Proposed Project 2025 and 2027 National Youth Risk Behavior Survey (OMB Control No. 0920–0493)—Reinstatement with Change—National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The purpose of this request is to obtain OMB approval for a Reinstatement with Change, of the data collection titled National Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), a school-based survey that has been conducted biennially since 1991. OMB approval for the 2021 YRBS and 2023 YRBS expired November 30, 2023 (OMB Control No. 0920–0493). CDC seeks a three-year approval to conduct the YRBS in Spring 2025 and Spring 2027. Changes incorporated into this Reinstatement request include the addition of a validation study of fruit and vegetable intake, the results of which will be used to inform changes to the 2027 YRBS questionnaire. Additional changes include an updated title for the information collection to accurately reflect the years in which the survey will be conducted and minor changes to the data collection instrument. The YRBS assesses priority health risk behaviors related to the major preventable causes of mortality, morbidity, and social problems among both youth and young adults in the United States. Data on health risk behaviors of adolescents are the focus of approximately 65 national health objectives in Healthy People 2030, an initiative of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The YRBS provides data to measure 14 Healthy People 2030 objectives. In addition, the YRBS can identify racial and ethnic disparities in health risk behaviors. No other national source of data measures as many of the Healthy People 2030 objectives addressing adolescent health risk behaviors as the YRBS. The data also will have significant implications for policy and program development for school health programs nationwide. In Spring 2025 and Spring 2027, the YRBS will be conducted among nationally representative samples of students attending public and private schools in grades 9–12, and in 2025, the validation study will be conducted among a convenience sample of schools and students. Information supporting the YRBS also will be collected from state-, district-, and school-level administrators and teachers. The table below reports the number of respondents annualized over the threeyear project period. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 4,389.

ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: This notice acknowledges the approval of an application from DNV Healthcare USA Inc. for continued CMS approval as a national accrediting organization for its psychiatric hospitals that wish to participate in the Medicare or Medicaid programs. DATES: This notice is applicable on July 30, 2024 through July 30, 2028. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joann Fitzell (410) 786–4280. Lillian Williams (410) 786–8636. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Number of respondents Type of respondent I. Background Under the Medicare program, eligible beneficiaries may receive covered services from a psychiatric hospital provided certain requirements established by the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (the Secretary) are met. Section 1861(f) of the Social Security Act (the Act) establishes distinct criteria for facilities seeking designation as a psychiatric hospital under Medicare. Regulations concerning provider agreements and supplier approval are at 42 CFR part 489 and those pertaining to VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:55 Jul 15, 2024 Jkt 262001 activities relating to the survey and certification of facilities are at 42 CFR part 488. The regulations at 42 CFR part 482 subpart E specify the minimum conditions that a psychiatric hospital must meet to participate in the Medicare program, the scope of covered services, and the conditions for Medicare payment for psychiatric hospitals. Generally, to enter into a provider agreement with the Medicare program, a psychiatric hospital must first be certified by a State Survey Agency as complying with the conditions or requirements set forth in part 482 subpart E of CMS regulations. Thereafter, the psychiatric hospital is subject to regular surveys by a State Survey Agency to determine whether it continues to meet the Medicare requirements. There is an alternative, however, to surveys by State agencies. Certification by a nationally recognized accreditation program can substitute for ongoing State review. Section 1865(a)(1) of the Act provides that, if a provider entity demonstrates through accreditation by an approved national accrediting organization (AO) that all applicable Medicare conditions are met or exceeded, we may treat the provider entity as having met those conditions, that is, we may ‘‘deem’’ the provider entity as having met the requirements. Accreditation by an AO is voluntary and is not required for Medicare participation. If an AO is recognized by the Secretary as having standards for accreditation that meet or exceed Medicare requirements, any provider entity accredited by the national accrediting body’s approved program may be deemed to meet the Medicare conditions. A national AO applying for approval of its accreditation program under part 488, subpart A, must provide CMS with reasonable assurance that the AO requires the accredited provider entities to meet requirements that are at least as stringent as the Medicare conditions. Our regulations concerning the approval of AOs are set forth at § 488.5. The regulations at § 488.5(e)(2)(i) require the AO to reapply PO 00000 Frm 00058 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Number of responses per respondent Average burden per response (in hr) 440 1 15/60 14 8045 200 200 1 1 1 1 15/60 30/60 10/60 30/60 for continued approval of its accreditation program every 6 years or sooner as determined by CMS. II. Application Approval Process Section 1865(a)(2) of the Act and CMS regulations at § 488.5 require that our findings concerning review and approval of an AO’s requirements consider, among other factors, the applying AO’s requirements for accreditation; survey procedures; resources for conducting required surveys; capacity to furnish information for use in enforcement activities; monitoring procedures for provider entities that were not in compliance with the conditions or requirements; and their ability to provide CMS with the necessary data for validation. Section 1865(a)(3)(A) of the Act provides a statutory timetable to ensure that our review of applications for CMSapproval of an accreditation program is conducted in a timely manner. The Act provides CMS 210 days after the date of receipt of a complete application, with any documentation necessary to make the determination, to complete our survey activities and application process. Within 60 days after receiving a complete application, CMS must publish a notice in the Federal Register that identifies the national accrediting body making the request, describes the request, and provides no less than a 30day public comment period. At the end of the 210-day period, CMS must publish a notice in the Federal Register approving or denying the application. III. Provisions of the Proposed Notice In the February 6, 2024 Federal Register (89 FR 8203), we published a proposed notice announcing DNV’s request for approval of its Medicare psychiatric hospital accreditation program. In the proposed notice, we detailed our evaluation criteria. Under section 1865(a)(2) of the Act and in our regulations at § 488.5, we conducted a review of DNV’s Medicare psychiatric hospital accreditation application in accordance with the criteria specified by E:\FR\FM\16JYN1.SGM 16JYN1

Proposed Project

    2025 and 2027 National Youth Risk Behavior Survey (OMB Control No. 
0920-0493)--Reinstatement with Change--National Center for Chronic 
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The purpose of this request is to obtain OMB approval for a 
Reinstatement with Change, of the data collection titled National Youth 
Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), a school-based survey that has been 
conducted biennially since 1991. OMB approval for the 2021 YRBS and 
2023 YRBS expired November 30, 2023 (OMB Control No. 0920-0493). CDC 
seeks a three-year approval to conduct the YRBS in Spring 2025 and 
Spring 2027. Changes incorporated into this Reinstatement request 
include the addition of a validation study of fruit and vegetable 
intake, the results of which will be used to inform changes to the 2027 
YRBS questionnaire. Additional changes include an updated title for the 
information collection to accurately reflect the years in which the 
survey will be conducted and minor changes to the data collection 
instrument.
    The YRBS assesses priority health risk behaviors related to the 
major preventable causes of mortality, morbidity, and social problems 
among both youth and young adults in the United States. Data on health 
risk behaviors of adolescents are the focus of approximately 65 
national health objectives in Healthy People 2030, an initiative of the 
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The YRBS provides 
data to measure 14 Healthy People 2030 objectives. In addition, the 
YRBS can identify racial and ethnic disparities in health risk 
behaviors. No other national source of data measures as many of the 
Healthy People 2030 objectives addressing adolescent health risk 
behaviors as the YRBS. The data also will have significant implications 
for policy and program development for school health programs 
nationwide.
    In Spring 2025 and Spring 2027, the YRBS will be conducted among 
nationally representative samples of students attending public and 
private schools in grades 9-12, and in 2025, the validation study will 
be conducted among a convenience sample of schools and students. 
Information supporting the YRBS also will be collected from state-, 
district-, and school-level administrators and teachers. The table 
below reports the number of respondents annualized over the three-year 
project period. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 4,389. 
There are no costs to respondents other than their time.
