Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request, 41631-41632 [2023-13656]

Download as PDF 41631 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 122 / Tuesday, June 27, 2023 / Notices funded 33 state and local public health programs (funded SLHD). These recipients were selected through a competitive objective review process and are managed as CDC cooperative agreements. Awards are for five years and are renewed through an Annual Performance Report (APR)/Continuation Application. The Tracking Program collects data from recipients about their activities and progress for the purposes of program evaluation and monitoring (hereafter referenced as program data). Environmental public health tracking is the ongoing collection, integration, analysis, and dissemination of health, exposure, and hazard data (hereinafter referenced as Tracking Network data) to inform public health actions that protect the population from harm resulting from exposure to environmental contaminants. The Tracking Network provides data from existing health, exposure, and hazard surveillance systems and supports ongoing efforts within the public health and environmental sectors to improve data collection, accessibility, and dissemination as well as analytic and response capacity. Data that were previously collected for different purposes and stored in separate state and local systems are now available in a nationally standardized format allowing programs to begin bridging the gap between health and the environment. CDC is requesting approval for an increase of seven additional annual respondents from the 30 approved under the previous ICR and five-year NOFO (No. CDC–RFA–EH17–1702). In spring of 2022, under the new five-year NOFO (No. CDC–RFA–EH22–2202), the CDC’s Tracking Program funded 33 state and local public health programs (funded SLHD). CDC is now requesting approval for up to 37 annual respondents. This number reflects the current 33 SLHD respondents plus four to allow for future funding of new SLHD or to collect voluntary responses from unfunded SLHD. Data from recipients or other SLHD are submitted annually following standardized procedures. Tracking network data submitted annually by recipients and other SLHD to the Tracking Program include seven datasets and the metadata form, specifically (1) birth defects prevalence, (2) childhood blood lead levels, (3) drinking water monitoring, (4) emergency department visits, (5) hospitalizations, (6) radon testing, (7) biomonitoring, and (8) metadata. The Tracking Program will begin using Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) for its Electronic Data Capture System (EDCS) needs, which is an easyto-use, free software tool that is useful for programmatic deliverable management and data capture. Using an EDCS significantly reduces the burden by optimizing the data capture method to eliminate the need for personnel to complete manual data cleaning and organization before using data for analysis and evaluation upon submission. Based on the above changes, CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 14,384 annualized burden hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their time to participate.

other aspect of this collection of information, including the necessity

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: William Parham at (410) 786-4669.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 
(PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), federal agencies must obtain approval from 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of 
information they conduct or sponsor. The term ``collection of 
information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) and 
includes agency requests or requirements that members of the public 
submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a third party. 
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires 
federal agencies to publish a 30-day notice in the Federal Register 
concerning each proposed collection of information, including each 
proposed extension or reinstatement of an existing collection of 
information, before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To 
comply with this requirement, CMS is publishing this notice that 
summarizes the following proposed collection(s) of information for 
public comment:
    1. Type of Information Collection Request: Extension of a currently 
approved collection; Title of Information Collection: Collection 
Requirements for Compendia for Determination of Medically-accepted 
Indications for Off-label Uses of Drugs and Biologicals in an Anti-
cancer Chemotherapeutic Regimen; Use: Section 182(b) of the Medicare 
Improvement of Patients and Providers Act (MIPPA) amended section 
1861(t)(2)(B) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395x(t)(2)(B)) by 
adding at the end the following new sentence: `On and after January 1, 
2010, no compendia may be included on the list of compendia under this 
subparagraph unless the compendia has a publicly transparent process 
for evaluating therapies and for identifying potential conflicts of 
interest.' We believe that the implementation of this statutory 
provision that compendia have a ``publicly transparent process for 
evaluating therapies and for identifying potential conflicts of 
interests'' is best accomplished by amending 42 CFR 414.930 to include 
the MIPPA requirements and by defining the key components of publicly 
transparent processes for evaluating therapies and for identifying 
potential conflicts of interests.
    All currently listed compendia will be required to comply with 
these provisions, as of January 1, 2010, to remain on the list of 
recognized compendia. In addition, any compendium that is the subject 
of a future request for inclusion on the list of recognized compendia 
will be required to comply with these provisions. No compendium can be 
on the list if it does not fully meet the standard described in section 
1861(t)(2)(B) of the Act, as revised by section 182(b) of the MIPPA. 
Form Number: CMS-10302 (OMB control number: 0938-1078); Frequency: 
Annually; Affected Public: Business and other for-profits and Not-for-
profit institutions; Number of Respondents: 845; Total Annual 
Responses: 900; Total Annual Hours: 5,135. (For policy questions 
regarding this collection contact Sarah Fulton at 410-786-2749.)
