Bank (NPDB) and the forms to be used
in registering with, reporting
information to, and requesting
information from the NPDB.
Administrative forms are also included
to aid in monitoring compliance with
federal reporting and querying
requirements. Responsibility for NPDB
implementation and operation resides
in HRSA’s Bureau of Health Workforce.
The intent of the NPDB is to improve
the quality of health care by
encouraging entities such as hospitals,
state licensing boards, professional
societies, and other eligible entities 1
providing health care services to
identify and discipline those who
engage in unprofessional behavior, and
to restrict the ability of incompetent
health care practitioners, providers, or
suppliers to move from state to state
without disclosure or discovery of
previous damaging or incompetent
performance. It also serves as a fraud
and abuse clearinghouse for the
reporting and disclosing of certain final
adverse actions taken against health care
practitioners, providers, or suppliers by
health plans, federal agencies, and state
agencies (excluding settlements in
which no findings of liability have been
made). Users of the NPDB include
reporters (entities that are required to
submit reports) and queriers (entities
and individuals that are authorized to
request information).
The reporting forms, request for
information forms (query forms), and
administrative forms (used to monitor
compliance) are accessed, completed,
and submitted to the NPDB
electronically through the NPDB
website at https://www.npdb.hrsa.gov/.
All reporting and querying is performed
through the secure portal of this
website. This revision proposes changes
to improve navigation through the
secure portal.
1 ‘‘Other eligible entities’’ that participate in the
NPDB are defined in the provisions of Title IV,
Section 1921, Section 1128E, and implementing
regulations. In addition, a few federal agencies also
participate with the NPDB through federal
memorandums of understanding. Eligible entities
are responsible for complying with all reporting
and/or querying requirements that apply; some
entities may qualify as more than one type of
eligible entity. Each eligible entity must certify its
eligibility in order to report to the NPDB, query the
NPDB, or both. Information from the NPDB is
available only to those entities specified as eligible
in the statutes and regulations. Not all entities have
the same reporting requirements or level of query
access.

Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The NPDB acts primarily
as a flagging system; its principal
purpose is to facilitate comprehensive
review of practitioners’ professional
credentials and background.
Information is collected from, and
disseminated to, eligible entities
(entities that are entitled to query and/
or report to the NPDB as authorized in
Title 45 CFR part 60 of the Code of
Federal Regulations) on the following:
(1) medical malpractice payments, (2)
licensure actions taken by Boards of
Medical Examiners, (3) state licensure
and certification actions, (4) federal
licensure and certification actions, (5)
negative actions or findings taken by
peer review organizations or private
accreditation entities, (6) adverse
actions taken against clinical privileges,
(7) federal or state criminal convictions
related to the delivery of a health care
item or service, (8) civil judgments
related to the delivery of a health care
item or service, (9) exclusions from
participation in federal or state health
care programs, and (10) other
adjudicated actions or decisions. It is
intended for NPDB information to be
considered with other relevant
information in evaluating credentials of
health care practitioners, providers, and
suppliers.
Likely Respondents: Eligible entities
or individuals that are entitled to query
and/or report to the NPDB as authorized
in regulations found at 45 CFR part 60.
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

ZERO TO THREE National Center for Infant, Toddler and Families, Inc .....
Justification: The Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2023, included
additional funds that are being used to
support ITCs. HRSA understands
guidance provided in House Report
117–403 to support the award of
additional funds for the NRC to provide
implementation support and subject
matter expertise to ITC teams and to
advance national-level reach and impact
of the program, including via subaward
funds to local ITC teams who previously
received financial support and technical
assistance under HRSA–18–123, which
was in place in 2022. Both of these
objectives will be accomplished through
a supplement to the NRC.
The planned supplemental award to
the ITCP NRC aligns with the most
recent funding opportunity (HRSA–22–
074) and program purpose outlined in
the NOFO, which is ‘‘to continue and

expand research-based infant-toddler
court teams to change child welfare
practices and improve the early
developmental health and well-being of
infants, toddlers, and their families,’’
with primary goals to (1) build the
capacity of state/territorial/tribal and
local teams to implement the ITC
approach and lead aligned communitydriven efforts to prevent and respond to
child maltreatment; and (2) advance the
evidence and national reach, impact,
and sustainability of the ITC approach.
Additional expectations of the NRC in
HRSA–22–074 include that it will ‘‘lead
and coordinate improvements
nationwide to policy and practice in
child welfare and early childhood
systems’’ and ‘‘provide a range of
tailored supports to states and local sites
that implement the ITC approach’’ that

efforts’’ (e.g., funding awards under
HRSA–18–123). Additionally, under the
NOFO, the NRC advances the objective
of increasing the spread, scale, and
coordination of local ITC sites across
States, Territories, jurisdictions, and
Tribal nations.
HRSA will award approximately
$1.91 million to the current ITCP NRC
recipient. This funding will enhance
resource development, provision of
subject matter expertise, the building of
capacity to implement the ITC
approach, further develop national-level
partnerships, and provide subawards to
local court teams that were previously
funded under HRSA–18–123 (but not
under HRSA–22–074/073), which will
advance the national reach, impact, and
sustainability of ITC teams. In addition,
HRSA will provide a supplement of
approximately $650,000 to enable
