including through the use of information technology. Please note that

public records.
    Title of Collection: Health Education Assistance Loan (HEAL).
    OMB Control Number: 1845-0126.
    Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved 
collection.

requirements associated with the forms of the Health Education 
Assistance Loan (HEAL) Program, currently approved under OMB No. 1845-
0126, which expires June 30, 2022. Clearance of this information

of the HEAL program and to identify which lenders may have excessive 
delinquencies and defaulted loans. The information collection is 
essential for reporting and retaining information for sound and 
responsible program management.
