Information Collection Request Title:
National Survey of Organ Donation
Attitudes and Practices (NSODAP) OMB
No. 0915–0290—Revision with changes.
Abstract: The overall purpose of this
study is to conduct an independent
multi-mode (web and telephone) survey
of public opinion regarding various
issues related to organ donation. The
survey will measure public opinion on
issues such as willingness to become an
organ donor, financial incentives for
donation, living donation, impediments
to donation, and level of public
knowledge about donation. Previous
NSODAPs were conducted during 1993,
2005, 2012, and 2019. Similar to the
2019 survey, the goal is to complete
10,000 interviews with adults (18 years
of age or older) nationwide. Specifically,
this will include 1,000 equal-probability
of selection method computer-assisted
telephone interviewing (CATI)
interviews, 1,000 ethnic oversamples
CATI interviews, and a supplemental
web panel of 8,000 respondents. The
final sample will include 1,000
interviews each with Black/African
Americans, Asians, Hispanics, and
Native Americans, and a statistically
sufficient sample for meaningful
comparisons across demographic levels
of age group, education, and income
groups. A total sample of 10,000 is
necessary to achieve sufficiently large
subgroups for statistical analysis across
demographic groups.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The Division of
Transplantation, within the Health
Systems Bureau of HRSA at the
Department of Health and Human
Services, is the primary federal entity
responsible for oversight of the solid
organ and blood stem cell transplant
PO 00000
Frm 00040

systems in the United States and for
initiatives to increase organ donor
registration and donation. Sponsorship
of a national survey on the American
public’s donation attitudes and
practices is one of the services that the
Division of Transplantation provides for
the larger donation community,
consistent with its legal authority to
establish a public education and
awareness program (section 377A of the
Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S.C.
274f–1).
Patients in need of organ
transplantation in the United States face
a longstanding critical shortage of
organs. Approximately 103,000
Americans were on the waiting list for
transplantation by the end of 2022, but
only 42,000 transplants were performed,
only meeting two-fifths of the national
need. While this represents an increase
in the number of transplants performed
in 2021, the organ shortage remains in
the United States. Understanding public
attitudes about organ donation and how
the attitudes change over time is critical
to addressing organ shortage through
public awareness and education efforts.
The information from this survey will
facilitate appropriate tailoring and
targeting of donation outreach messages
and strategies and provide an overall
assessment of the impact of previous
outreach messages and strategies. The
data will also inform the development
of policies related to organ donation and
transplantation.
Likely Respondents: A nationally
representative sample of adults over the
age of 18 with a higher number of
responses from populations of interest
such as racial-ethnic minorities,
including African American, Asian,
Native American, and Hispanic
respondents, as well as respondents of
all age groups and education levels.
Burden Statement: The modes of data
collection are web surveys and CATI
interviews and include both landline
and cell phones. Respondent burden is
minimized by having automatic data
entry either electronically by the
respondent answering the online survey
or by a trained CATI interviewer for a
telephone survey that includes no
additional requirements for
respondents. The survey will capture
only the minimum necessary
information for analysis and will take
only about 22 minutes of the
respondent’s time for the CATI survey
and 16 minutes for the web survey. The
questions are the same in both the CATI
and web surveys, but prior research
experience by the contractor has found
web surveys take 25 percent less time to
complete than the same survey
conducted via phone, because
E:\FR\FM\18JAN1.SGM
18JAN1
3410
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 12 / Thursday, January 18, 2024 / Notices
respondents can read and click faster
than a phone interviewer can read
survey questions.
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.
