Announcement of the Fourth Meeting of the 2025 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee, 86348-86349 [2023-27011]

Download as PDF 86348 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 238 / Wednesday, December 13, 2023 / Notices Performance Conditions, and Information on the Volunteers Sponsored for Deeming. Specifically, the application includes the following proposed changes: • Volunteers Sponsored for Deeming: A new question has been added to better assist health centers sponsoring VHPs who perform activities during declared emergencies. The question asks if the submitted application relates to services provided during a declared emergency. • Credentialing and Privileging: Language has been added to ensure grantees understand the 2-year requirement for credentialing and privileging. 3. Application for Free Clinics To Sponsor Individuals for Deemed PHS Employment With Liability Protections Under the FTCA HRSA is proposing several changes to the content of the Applications for Free Clinics to Sponsor Individuals for Deemed PHS Employment with Liability Protections Under the FTCA, to be used for deeming sponsorship applications for CY 2024 and thereafter, to improve question clarity and clarify required documentation. Specifically, the application includes the following proposed changes: • In Section III, ‘‘Sponsoring Free Clinic Eligibility,’’ a note was added to clarify the non-profit status documentation requirements for free clinics; and • In Section VII, ‘‘Patient Visit Data,’’ clarifying language was added to ensure that free clinics provide precise and accurate data. Need and Proposed Use of the Information: Deeming applications must address certain specified criteria required by law to be approved, and FTCA application forms are critical to HRSA’s deeming determination process. The application submissions provide HRSA with the information essential to evaluate the application and make a deeming determination. Moreover, the application information is also used to determine whether a site visit is appropriate to assess issues relating to quality of care and to determine technical assistance needs. Likely Respondents: Respondents include Health Center Program funding recipients seeking deemed PHS employee status for purposes of eligibility for liability protections, including FTCA coverage; Health Center Program funding recipients that have been deemed as PHS employees and that seek to sponsor VHPs for deemed PHS employee status for purposes of eligibility for liability protections, including FTCA coverage; and free clinics that seek to sponsor individuals for deemed PHS employee status for purposes of eligibility for liability protections, including FTCA coverage. 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 summarized in the table below.

HRSA specifically requests comments on (1) the necessity and utility of the proposed information collection for the proper performance of the agency’s functions, (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden, (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected, and (4) the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology to minimize the information collection burden.
