Proposed Project CDC Diabetes Prevention Recognition Program (DPRP) (OMB Control No. 0920–0909, Exp. 04/30/2024)— Revision—National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Additionally, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program (MDPP) expansion of CDC’s National DPP was announced in early 2016, when the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) determined that the Diabetes Prevention Program met the statutory criteria for inclusion in Medicare’s expanded list of health care services for beneficiaries (https://cmmi.my.site.com/ mdpp/). This was the first time a preventive service model from the CMS Innovation Center was expanded into Medicare. After extensive testing of this model in 17 sites across the U.S. in 2014–2016, CMS proposed the MDPP in sections 1102 and 1871 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1302 and 1395hh sec. 424.59), authorizing CDCrecognized organizations to prepare for enrollment as MDPP suppliers beginning in January 2018 in order to bill CMS for these services. Only organizations in good standing with the CDC DPRP are eligible as MDPP suppliers. CDC continues to work with CMS to support the MDPP. CDC requests an additional three years of OMB approval to continue collecting the information needed to administer the DPRP and provide information needed by CMS to support the MDPP benefit. Based on experience with the DPRP from 2011–2023, including data analysis and feedback from applicant organizations and internal and external partners, CDC plans to revise the DPRP Standards and the associated information collection. Key changes are a direct result of DPRP data analyses, recent literature reviews, and discussion with national DPP stakeholders, including those serving socially vulnerable populations. Key changes to the evaluation data collection instrument allow for the collection of participant zip codes (for E:\FR\FM\23APN1.SGM 23APN1 30377 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 79 / Tuesday, April 23, 2024 / Notices aggregate reporting only; not to be reported for each individual participant); an OMB-recommended sixpoint disability variable (not tied to CDC recognition and with a variable option of ‘Participant chose not to respond’); a health equity-related social determinants of health (SDOH) variable set (to assess whether there was a social needs assessment conducted; key SDOH issues identified; and whether any action was taken; not tied to CDC recognition); a Middle Eastern or North African write-in option within the current race/ethnicity variable; and two new options for the current payersource variable. Key changes to the application data collection instrument allow for a yes/no drop-down question asking if an organization’s zip code is in an area of high social vulnerability based on the Social Vulnerability Index, which would permit an in-person organization to be fast-tracked to Preliminary recognition status to allow the organization to apply to CMS to become an MDPP supplier; revisions to the combination delivery mode to include an option for in-person delivery with a distance learning component; and collection of a projected program startdate. During the period of this Revision, CDC estimates receipt of approximately 200 DPRP application forms per year from new organizations. The estimated burden per one-time application response is one hour (annualized to 200 hours). In addition, CDC estimates receipt of semi-annual evaluation data submissions from the same 200 additional organizations per year, estimated at two hours per response. The total estimated average annualized evaluation burden for new respondents is 2,400 hours. This includes an estimate of the time needed to extract and compile the required data records and fields from an existing electronic database, review the data, and enter the data via the DPRP Data Portal. CDC also has 1,500 currently recognized organizations that will continue to submit semi-annual evaluation data. These organizations are reflected in Supporting Statement B within this OMB revision. The estimated burden per response is moderate, since the information requested for CDC recognition is routinely collected by most organizations that deliver the National DPP lifestyle change program for their own internal evaluation and possible insurance reimbursement purposes, including the MDPP benefit. Participation in the DPRP is voluntary, data are de-identified, no personally identifiable information (PII) is collected by CDC, and there are no costs to respondents other than their time. CDC is requesting a three-year approval. The total estimated annualized burden is 7,800 hours.

0920-0909, Exp. 04/30/2024)--Revision--National Center for Chronic 
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    CDC's Division of Diabetes Translation (DDT) established and 
administers the National DPP's Diabetes Prevention Recognition Program 
(DPRP), which recognizes organizations that deliver a diabetes 
prevention program according to evidence-based requirements set forth 
in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Diabetes Prevention 
Recognition Program Standards and Operating Procedures (DPRP 
Standards). Additionally, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services 
(CMS) Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program (MDPP) expansion of CDC's 
National DPP was announced in early 2016, when the Secretary of Health 
and Human Services (HHS) determined that the Diabetes Prevention 
Program met the statutory criteria for inclusion in Medicare's expanded 
list of health care services for beneficiaries (https://cmmi.my.site.com/mdpp/). This was the first time a preventive service 
model from the CMS Innovation Center was expanded into Medicare. After 
extensive testing of this model in 17 sites across the U.S. in 2014-
2016, CMS proposed the MDPP in sections 1102 and 1871 of the Social 
Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1302 and 1395hh sec. 424.59), authorizing CDC-
recognized organizations to prepare for enrollment as MDPP suppliers 
beginning in January 2018 in order to bill CMS for these services. Only 
organizations in good standing with the CDC DPRP are eligible as MDPP 
suppliers. CDC continues to work with CMS to support the MDPP.
    CDC requests an additional three years of OMB approval to continue 
collecting the information needed to administer the DPRP and provide 
information needed by CMS to support the MDPP benefit. Based on 
experience with the DPRP from 2011-2023, including data analysis and 
feedback from applicant organizations and internal and external 
partners, CDC plans to revise the DPRP Standards and the associated 
information collection.
    Key changes are a direct result of DPRP data analyses, recent 
literature reviews, and discussion with national DPP stakeholders, 
including those serving socially vulnerable populations. Key changes to 
the evaluation data collection instrument allow for the collection of 
participant zip codes (for

aggregate reporting only; not to be reported for each individual 
participant); an OMB-recommended six-point disability variable (not 
tied to CDC recognition and with a variable option of `Participant 
chose not to respond'); a health equity-related social determinants of 
health (SDOH) variable set (to assess whether there was a social needs 
assessment conducted; key SDOH issues identified; and whether any 
action was taken; not tied to CDC recognition); a Middle Eastern or 
North African write-in option within the current race/ethnicity 
variable; and two new options for the current payersource variable.

a yes/no drop-down question asking if an organization's zip code is in 
an area of high social vulnerability based on the Social Vulnerability 
Index, which would permit an in-person organization to be fast-tracked 
to Preliminary recognition status to allow the organization to apply to 
CMS to become an MDPP supplier; revisions to the combination delivery 
mode to include an option for in-person delivery with a distance 
learning component; and collection of a projected program start-date.
    During the period of this Revision, CDC estimates receipt of 
approximately 200 DPRP application forms per year from new 
organizations. The estimated burden per one-time application response 
is one hour (annualized to 200 hours). In addition, CDC estimates 
receipt of semi-annual evaluation data submissions from the same 200 
additional organizations per year, estimated at two hours per response. 
The total estimated average annualized evaluation burden for new 
respondents is 2,400 hours. This includes an estimate of the time 
needed to extract and compile the required data records and fields from 
an existing electronic database, review the data, and enter the data
