Proposed Project

    Automated Management Information System (MIS) for Diabetes 
Prevention and Control Programs (OMB No. 0920-0479, expiration date 5/
31/2010)--Revision--National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and 
Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death in the United 
States. To reduce the burden of this disease, the Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC) established the national Diabetes Control 
Program, which is administered through CDC's Division of Diabetes 
Translation (DDT). The national program provides support for health 
departments in states and Territories to design, implement and evaluate 
diabetes prevention and control strategies through State-based Diabetes 
Prevention and Control Programs (DPCPs).
    CDC currently collects information from DCPCs through a Web-based 
Management Information System (MIS). The information collected supports 
DDT's broader mission of reducing the burden of diabetes by enabling 
DDT staff to more effectively identify the strengths and weaknesses of 
individual DPCPs, and to disseminate information related to successful 
public health interventions. The information is used to monitor 
compliance with cooperative agreement requirements, evaluate progress 
in achieving program-specific goals, and identify needs for training 
and technical assistance.
    CDC plans to implement a number of changes. Some MIS data elements 
will be modified to reflect changes in the reporting requirements for 
DCPCs, and to harmonize the progress and performance indicators for 
DCPCs with indicators being implemented for other CDC-funded programs. 
In addition, the electronic MIS is being restructured to improve 
usability and to reduce burden to respondents through improved 
organization and increased use of existing data resources. CDC also 
requests OMB approval to incorporate the term ``Prevention'' into the 
title of the clearance, in recognition of the increased emphasis on 
diabetes prevention in the work plans of state-based DCPCs.
    Respondents will be 53 DCPCs in States, the District of Columbia, 
the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico. The information collection will no 
longer include the Pacific Islands jurisdictions, which in the future 
will be funded through a separate mechanism with different reporting 
requirements.
    Once per year, each DCPC will submit an Annual Report to CDC that 
includes information about its Program, Resources, Partners, Budget, 
and Planning activities. In addition, each DCPC will submit a Semi-
Annual Report twice per year that includes information about the 
Objectives described in its Action Plan, and related Activities.
    Approval to collect information for three additional years is 
requested. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The 
total estimated burden hours are 4,452.
