Public Comment Request--Scholarships for Disadvantaged Students Program

AGENCY: Health Resources and Services Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In compliance with the requirement for opportunity for public 
comment on proposed data collection projects (Section 3506(c) (2) (A) 
of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995), the Health Resources and 
Services Administration (HRSA) announces plans to submit an Information 
Collection Request (ICR), described below, to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB). Prior to submitting the ICR to OMB, HRSA seeks 
comments from the public regarding the burden estimate, below, or any 
other aspect of the ICR.

DATES: Comments on this ICR should be received no later than September 
19, 2016.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments to [email protected] or mail the HRSA 
Information Collection Clearance Officer, Room 10-29, 5600 Fishers

    Information Collection Request Title: Scholarships for 
Disadvantaged Students (SDS) Program.
    OMB No. 0915-0149--Revision.
    Abstract: The program specific form for the SDS program has been 
revised to reflect a change in the order of the fields only. Fields K 
(Public or Non Profit Institution) and H (Point of Contact) have been 
moved to fields A and B respectively. Now Field A is Public or Non 
Profit Institution and Field B is Point of Contact. All other fields 
remained in sequence but were renamed with the appropriate letter 
order.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The purpose of the SDS 
Program is to provide funds to eligible schools to provide scholarships 
to full-time, financially needy students from disadvantaged backgrounds 
enrolled in health professions programs. To qualify for participation 
in the SDS program, a school must be carrying out a program for 
recruiting and retaining students from disadvantaged backgrounds, 
including students who are members of racial and ethnic minority groups 
(section 737(d)(1)(B) of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act). A school 
must meet the eligibility criteria to demonstrate that the program has 
achieved success based on the number and/or percentage of disadvantaged 
students who graduate from the school. In awarding SDS funds to 
eligible schools, funding points must be given to schools based on the 
proportion of graduating students going into primary care, the 
proportion of underrepresented minority students, and the proportion of 
graduates working in medically underserved communities (section 737(c) 
of the PHS Act).
    Likely Respondents: The respondents are institutions that will be 
applying to the SDS program every four years.
    Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by 
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the 
information requested. This includes the time

needed to review instructions; to develop, acquire, install and utilize 
technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating and 
verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and 
disclosing and providing information; to train personnel and to be able 
to respond to a collection of information; to search data sources; to 
complete and review the collection of information; and to transmit or 
otherwise disclose the information. The total annual burden hours 
estimated for this Information Collection Request are summarized in the 
table below.

    HRSA specifically requests comments on (1) the necessity and 
utility of the proposed information collection for the proper 
performance of the agency's functions, (2) the accuracy of the 
estimated burden, (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information to be collected, and (4) the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology to 
minimize the information collection burden.
