HHS concerning the organization,
operation, selection, and funding of

the PHS Act (42 U.S.C. 254b(g)).
NACMH meets twice each calendar
year, or at the discretion of the DFO in
consultation with the Chair.
Nominations: HRSA is requesting
nominations for two voting members to
serve as Special Government Employees
(SGEs) on NACMH. Specifically, HRSA
is requesting nominations for the
following positions: MHC board
member (one nominee); and MHC
Administrator/Provider (one nominee).
The board member nominee must be a
member or member-elect of a governing
board of an organization receiving
funding under section 330(g) of the PHS
Act. Additionally, the board member
nominee must be familiar with the
delivery of primary health care to
migratory and seasonal agricultural
workers (MSAWs) and their families.
The Administrator/Provider nominee
must be qualified by training and
experience in medical sciences or in the
administration of health programs for

NACMH members with the expertise
needed to fulfill the duties of the
Advisory Committee. The membership
requirements set-forth under section 217
of the PHS Act require that the NACMH
consist of 15 members, at least 12 of
whom shall be members of the
governing boards of MHCs, or other
entities assisted under section 330(g) of

to MSAWs. The remaining three
NACMH members shall be individuals
qualified by training and experience in
the medical sciences or in the
administration of health programs. New
members filling a vacancy occurring
prior to term expiration may serve only
for the remainder of such term.
Members may serve after term
expiration until their successors take
office, but no longer than 120 days.
Nominees must reside in the United
States, and international travel cannot
be funded.
Individuals selected for appointment
to the NACMH will be invited to serve
for up to 4 years. Members appointed as
SGEs receive a stipend and
reimbursement for per diem and travel
expenses incurred for attending
NACMH meetings and/or conducting
other business on behalf of the NACMH,
as authorized by 5 U.S.C. 5703 for
persons employed intermittently in
government service.
The following information must be
included in the package of materials
submitted for each individual
nominated for consideration: (1)
NACMH nomination form, which can be
requested by contacting the DFO at the
email provided above; (2) three letters of
reference; (3) a statement of any prior
service on the NACMH; and (4) a
current copy of the nominee’s resume.
Nomination packages may be submitted
directly by the individual being

HHS endeavors to ensure that
NACMH membership is balanced in
terms of points of view represented and
that individuals from a broad
representation of geographic areas,
gender, linguistically diverse ethnic and
minority groups, and individuals with
disabilities, are considered for
membership. Appointments shall be

considered for appointment will be
required to provide detailed information
regarding their financial holdings,
consultancies, and research grants or
contracts, if the applicant has any to
report. Disclosure of this information is
required for HRSA ethics officials to
determine whether there is a potential
conflict of interest between the SGE’s
public duties as a member of the
NACMH and their private interests,
including an appearance of a loss of
impartiality as defined by federal laws
and regulations, and to identify any

Based Dental Partnership Program
(CBDPP) under Part F of RWHAP offer
funding to accredited dental education
programs to support the education and

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 45 / Wednesday, March 8, 2023 / Notices
training of oral health providers in HIV
oral health care and reimbursement for
the provision of oral health services for
people eligible for the RWHAP.
Institutions eligible for RWHAP DRP
and CBDPP are accredited schools of
dentistry and other accredited dental
education programs, such as dental
hygiene programs or those sponsored by
a school of dentistry, a hospital, or a
public or private institution that offers
postdoctoral training in the specialties
of dentistry, advanced education in
general dentistry, or a dental general
practice residency. The RWHAP DRP
Application for the Notice of Funding
Opportunity includes the Dental
Services Report (DSR) that applicants
use to apply for funding of nonreimbursed costs incurred in providing
oral health care to patients with HIV
and to report annual program data.
Awards are authorized under section
2692(b) of the Public Health Service Act
(42 U.S.C. 300ff–111(b)). The DSR
collects data on program information,
client demographics, oral health
services, funding, and training. It also
requests applicants to provide narrative
descriptions of their services and
facilities, as well as their linkages and
how they collaborate with communitybased providers of oral health services.
Beginning with the 2022 DSR
submission, the DSR website provided
RWHAP DRP applicants and RWHAP
CBDPP recipients an easily accessible
and secure location to enter and submit
their aggregate DSR data annually. The
web-based platform is accessible by all
users and allows users to easily navigate
and enter their data. Users can oversee
their report submission status and will
no longer email their completed dataset
to HRSA. The implementation of the
DSR website has contributed to the
overall decrease in burden hours.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The primary purpose of
collecting this information annually is
to verify applicant eligibility and
determine reimbursement amounts for
DRP applicants, as well as to document
the program accomplishments of
CBDDP grant recipients. This
information also allows HRSA to learn
about (1) the extent of the involvement
of dental schools and programs in
treating patients with HIV, (2) the
number and characteristics of clients
who receive RWHAP supported oral
health services, (3) the types and
frequency of the provision of these
services, (4) the non-reimbursed costs of
oral health care provided to patients
with HIV, and (5) the scope of grant
recipients’ community-based
collaborations and training of providers.
In addition to meeting the goal of
accountability to Congress, clients,
community groups, and the general
public, information collected in the DSR
is critical for HRSA and for recipients to
help assess the status of existing HIVrelated health service delivery systems.
The information will provide the
measurement data for the HRSA budget
justifications on the following measures:
number of persons for whom a portion/
percentage of their unreimbursed oral
health costs were reimbursed and the
number of providers trained through the
RWHAP Part F Dental Reimbursement
and Community-Based Partnership
Programs.
Likely Respondents: Accredited
schools of dentistry and other
accredited dental education programs,
such as dental hygiene programs or
those sponsored by a school of
dentistry, a hospital, or a public or
private institution that offers
postdoctoral training in the specialties
of dentistry, advanced education in
general dentistry, or a dental general
practice residency.
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. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.

on (1) the necessity and utility 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.
