Proposed Project: Uniform Data System (OMB No. 0915-0193)—Revision
This is a request for a revision of approval of the Uniform Data System (UDS), which contains the annual reporting requirements for the cluster of primary care grantees funded by the Bureau of Primary Health Care (BPHC), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). Authorizing Legislation is Section 330 of the Public Health Service Act. The UDS includes reporting requirements for grantees of the following primary care programs: Community Health Centers, Migrant Health Centers, Health Care for the Homeless, Outreach and Primary Health Services for Homeless Children and Public Housing Primary Care, and Healthy Schools Healthy Communities. BPHC collects data on its programs to ensure compliance with legislative mandates and to report to Congress and policy makers on program accomplishments. To meet these objectives, BPHC requires a core set of information collected annually that is appropriate for monitoring and evaluating performance and reporting on annual trends. The UDS includes two components: the Universal Report, completed by all grantees, provides data on services, staffing, and financing; and the Grant Report, completed by grantees funded under the Homeless, Public Housing Program or Healthy Schools Healthy Communities as well as one of the other programs, provides data on characteristics of users whose services fall within the scope of the Homeless, Public Housing Program, Healthy Schools Healthy Communities grant. Grantees are also asked to provide information on the charges, collections, bad debt write off and contractual disallowances by payor sources (Medicaid, Medicare, self pay and private insurance).
