Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 70 / Wednesday, April 12, 2023 / Notices
ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
Law 110–417, as amended (41 U.S.C.
2313). As required by section 3010 of
Public Law 111–212, all information
posted in the designated integrity and
performance system on or after April 15,
2011, except past performance reviews
required for Federal procurement
contracts, will be publicly available.
Additionally, if applicable funding
recipients must be in compliance with
the audit requirements in 2 CFR 200,
subpart F.
iii. Program Evaluation
As a condition of grant award, SS4A
grant recipients may be required to
participate in an evaluation undertaken
by DOT, or another agency or partner.
The evaluation may take different forms
such as an implementation assessment
across grant recipients, an impact and/
or outcomes analysis of all or selected
sites within or across grant recipients, or
a benefit/cost analysis or assessment of
return on investment. The Department
may require applicants to collect data
elements to aid the evaluation and/or
use information available through other
reporting. As a part of the evaluation, as
a condition of award, grant recipients
must agree to: (1) make records available
to the evaluation contractor; (2) provide
access to program records, and any
other relevant documents to calculate
costs and benefits; (3) in the case of an
impact analysis, facilitate the access to
relevant information as requested; and
(4) follow evaluation procedures as
specified by the evaluation contractor or
DOT staff.
Recipients and sub-recipients are also
encouraged to incorporate program
evaluation including associated data
collection activities from the outset of
their program design and
implementation to meaningfully
document and measure the effectiveness
of their projects and strategies. Title I of
the Foundations for Evidence-Based
Policymaking Act of 2018 (Evidence
Act), Public Law 115–435 (2019) urges
Federal awarding agencies and Federal
assistance recipients and sub-recipients
to use program evaluation as a critical
tool to learn, to improve equitable
delivery, and to elevate program service
and delivery across the program
lifecycle. Evaluation means ‘‘an
assessment using systematic data
collection and analysis of one or more
programs, policies, and organizations
intended to assess their effectiveness
and efficiency’’ (codified at 5 U.S.C.
311). For grant recipients, evaluation
expenses are allowable costs (either as
direct or indirect), unless prohibited by
statute or regulation, and such expenses
may include the personnel and
equipment needed for data

infrastructure and expertise in data
analysis, performance, and evaluation (2
CFR 200).

DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS
AFFAIRS
Privacy Act of 1974; System of
Records
Veterans Health
Administration (VHA), Department of
Veterans Affairs (VA).
ACTION: Notice of a modified system of
records.
AGENCY:
Pursuant to the Privacy Act of
1974, notice is hereby given that the VA
is modifying the system of records
entitled, ‘‘National Patient DatabasesVA’’ (121VA10A7). VA provides health
care services to many of America’s
Veterans through the VHA. However,
the care of America’s Veterans extends
beyond VHA and into community
providers. During the course of
providing health care, VHA collects
medical and health information about
Veterans under their care. Similarly,
outside of VHA, community providers
also collect medical and health
information about Veterans under their
care. This SORN requires modification
to ensure the appropriate sharing of
Veterans’ medical or health information
for disease management and populationbased activities for improving health
outcomes.
SUMMARY:
Comments on this modified
system of records must be received no
later than 30 days after date of
publication in the Federal Register. If
no public comment is received during
the period allowed for comment or
unless otherwise published in the
Federal Register by VA, the modified
system of records will become effective
a minimum of 30 days after date of
publication in the Federal Register. If
VA receives public comments, VA shall
review the comments to determine
whether any changes to the notice are
necessary.

Officer, Department of Veterans Affairs,
810 Vermont Avenue NW, Washington,
DC 20420; telephone (704) 245–2492
(Note: This is not a toll-free number).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VA is
modifying the system of records by
revising the System Number; System
Location; System Manager; Purpose of
the System; Categories of Individuals
Covered by this System; Categories of
Records in the System; Records Source
Categories; Routine Uses of Records
Maintained in the System; Policies and
Practices for Storage of Records; Policies
and Practices for Retention and Disposal
of Records; Administrative, Technical
and Physical Safeguards; and Appendix
4.
The System Number will be changed
from 121VA10A7 to 121VA10 to reflect
the current VHA organizational routing
symbol.
The System Location will be updated
to include: information from these
records or copies of these records may
be maintained at VA Enterprise Cloud
Data Centers/Amazon Web Services,
1915 Terry Avenue, Seattle, WA 98101.
The System Manager is being updated
to replace ‘‘Assistant Deputy Under
Secretary for Informatics and
Information Governance (10P2)’’, with,
‘‘Chief Officer for Health Informatics
(105).’’
The Purpose of the System is being
modified to include: ‘‘to monitor the
performance outside the VA as relevant;
and to study, monitor and report
epidemiological trends and disease
incidence.’’ It is also being modified to
include: ‘‘The Public Health National
Program Office System data will be
available to VA personnel, Federal
agencies and State/Local Health
Departments for the monitoring of
infections, emerging pathogens, and
environmental issues of interest that
might reasonably affect the health of the
public.’’ This section will remove:
‘‘National Center for Patient Safety
Public Health System data will be
available to VHA clinicians to use for
the monitoring of health care-associated
infections and for the transmittal of data
to state/local health departments for bio
surveillance purposes.’’
Categories of Individuals Covered by
this System is being updated, number
(2) is being updated to reflect the
following: ‘‘Providing health care to
individuals for VHA.’’ Section (3) is also
being added and will state: ‘‘Whose data

including but not limited to the VA
Central Cancer Registry.’’
The Categories of Records in the
System is being updated to replace
24VA10P2 with 24VA10A7.
The Records Source Categories is
being updated to replace ‘‘VA Austin
Automation Center’’ with ‘‘Austin
Information Technology Center’’;
33VA113 with 33VA10; and
‘‘Healthcare Eligibility Records-VA’’
(89VA10NB) with ‘‘Income Verification
Records-VA’’ (89VA10)’’. ‘‘Veterans and
Beneficiaries Identification and Records
Location Subsystem-VA’’ (38VA23) is
being removed from this section since
this SORN was rescinded and is now
encompassed in ‘‘Compensation,
Pension, Education, and Vocational
Rehabilitation and Employment
Records-VA’’ (58VA21/22/28). This
section will also include the National
Cancer Institute (NCI) and/or their
designee, and a state cancer or tumor
registry.
The language in Routine Use #28 is
being updated. It previously reflected
the following language, ‘‘VA may
disclose relevant health care
information to the CDC and/or their
designee in response to its request or at
the initiation of VA, in connection with
disease-tracking, patient outcomes, biosurveillance, or other health information
required for program accountability.’’
Routine Use #28 will now read as
follows, ‘‘To the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) and/or
their designee, or other Federal and
state public health authorities in
response to its request or at the
initiation of VA, in connection with
disease-tracking, patient outcomes, biosurveillance or other health information
required for program accountability.’’
Routine Use #31 is being added to
state, ‘‘To the NCI and/or their designee,
and/or a state cancer or tumor registry
in response to its request or at the
initiation of VA for the purpose of
population-based activities to improve
health and disease management. VA
needs the ability to determine trends in
the rates of the incidence of cancer in
Veterans.’’
Policies and Practices for Storage of
Records is being updated to include
‘‘VA Enterprise Cloud.’’
Policies and Practices for Retention
and Disposal of Records is being
updated to remove General Records
Schedule 20, item 4. Item 4 provides for
deletion of data files when the agency
determines that the files are no longer
needed for administrative, legal, audit
or other operational purposes. This
section will now reflect the following,
Records in this system are retained and
disposed of in accordance with the
