Information Collection Request Title:
Health Center Patient Survey.
OMB No.: 0915–0368—Extension.
Abstract: The Health Center Program,
administered by HRSA, is authorized
under section 330 of the Public Health
Service Act. Health centers are
community-based and patient-directed
organizations that deliver affordable,
accessible, quality, and cost-effective
primary health care services to patients
regardless of their ability to pay. Nearly
1,400 health centers operate over 14,000
service delivery sites that provide
primary health care to more than 30
million people in every U.S. state, the
District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the
U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Pacific
Basin. In the past, HRSA has conducted
the Health Center Patient Survey
(HCPS), which surveys patients of
HRSA supported health centers. The
HCPS collects information about
sociodemographic characteristics,
health conditions, health behaviors,
access to and utilization of health care
services, and satisfaction with health
care received at HRSA supported health
centers. The renewal of the HCPS will
utilize the same modules from the 2022
HCPS (OMB #0915–0368). There is no

change to the current survey
instruments. Survey results come from
in-person, one-on-one interviews with
patients who are selected as
representative of the Health Center
Program patient population nationally.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The HCPS is unique
because it focuses on comprehensive,
nationally representative, individual
level data from the perspective of health
center patients. By investigating how
well HRSA supported health centers
meet health care needs of the medically
underserved and how patients perceive
their quality of care, the HCPS serves as
an empirically based resource to inform
HRSA policy, funding, and planning
decisions.
Likely Respondents: Staff and patients
at HRSA supported health centers.
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. Compared to the previous
HCPS, the estimated burden hours for
an individual respondent remains the
same in this renewal. The total annual
burden hours and number of survey
respondents is anticipated to remain the
same for the survey instruments in this
renewal. The total annual burden hours
estimated for this ICR are summarized
in the table below.
