DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)
Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
Periodically, the Health Resources and Services Administration
publishes abstracts of information collection requests under review by
the Office of Management and Budget. These data collection requirements
are authorized by section 241 of the PHS Act (42 USC 238j). To request
a copy of the clearance request submitted to OMB for review, call the
HRSA Reports Clearance Office on (301) 443-1129.
The following request has been submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget for review under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995:
Proposed Project: Healthy Schools, Healthy Communities Data System
(OMB No. 0915-0188)
Extension--This is a request for extension of approval of the
Healthy Schools Data System, which contains the annual reporting
requirements for the Healthy Schools, Healthy Communities grantees
funded by the Bureau of Primary Health Care (BPHC), HRSA. Authorizing
legislation is found in Pub. L. 104-299, Health Center Consolidation
Act of 1996, enacting Section 330 of the Public Health Service Act.
The BPHC collects data on its programs to ensure compliance with
legislative mandates and to report to Congress and policymakers on
program accomplishments. To meet these objectives with respect to the
Healthy Schools, Healthy Communities grant program, BPHC requires a
core set of information collected annually that is appropriate for
monitoring and evaluating performance and reporting on annual trends.
This data system, ``School Health Care Online (SHO)'', includes
information on such specific program elements as:
--Student patient characteristics (e.g., age, grade level, gender, pre-
existing conditions, disease chronicity, and insurance status.
--Service utilization (e.g., immunization rates, health screening,
referrals).
--Referrals to the Women, Infant and Children (WIC) nutritional program
and other social services providers.
--Information on provider productivity.
--Use of emergency rooms for non-emergency care.
There are to be no revisions to the data collection instruments.
The reporting burden has decreased slightly because reporting has
been changed from quarterly to annually. Estimates of annualized
reporting burden are as follows:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Number of Hours per Total burden
Type of report respondents response hours
