Information Collection Request Title:
Nurse Corps Loan Repayment Program
(Nurse Corps LRP), OMB No. 0915–
0140—Extension.
Abstract: The Nurse Corps LRP assists
in the recruitment and retention of
professional Registered Nurses (RNs),
including Advanced Practice Registered
Nurses (APRNs), by decreasing the
financial barriers associated with
pursuing a nursing education. RNs in
this instance include APRNs (e.g., nurse
practitioners, certified registered nurse
anesthetists, certified nurse-midwives,
and clinical nurse specialists) dedicated
to working at eligible health care
facilities with a critical shortage of
nurses (i.e., a Critical Shortage Facility)
or working as nurse faculty in eligible,
accredited schools of nursing. The
Nurse Corps LRP provides loan
repayment assistance to these nurses to
repay a portion of their qualifying
educational loans in exchange for fulltime service at a public or private
DATES:
Critical Shortage Facility or in an
eligible, accredited school of nursing.
A 60-day notice published in the
Federal Register on September 29, 2022,
vol. 87, No. 188; pp. 59106–07. There
were no public comments.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: Individuals must submit
an application in order to participate in
the program. The application asks for
personal, professional, educational, and
financial information required to
determine the applicant’s eligibility to
participate in the Nurse Corps LRP. This
information collection is used by the
Nurse Corps program to make award
decisions about Nurse Corps LRP
applicants and to monitor a
participant’s compliance with the
program’s service requirements. The
Nurse Corps LRP is requesting an
extension and is seeking to use the
previously approved forms.
Likely Respondents: Professional RNs
or APRNs who are interested in
participating in the Nurse Corps LRP,
and official representatives at their
service sites.
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 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.
