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 or send an email to [email protected]. Direct written comments 
and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in this notice to the

Proposed Project

    Customer Surveys Generic Clearance for the National Center for 
Health Statistics (0920-0729, Expiration 05/31/2017)--Reinstatement--
National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Section 306 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 
242k), as amended, authorizes that the Secretary of Health and Human 
Services (DHHS), acting through NCHS, shall collect statistics on ``the 
extent and nature of illness and disability of the population of the 
United States.'' This is a reinstatement request for a generic approval 
from OMB to conduct customer surveys over the next three years at an 
overall burden rate of 4000 hours.
    As part of a comprehensive program, the National Center for Health 
Statistics (NCHS) plans to continue to assess its customers' 
satisfaction with the content, quality and relevance of the information 
it produces. NCHS will conduct voluntary customer surveys to assess 
strengths in agency products and services and to evaluate how well it 
addresses the emerging needs of its data users. Results of these 
surveys will be used in future planning initiatives.
    The data will be collected using a combination of methodologies 
appropriate to each survey. These may include: Evaluation forms, mail 
surveys, focus groups, automated and electronic technology (e.g., 
email, Web-based surveys), and telephone surveys. Systematic surveys of 
several groups will be folded into the program. Among these are Federal 
customers and policy makers, state and local officials who rely on NCHS 
data, the broader educational, research, and public health community, 
and other data users. Respondents may include data users who register 
for and/or attend NCHS sponsored conferences; persons who access the 
NCHS Web site and the detailed data available through it; consultants; 
and others. Respondent data items may include (in broad categories) 
information regarding respondent's gender, age, occupation, 
affiliation, location, etc., to be used to characterize responses only. 
Other questions will attempt to obtain information that will 
characterize the respondents' familiarity with and use of NCHS data, 
their assessment of data content and usefulness, general satisfaction 
with available services and products, and suggestions for improvement 
of surveys, services and products.
    In order to capture anticipated additional feedback opportunities, 
this reinstatement request allows for the potential increase in both 
respondents and time per response for a total estimated annual burden 
total of 4,000 hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their 
time to participate in the survey. The resulting information will be 
for NCHS internal use.
