Office of the Director; Amended Notice of Meeting

    Notice is hereby given of a change in the meeting of the NIH 
Clinical Center Research Hospital Board scheduled for October 21, 2016, 
9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., in Conference Room 6C6, Building 31, National 
Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, which was published in the 
Federal Register on September 16, 2016, 81 FR 63778.
    A discussion of the reports from the Anonymous Safety Hotline 
developed by NIH for Clinical Center staff, patients, or visitors to 
report any concerns about care or unsafe conditions has been added to 
the closed portion of the meeting. This portion will be closed to the 
public in accordance with the provisions set forth in section 
552b(c)(9)(B) and 552b(c)(6), Title 5 U.S.C., as amended. The premature 
disclosure of the laboratories or units and staff involved in the 
individual reports could significantly limit the Hotline's purpose by 
compromising anonymity. These actions would frustrate NIH's use of this 
resource as it strives to improve the overall safety and quality of 
care at the Clinical Center.
    There are no changes for the open portion of the meeting that was 
advertised on September 16, 2016.
