Proposed Project
Colorectal Cancer Control Program
(CRCCP) Monitoring Activities (OMB
Control No. 0920–1074)—
Reinstatement—National Center for
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description
CDC is requesting a Reinstatement of
OMB No. 0920–1074. Colorectal cancer
(CRC) is the second leading cause of
death from cancer in the United States
among cancers that affect both men and
women. There is substantial evidence
that CRC screening reduces the
incidence of and death from the disease.
Screening for CRC can detect disease
early when treatment is more effective,
and prevent cancer by finding and
removing precancerous polyps. Of
individuals diagnosed with early stage
CRC, more than 90% live five or more
years. To reduce CRC morbidity,
mortality, and associated costs, use of
CRC screening tests must be increased
among age-eligible adults with the
lowest CRC screening rates.
The purpose of the Colorectal Cancer
Control Program (CRCCP) is to partner
with health systems and their
individual primary care clinics to
implement evidence-based
interventions (EBIs) to increase CRC
screening among defined populations of
adults ages 50–75 that have CRC
screening rates lower than the national,
regional, or local rate. In 2020, CDC
issued the funding opportunity, Public
Health and Health System Partnerships
to Increase Colorectal Cancer Screening
in Clinical Settings (DP20–2002), a fiveyear cooperative agreement to increase
CRC screening among defined
populations of adults ages 50–75 that
have CRC screening rates lower than the
national, regional, or local rate. DP20–
2002 funds recipients to partner with
health systems and their primary care
clinics to implement multiple EBIs,
partner with organizations to support
implementation of EBIs in those clinics,
and collect high-quality clinic-level data
to monitor EBI implementation and
assess screening rate changes.
CDC proposes information collection
using three data collection tools: the
Annual Awardee Survey, Clinic-Level
Data Collection Instrument, and
Quarterly Program Update.
The Annual Awardee Survey is
administered once per year and
assesses: program management, clinic
readiness assessment activities, data
management, technical assistance (TA)
needs, partnerships, and the effect of
COVID–19 on CRC implementation. The
Clinic-Level Information Collection
Instrument is administered three
months following each program year
end and assesses: health system and
E:\FR\FM\29APN1.SGM
29APN1
33353
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 83 / Monday, April 29, 2024 / Notices
clinic characteristics; program reach;
CRC screening practices and outcomes;
clinics’ quality improvement and
monitoring activities; EBI
implementation, and additional factors
that affect EBI implementation over
time. The Quarterly Program Update is
administered in the month following
each program quarter (i.e., October,
January, April, July) and collects
standardized recipient-level information
on aspects of program management,
including: quarterly program
expenditures, current staff vacancies,
program successes and challenges,
current TA needs, and the effect of
COVID–19 on CRCCP implementation at
the recipient level. These data are
collected quarterly to facilitate rapid
reporting of programmatic information
to support CDC program consultants in
providing tailored and meaningful TA.
This information collection enables
CDC to gauge progress in meeting
CRCCP program goals and monitor
implementation activities, evaluate
outcomes, and identify recipients’ TA
needs. In addition, data collected will
inform program improvement and help
identify successful activities that need
to be maintained, replicated, or
expanded. OMB approval is requested
for three years. The total estimated
annualized burden is 760 hours. There
is no cost to respondents other than
their time to participate.
