In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Medical Devices; Device Tracking—21 CFR Part 821 OMB Control Number 0910–0442— Extension Section 519(e)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 360i(e)(1)) provides that FDA may require by order that a manufacturer adopt a method for tracking a class II or III medical device, if the device meets one of the three following criteria: (1) the failure of the device would be reasonably likely to have serious adverse health consequences, (2) the device is intended to be implanted in the human body for more than 1 year (referred to as a ‘‘tracked implant’’), or (3) the device is life-sustaining or lifesupporting (referred to as a ‘‘tracked l/ s-l/s device’’) and is used outside a device user facility. Tracked device information is collected to facilitate identifying the current location of medical devices and patients possessing those devices, to the extent that patients permit the collection of identifying information. Manufacturers and FDA (where necessary) use the data to: (1) expedite the recall of distributed medical devices that are dangerous or defective and (2) facilitate the timely notification of patients or licensed practitioners of the risks associated with the medical device.

Upon evaluation of the information collection, we have made no adjustment to our currently approved burden estimate of 615,380 hours annually, based on 12 tracking orders. We attribute the attendant burden to the following activities: Under § 821.25(a), device manufacturers subject to FDA tracking orders must adopt a tracking method that can provide certain device, patient, and distributor information to FDA within 3 to 10 working days. Assuming one occurrence per year, we estimate it VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:35 Dec 04, 2023 Jkt 262001 would take a firm 20 hours to provide FDA with location data for all tracked devices and 56 hours to identify all patients and/or multiple distributors possessing tracked devices. Under § 821.25(d) manufacturers must notify FDA of distributor noncompliance with reporting requirements. Based on the number of audits manufacturers conduct annually, we estimate no more than one notice will be received in any year, and that it would take 1 hour per incident. Under § 821.30(c)(2), multiple distributors must provide data on PO 00000 Frm 00042 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 current users of tracked devices, current device locations, and other information, upon request from a manufacturer or FDA. Assuming one multiple distributor receives one request in a year from either a manufacturer or FDA, and that lists may be generated electronically, we estimate a burden of 1 hour to comply. Under § 821.30(d) distributors must verify data or make required records available for auditing, if a manufacturer provides a written request. We assume 5 percent of tracked devices distributed for estimating burden. Each audited E:\FR\FM\05DEN1.SGM 05DEN1 84339 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 232 / Tuesday, December 5, 2023 / Notices database entry prompts one distributor audit response.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: When submitting comments or requesting information, please include the ICR title for reference. Information Collection Request Title: Home Visiting Assessment of Implementation Quality Study: Exploring Family Voice and Leadership in Home Visiting, OMB No. 0915– xxxx—[NEW] Abstract: The Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program, authorized by Social Security Act, title V, section 511 (42 U.S.C. 711) and administered by HRSA in partnership with the Administration for Children and Families, supports voluntary, evidencebased home visiting services during pregnancy and for parents with young children up to kindergarten entry. States, tribal entities, and certain nonprofit organizations are eligible to receive funding from the MIECHV Program and have the flexibility to tailor the program to serve the specific needs of their communities. Funding recipients may subaward grant funds to local implementing agencies (LIAs) to provide home visiting services to eligible families in at-risk communities. Through the Home Visiting Assessment of Implementation Quality Study, HRSA aims to examine specific components of the Home Visiting Implementation Quality Conceptual Framework to inform strategies for implementing high quality home visiting programs. One of the three quality components the study will focus on is family voice and leadership (FVL), which involves including families in decisions related to program implementation. The requested information collection will provide a better understanding of how MIECHVfunded home visiting programs currently engage families and will provide preliminary information on how FVL may influence home visiting implementation and program quality. Data collection activities include an online survey, focus groups, and interviews. Need and Proposed Use of the Information: HRSA is seeking additional information about how the MIECHV Program engages and supports families in leadership opportunities to inform and improve programs. HRSA intends to use this information to identify actionable strategies that MIECHV awardees and LIAs could take to engage families meaningfully and effectively in program decisions and to ensure that families’ unique strengths, needs, cultures, and preferences drive service delivery. Likely Respondents: MIECHV Program awardees that are states, nonprofit organizations, and Tribes, LIA staff (program directors, coordinators, supervisors, and home visitors); and families who have been engaged in FVL activities by MIECHV-funded home visiting programs. 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.

manufacturer adopt a method for tracking a class II or III medical 
device, if the device meets one of the three following criteria: (1) 
the failure of the device would be reasonably likely to have serious 
adverse health consequences, (2) the device is intended to be implanted 
in the human body for more than 1 year (referred to as a ``tracked 
implant''), or (3) the device is life-sustaining or life-supporting 
(referred to as a ``tracked l/s-l/s device'') and is used outside a 
device user facility. Tracked device information is collected to 
facilitate identifying the current location of medical devices and 
patients possessing those devices, to the extent that patients permit 
the collection of identifying information. Manufacturers and FDA (where 
necessary) use the data to: (1) expedite the recall of distributed 
medical devices that are dangerous or defective and (2) facilitate the 
timely notification of patients or licensed practitioners of the risks 
associated with the medical device.

    Upon evaluation of the information collection, we have made no 
adjustment to our currently approved burden estimate of 615,380 hours 
annually, based on 12 tracking orders. We attribute the attendant 
burden to the following activities:
    Under Sec.  821.25(a), device manufacturers subject to FDA tracking 
orders must adopt a tracking method that can provide certain device, 
patient, and distributor information to FDA within 3 to 10 working 
days. Assuming one occurrence per year, we estimate it would take a 
firm 20 hours to provide FDA with location data for all tracked devices 
and 56 hours to identify all patients and/or multiple distributors 
possessing tracked devices.
    Under Sec.  821.25(d) manufacturers must notify FDA of distributor 
noncompliance with reporting requirements. Based on the number of 
audits manufacturers conduct annually, we estimate no more than one 
notice will be received in any year, and that it would take 1 hour per 
incident.
    Under Sec.  821.30(c)(2), multiple distributors must provide data 
on current users of tracked devices, current device locations, and 
other information, upon request from a manufacturer or FDA. Assuming 
one multiple distributor receives one request in a year from either a 
manufacturer or FDA, and that lists may be generated electronically, we 
estimate a burden of 1 hour to comply.

required records available for auditing, if a manufacturer provides a 
written request. We assume 5 percent of tracked devices distributed for 
estimating burden. Each audited

database entry prompts one distributor audit response. Because lists 
may be generated electronically, we estimate a burden of 1 hour to 
comply.
