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 ``National Healthcare Safety Network'' 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 January 17, 2025 to obtain 
comments from the public and affected agencies. CDC received one 
comment related to the previous notice. 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. Comments and recommendations for the proposed 
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of 
this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular 
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. 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

    National Healthcare Safety Network (OMB Control No. 0920-0666, Exp. 
5/31/2025)--Revision--National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic 
Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Division of Healthcare Quality Promotion (DHQP), National 
Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) collects data from healthcare 
facilities in the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) under OMB 
Control No. 0920-0666. During the early stages of its development, NHSN 
began as a voluntary surveillance system in 2005 managed by DHQP. NHSN 
provides facilities, health departments, states, regions, and the 
nation with data necessary to identify problem areas, measure the 
progress of prevention efforts, and ultimately eliminate healthcare-
associated infections (HAIs) nationwide. NHSN also allows healthcare 
facilities to track blood safety errors and various HAI prevention 
practice methods such as healthcare personnel influenza vaccine status 
and corresponding infection control adherence rates.
    Three diseases (Influenza A (H5), Marburg, and Oropouche) were 
added to the ``Pathogens of High Consequence'' form through an 
Emergency Information Collection Request (ICR) in December 2024. This 
ICR originally expired 12/31/2027, but when the new data elements were 
added through the emergency submission, the new expiration date became 
5/31/2025. This revision is to request three-year approval for the 
changes made to the ``Pathogens of High Consequence'' form in addition 
to the remaining 84 forms in this package. The total burden is 
estimated to be 4,509,135 hours annually.
