SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Education (ED), in

3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general public and Federal agencies with 
an opportunity to comment on proposed, revised, and continuing 
collections of information. This helps the Department assess the impact 
of its information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand the Department's 
information collection requirements and provide the requested data in 
the desired format. ED is soliciting comments on the proposed 
information collection request (ICR) that is described below. The 
Department of Education is especially interested in public comment 
addressing the following issues: (1) Is this collection necessary to 
the proper functions of the Department; (2) will this information be 
processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden 
accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility, 
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the 
Department minimize the burden of this collection on the respondents, 
including through the use of information technology. Please note that 
written comments received in response to this notice will be considered 
public records.
    Title of Collection: Health Education Assistance Loan (HEAL).
    OMB Control Number: 1845-0126.
    Type of Review: An extension of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Private Sector.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 390.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 205.
    Abstract: Section 525 of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 
2014 transferred the collection of HEAL program loans from the U.S. 
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to the U.S. Department of 
Education (Department). The pertinent information collections were 
transferred from HHS to the Department and the forms were updated with 
new contact information and numbers. This is a request for an extension 
of the information collection for forms HEAL 502-1 and 502-2, HEAL 
repayment schedules and form HEAL 512, Holder's Report on HEAL program 
loans. The forms 502-1 and 502-2 provide the borrowers with any updated 
repayment schedule including the cost of the loan, number and amount of 
payments with Truth-in-Lending disclosures. The form 512 is prepared 
quarterly and provides information on the status of outstanding loans 
such as the number of borrowers by stage of loan life-cycle, repayment 
status and the corresponding dollars.
