Proposed Project U.S. National Authority for Containment of Poliovirus Data Collection Tools—New—Office of Readiness and Response (ORR), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The role of the National Authority for Containment (U.S. NAC) of Poliovirus is to ensure that the requirements established in the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Action Plan (GAP) III/IV standard are effectively implemented and maintained in facilities working with or storing infectious poliovirus or potentially infectious materials. Risk assessments following an incident are a critical component for adequate application of the GAP standard. To support risk assessment activities, The ‘‘Facility Incident Reporting Form for Poliovirus Release and Potential Exposure’’ and the ‘‘Facility Incident Reporting Form for Poliovirus Theft or Loss’’ forms were created for facilities to capture and submit incident information to the U.S. NAC. These forms will not only address the biosafety and biosecurity containment emergency elements of the GAP standard but will also inform the U.S. NAC risk assessments and thereby, guide CDC’s determination of the emergency response level and direction. The information collected in the ‘‘Personal Protective Equipment Survey for Laboratories’’ will assist the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), U.S. NAC and National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) with developing guidance and recommendations for PPE selection and use in support of poliovirus containment, as well as identify laboratory PPE commonly used to evaluate laboratory PPE performance characteristics in testing studies. Information collected in the ‘‘Global Action Plan (GAP) Poliovirus Containment Poliovirus-Essential Facility Assessment Checklist’’ will aid U.S. facilities in preparing for an audit to obtain a poliovirus certificate of containment. Data collected from this form will also collect additional information on poliovirus materials held by a U.S. facility, their work activities, and facility features. The ‘‘Poliovirus Containment Sampling Plan and Sanitation Assessment Form for Wastewater (WW) Systems Supporting a PoliovirusEssential Facility (PEF) in the United States’’ form will collect information to assess a poliovirus facility’s essential WW system, the primary safeguards to reduce and control the release of poliovirus from the facility. In addition, it will verify the safeguards of local WW utilities that receive WW from the PEF. OMB approval is sought for three years. The annualized time burden for this information collection is estimated to be 125 hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their time.

Proposed Project National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) (OMB Control No. 0920–0214, Exp. 12/31/2023)—Revision—National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Background and Brief Description Section 306 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C.), as amended, authorizes that the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), acting through NCHS, shall collect statistics on the extent and nature of illness and disability of the population of the United States. The annual National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) is a major source of general statistics on the health of the U.S. population and has been in the field continuously since 1957. This voluntary and confidential household-based VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:48 Nov 13, 2023 Jkt 262001 survey collects demographic and healthrelated information from a nationally representative sample of households and noninstitutionalized, civilian persons throughout the country. NHIS data have long been used by government, academic, and private researchers to evaluate both general health and specific issues, such as smoking, diabetes, health care coverage, and access to health care. The survey is also a leading source of data for the Congressionally mandated ‘‘Health US’’ and related publications, as well as the single most important source of statistics to track progress toward HHS health objectives. The NHIS sample adult and sample child questionnaires include annual core content that is scheduled to be fielded in the survey every year, rotating content that is fielded periodically, emerging content to address new topics of growing interest, and sponsored content that is fielded when external funding is available. Rotating sample adult and sample child core content on service utilization that was on the NHIS in 2023 will rotate off in 2024. Content on chronic pain and preventive services will also rotate off the sample adult core, and content on stressful life events will rotate off the sample child core. The 2024 sample adult rotating core will include items on health-related behaviors including smoking history and cessation, alcohol use, fatigue, physical activity, walking, doctor’s advice to exercise, and sleep—content previously fielded on the 2022 NHIS. It will also include content on allergies and other health conditions and psychological distress, content that was previously fielded in 2021. The 2024 sample child rotating core will include questions on allergies and other conditions and health-related behaviors including physical activity, neighborhood characteristics, sleep, screen time, and height and weight which were previously fielded in 2022. Sponsored content on vision and hearing will be removed from both the sample adult and sample child questionnaires. Sponsored content on arthritis will be removed from the sample adult questionnaire. Sponsored content on social support and stressful life events will be removed from the sample child questionnaire. Sponsored content on cancer control and immunizations will remain, but the specific questions will change. PO 00000 Frm 00095 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Sponsored cancer control content on breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer screening, family history of cancers, and genetic testing for cancer risk will be removed from the sample adult questionnaire. Sponsored cancer control content in the 2024 NHIS sample adult questionnaire will focus on cigarette smoking history, lung cancer screening, environment for walking, and sun safety, using similar questions that were used in the 2020 NHIS. Sponsored content for the 2024 NHIS sample adult and sample child questionnaire will also include questions about taste and smell that are similar to content included in the 2021 NHIS. Sponsored content on social support and loneliness will also be added to the 2024 NHIS sample adult questionnaire. Emerging content on everyday discrimination, heightened vigilance, and mental health has been removed from the sample adult questionnaire. Emerging content on GLP–1 injectables has been added to the sample adult questionnaire. Like in past years, and in accordance with the 1995 initiative to increase the integration of surveys within the DHHS, respondents to the 2021 NHIS will serve as the sampling frame for the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey conducted by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. A subsample of NHIS respondents and/or members of commercial survey panels may be identified to participate in short, webbased methodological and cognitive testing activities to evaluate the questionnaire and/or inform the development of new rotating and sponsored content using web and/or mail survey tools. In addition, subsamples of NHIS respondents may be recontacted by web, phone, or mail to ask follow-up questions on topics that are already included in the NHIS. The NHIS-Teen is a follow-back survey of adolescents that was fielded from 2021 to 2023 and may be fielded again in 2025 and 2026 if funding is available. The NHIS also includes content that is used to benchmark estimates and calibrate survey weights from probability-based online commercial survey panels as part of the NCHS Rapid Surveys System. CDC requests OMB clearance for three years, to collect data through 2026. The total estimated annualized burden is 39,192 hours. There is no cost to the respondents other than their time.

The purpose of the information collection is to implement and evaluate the effectiveness of mChoice, a clinic-based intervention designed to improve HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) adherence and persistence among young men who have sex with men (YMSM). The intervention targets both health providers and PrEP patients by providing evidence-based training for health providers to improve clinical knowledge and enhance provider communications with patients, and CleverCap, an electronic medication monitoring device and mobile phone application that provides health information and medication and appointment reminders for patients undergoing PrEP treatment. Data collected through this study will be used to evaluate the mChoice intervention for YMSM. The information collected in this study will be used to: (1) describe real-world PrEP use including factors influencing selection and change of PrEP regimens; (2) understand and describe barriers and facilitators impacting the implementation of new PrEP modalities in clinical practice; (3) evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the CleverCap mobile app among YMSM on PrEP; and (4) evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of implementing provider PrEP training. The study will be carried out in four clinics in two locations, New York City, NY (2), and Birmingham, AL (2). For the cohort, convenience and referral-based sampling techniques will be used to identify and recruit participants. Participants will be young men between the ages of 18 and 39 who have sex with men; are using or initiating PrEP; and live in the New York City or Birmingham, AL area. Recruitment controls will ensure enrollment of at least 50% Black or African American or Hispanic or Latino men. Cohort participants will be recruited using a combination of approaches including print media posted in clinic waiting rooms, social media, referral, and inperson outreach.

Proposed Project

    National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) (OMB Control No. 0920-0214, 
Exp. 12/31/2023)--Revision--National Center for Health Statistics 
(NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Section 306 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C.), as 
amended, authorizes that the Secretary of Health and Human Services 
(HHS), acting through NCHS, shall collect statistics on the extent and 
nature of illness and disability of the population of the United 
States. The annual National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) is a major 
source of general statistics on the health of the U.S. population and 
has been in the field continuously since 1957. This voluntary and 
confidential household-based survey collects demographic and health-
related information from a nationally representative sample of 
households and noninstitutionalized, civilian persons throughout the 
country. NHIS data have long been used by government, academic, and 
private researchers to evaluate both general health and specific 
issues, such as smoking, diabetes, health care coverage, and access to 
health care. The survey is also a leading source of data for the 
Congressionally mandated ``Health US'' and related publications, as 
well as the single most important source of statistics to track 
progress toward HHS health objectives.
    The NHIS sample adult and sample child questionnaires include 
annual core content that is scheduled to be fielded in the survey every 
year, rotating content that is fielded periodically, emerging content 
to address new topics of growing interest, and sponsored content that 
is fielded when external funding is available. Rotating sample adult 
and sample child core content on service utilization that was on the 
NHIS in 2023 will rotate off in 2024. Content on chronic pain and 
preventive services will also rotate off the sample adult core, and 
content on stressful life events will rotate off the sample child core. 
The 2024 sample adult rotating core will include items on health-
related behaviors including smoking history and cessation, alcohol use, 
fatigue, physical activity, walking, doctor's advice to exercise, and 
sleep--content previously fielded on the 2022 NHIS. It will also 
include content on allergies and other health conditions and 
psychological distress, content that was previously fielded in 2021. 
The 2024 sample child rotating core will include questions on allergies 
and other conditions and health-related behaviors including physical 
activity, neighborhood characteristics, sleep, screen time, and height 
and weight which were previously fielded in 2022. Sponsored content on 
vision and hearing will be removed from both the sample adult and 
sample child questionnaires. Sponsored content on arthritis will be 
removed from the sample adult questionnaire. Sponsored content on 
social support and stressful life events will be removed from the 
sample child questionnaire. Sponsored content on cancer control and 
immunizations will remain, but the specific questions will change. 
Sponsored cancer control content on breast, prostate, and colorectal 
cancer screening, family history of cancers, and genetic testing for 
cancer risk will be removed from the sample adult questionnaire. 
Sponsored cancer control content in the 2024 NHIS sample adult 
questionnaire will focus on cigarette smoking history, lung cancer 
screening, environment for walking, and sun safety, using similar 
questions that were used in the 2020 NHIS. Sponsored content for the 
2024 NHIS sample adult and sample child questionnaire will also include 
questions about taste and smell that are similar to content included in 
the 2021 NHIS. Sponsored content on social support and loneliness will 
also be added to the 2024 NHIS sample adult questionnaire. Emerging 
content on everyday discrimination, heightened vigilance, and mental 
health has been removed from the sample adult questionnaire. Emerging 
content on GLP-1 injectables has been added to the sample adult 
questionnaire.
    Like in past years, and in accordance with the 1995 initiative to 
increase the integration of surveys within the DHHS, respondents to the 
2021 NHIS will serve as the sampling frame for the Medical Expenditure 
Panel Survey conducted by the Agency for Healthcare Research and 
Quality. A subsample of NHIS respondents and/or members of commercial 
survey panels may be identified to participate in short, web-based 
methodological and cognitive testing activities to evaluate the 
questionnaire and/or inform the development of new rotating and 
sponsored content using web and/or mail survey tools. In addition, 
subsamples of NHIS respondents may be recontacted by web, phone, or 
mail to ask follow-up questions on topics that are already included in 
the NHIS. The NHIS-Teen is a follow-back survey of adolescents that was 
fielded from 2021 to 2023 and may be fielded again in 2025 and 2026 if 
funding is available. The NHIS also includes content that is used to 
benchmark estimates and calibrate survey weights from probability-based 
online commercial survey panels as part of the NCHS Rapid Surveys 
System.
    CDC requests OMB clearance for three years, to collect data through 
2026. The total estimated annualized burden is 39,192 hours. There is 
no cost to the respondents other than their time.
