    Abstract: Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information

The Blue Button Connector is a Web site that helps consumers and 
patients find their own health information online from the entities 
that collect their information (i.e. hospitals, physicians, labs, 
immunization registries, state health information exchanges etc.). The 
Connector also helps developers build tools that respond to the 
readiness of the market. It also will provide links to apps and tools 
for consumers that use structured electronic health data.
    Likely Respondents: Any entity providing health services to 
patients and or collecting health information on consumers which 
includes but is not limited to: Hospitals, physicians, labs, 
immunization registries, and state health information exchanges. 
Respondents will also include application developers with the 
capability to consume health information in a structured format from a 
patient.
    Burden Statement: Organizations that would like to be listed on the 
Connector will fill out a 3-5 minute survey of nine questions. The 
survey will ask health data holding organizations to provide basic 
information about their access capabilities, reach, contact information 
and links to where patients could go to get their health data.
    The total annual burden hours estimated for this ICR are summarized 
in the table below.
