, but there
has been little to no emphasis on ME/
CFS in the United States. Chronic
conditions among school-aged children
likely account for a high proportion of
school absenteeism and school
withdrawal. Conducting active
surveillance among students using
school nurses could expedite the
diagnosis and management of children
who present with symptoms commonly
seen in ME/CFS. This involves
educating school nurses about ME/CFS
and its related syndromes, how to best
approach parents and guardians when
suggesting the diagnosis, and how to
support the educational success of
students with chronic diseases.
National active surveillance in
schools (grades K–12) for ME/CFS
coupled with education of school nurses
about ME/CFS could help improve
measuring the burden of ME/CFS in
children and provide insights for future
plans to improve healthcare in children
suffering from ME/CFS and other
chronic health conditions. In the next
phase of this project, we will expand the
active surveillance project beyond the
pilot schools to include additional
schools in the pilot states, as well as in
other states. We plan to invite school
nurses serving grades K–12 to
participate. In this national rollout,
school nurses will continue to receive
education on data collection and ME/
CFS as well as technical assistance and
training on using the electronic data
collection reporting platform.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 631 annual burden hours.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time to participate.

regional offices, which have the
delegated authority to certify Medicare
facilities for participation, and by State
Medicaid agencies, which have
comparable authority under Medicaid.
