Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information 
collection request titled [Well-Integrated Screening and Evaluation for 
Women Across the Nation (WISEWOMAN) program] to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. CDC previously 
published a ``Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and 
Recommendations'' notice on December 26, 2018 to obtain comments from 
the public and affected agencies. CDC

[[Page 26108]]

received one comment related to the previous notice and it was 
acknowledged by CDC. This notice serves to allow an additional 30 days 
for public and affected agency comments.
    CDC will accept all comments for this proposed information 
collection project. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly 
interested in comments that:
    (a) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    (b) Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    (c) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected;
    (d) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including, through the use of appropriate 
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting 
electronic submission of responses; and
    (e) Assess information collection costs.
    To request additional information on the proposed project or to 
obtain a copy of the information collection plan and instruments, call 
(404) 639-7570 or send an email to [email protected]. Direct written comments 
and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in this notice to the 
Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th 
Street NW, Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202) 395-5806. Provide 
written comments within 30 days of notice publication.

Proposed Project

    Well-Integrated Screening and Evaluation for Women Across the 
Nation (OMB Control No. 0920-0612, Expiration date 12/31/2018)--
Reinstatement--NCCDPHP, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The WISEWOMAN program sponsored by the CDC, provides services to 
low income, uninsured, or underinsured women aged 40-64. The WISEWOMAN 
program is designed to prevent, detect, and control hypertension and 
other cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors through healthy 
behavior support services which are tailored for individual and group 
behavior change. The WISEWOMAN program provides services to women who 
are jointly enrolled in the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early 
Detection Program (NBCCEDP), which is also administered by CDC.
    The WISEWOMAN program is administered by state health departments 
and tribal programs. In 2018, new five-year cooperative agreements were 
awarded under Funding Opportunity Announcement DP18-1816, subject to 
the availability of funds. CDC collects two types of information from 
WISEWOMAN awardees. The WISEWOMAN awardee submits an electronic data 
file to CDC twice per year. The Minimum Data Elements (MDE) file 
contains data using a unique identifier with client-level information 
about cardiovascular disease risk factors, types of healthy behavior 
support services for participants served by the program. The estimated 
burden per response for the MDE file is 24 hours. The Annual Progress 
Report provides a narrative summary of each awardee's objectives and 
the activities undertaken to meet program goals. The estimated burden 
per response is 16 hours.
    There are no changes to the information collected. CDC will 
continue to use the information collected from WISEWOMAN awardees to 
support program monitoring and improvement activities, evaluation, and 
assessment of program outcomes. The overall program evaluation helps to 
demonstrate program accomplishments and strengthen the evidence for 
strategy implementation for improved engagement of underserved 
populations. It can also determine whether the identified strategies 
and associated activities can be implemented at various levels within a 
state or tribal organization. Evaluation is also designed to 
demonstrate how WISEWOMAN can obtain cardiovascular disease health 
outcome data on at-risk populations, promote public education about 
cardiovascular disease risk-factors, and improve the availability of 
healthy behavior support services for under-served women.
    This reinstatement is requested for three years. Participation in 
this information collection is required as a condition of cooperative 
agreement funding. There are no costs to respondents other than their 
time. The total annualized burden hours are 1,344.
