Proposed Project
Contact Investigation Outcome
Reporting Forms (OMB Control No.
0920–0900, Exp. 8/31/2024)—
Revision—National Center for Emerging
and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases
(NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The goal of this information collection
is to obtain sufficient information on the
results of contact investigations carried
out by state, local, and territorial public
health professionals or maritime
medical crews to assess the impact of a
confirmed communicable disease of
public health concern in a traveler, both
in terms of further transmission of
disease and health outcomes for cases
and contacts. This data collection will
also determine if further public health
intervention is appropriate.
CDC sends an outcome reporting form
to state, local, and territorial health
departments and maritime operators
when an individual with a
communicable disease is reported and
there is sufficient evidence to suggest
that the individual was infectious
during travel and/or potentially posed a
public health risk to other travelers on
the same conveyance. The reporting
forms record information about the
exposed traveler’s location and
activities on air or maritime conveyance
or land border crossing, other potential
exposures, signs/symptoms that may
have occurred after their potential
exposure, prior history of vaccination or
disease, and other medical conditions
that could influence the risk of infection
or severity of illness. CDC has adjusted
the burden to account for changes after
the COVID–19 pandemic. Minor
adjustments were also made to some
forms to improve clarity, readability,
and public health relevance of the data
collected; these changes are not
expected to affect reporting burden.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 33 annualized burden hours.
There are no costs to respondents other
than their time to participate.

(CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Dental caries (tooth decay) is one of
the most common chronic diseases
among children in the United States and
can lead to pain, infection, and
diminished quality of life throughout
the lifespan. Dental sealants are a costeffective measure to prevent caries but
remain underutilized. To address states’
critical need for state-level oral health
surveillance data on dental caries and
sealants, the Association of State and
Territorial Dental Directors (ASTDD)
developed and released an oral health
screening survey protocol referred to as
the Basic Screening Survey (BSS) in
1999 in collaboration with the Ohio
Department of Health and with
technical assistance from the CDC’s
Division of Oral Health.
BSS is a non-invasive visual
observation of the mouth performed by
trained screeners including dental and
non-dental health professionals (e.g.,
dentists, hygienists, school nurses) and
is not duplicative of any other federal
collection. Though the National Health
and Nutrition Examination Survey
(NHANES) collects national data on oral
health status including dental caries and
sealants based on clinical examination it
is not designed to provide state-level
data. BSS is designed to be easy to
perform while being consistent and
aligned with the oral health Healthy
People objectives, which are based on
NHANES measures. BSS is the only data
source that provides state-representative
data on oral health status based on
clinical examination. BSS is also used to
monitor state progress toward key
national oral health objectives.
The BSS is a state-tailored survey
administered and conducted by
individual states. CDC has supported
some of the 50 states to build and
maintain their oral health surveillance
system and ASTDD to provide technical
assistance to states through state and
partner cooperative agreements since
2001. Conducting BSS for third graders
is a key component of that support.
The target populations include school
children in grades K–3 and children
enrolled in Head Start in 50 states and
Washington, DC. ASTDD and CDC
recommend that states conduct BSS at
minimum for third graders at least once
every five years. Individual states
PO 00000
Frm 00058
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
66725
determine how often to conduct BSS
and which grade or grades to target
based on their program needs and
available resources. Forty-seven states
have conducted BSS for children, and
all of the 47 conducted BSS with third
graders. Thirty-two states also have
conducted BSS in one or more other
grades (K–2) or in Head Start. CDC
estimates that approximately 34 states,
including 20 states currently funded by
CDC, will conduct one BSS for third
grade during the period for which this
approval is being sought.
State health departments administer
the survey by determining probability
samples, arranging logistics with
selected schools or Head Start sites,
gaining consent, obtaining demographic
data, training screeners, conducting the
oral health screening at schools or Head
Start sites. Screeners record four data
points either electronically or on a
paper form: (1) presence of treated
caries, (2) presence of untreated tooth
decay, (3) urgency of need for treatment,
and (4) presence of dental sealants on at
least one permanent molar tooth.
State programs enter, clean, and
analyze the data; de-identify it; and
respond to ASTDD’s annual email
request for state-aggregated prevalence
of dental caries and sealants. ASTDD
reviews the data to ensure that both
survey design and data meet specific
criteria before sending it to CDC for
publication on the CDC’s public-facing
Oral Health Data website (www.cdc.gov/
oralhealthdata).
BSS for children serves as a key state
oral health surveillance data source and
facilitates state capacity to (1) monitor
children’s oral health status, trends, and
disparities, and compare with other
states; (2) inform planning,
implementation and evaluation of
effective oral health programs and
policies; (3) measure state progress
toward Healthy People objectives; and
(4) educate the public and policy
makers regarding cross-cutting public
health programs. CDC also uses the data
to evaluate performance of CDC oral
health funding recipients.
The estimated total annualized
burden hours for the survey across the
34 states over the three years of this
request are 40,207 with an average of
1,183 per state. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.

Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), Division for Heart
Disease and Stroke Prevention (DHDSP),
requests an Extension of a previously
approved data collection for a period of
three years. The CDC is the primary
federal agency for protecting health and
promoting quality of life through the
prevention and control of disease,
injury, and disability. CDC is committed
to programs that reduce the health and
economic consequences of the leading
causes of death and disability, thereby

ensuring a long, productive, healthy life
for all people. Stroke remains a leading
cause of serious, long-term disability
and is the fifth leading cause of death
in the United States after heart disease,
cancer, chronic lower respiratory
diseases, and accidents. Estimates
indicate that approximately 795,000
suffer a first-ever or recurrent stroke
each year with more than 145,000
deaths annually. Although there have
been significant advances in preventing
and treating stroke, the rising
prevalence of heart disease, diabetes,
and obesity has increased the relative
risk for stroke, especially in African
American populations.
There is a critical need to improve
access to and quality of care for those
at highest risk for events and stroke
patients among the continuum of care,
particularly among high burden
populations. Coverdell-funded State
programs are in the forefront of
developing and implementing systemchange efforts to improve stroke systems
of care using strategies like linking and
using data, using team-based
approaches to coordinate stroke care,
and providing community resources to
reach the general populations and
specifically those at highest risk of
stroke events, and reduce disparities in
access to quality care for high burden
populations. When Congress directed
the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) to establish the Paul
Coverdell National Acute Stroke
Program (PCNASP) in 2001, CDC
intended to monitor trends in stroke and
stroke care, with the ultimate mission of
improving the quality of care for stroke
patients in the United States. Since
2021, CDC has funded and provided
technical assistance to thirteen
recipients to develop comprehensive
stroke systems of care. A comprehensive
system of care improves quality of care
by creating seamless transitions for
individuals experiencing stroke. In such
a system, pre-hospital providers, inhospital providers, and early posthospital providers coordinate patient
hand-offs and ensure continuity of care.
While PCNASP has existed since 2001,
