    Proposed Project: Uniform Data Set (UDS)--Revision--OMB No. 0990-
0275--Office of Public Health Science (OPHS)--Office of Minority 
Health.
    Abstract: The Office of Minority Health is requesting an approval 
on a revised collection for three (3) years for a currently approved 
collection using the OMB approved Uniform Data Set (OMB No. 0990-0275), 
the tool used by OMH to collect program management and performance data 
for all OMH-funded projects. Respondents for this data collection 
include the project directors leading OMH-funded projects. Affected 
public includes not-for-profit institutions and State, Local, or Tribal 
Governments. The clearance is also to make modifications to the UDS 
tool, which includes the exclusion of a large number of data elements 
which significantly reduces reporting burden for grantees, a change in 
the name of the data collection tool from the UDS to the Performance 
Data System (PDS), and to increase the frequency of reporting from 
semi-annual to quarterly reporting. The modifications are intended to 
evolve the UDS into a system that improves OMH's ability to comply with 
Federal reporting requirements and monitor and evaluate performance by 
enabling the efficient collection of more performance-oriented data 
which are tied to OMH-wide performance reporting needs.
