DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    The Department of Commerce will submit to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for collection of 
information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act.
    Agency: U.S. Census Bureau.
    Title: National Sample Survey of Registered Nurses.
    OMB Control Number: 0607-####.
    Form Number(s): NSSRN.
    Type of Request: OMB approval of new collection of information.
    Number of Respondents: 65,000.
    Average Hours per Response: 0.4 (Registered Nurses) 0.5 (Nurse 
Practitioners).
    Burden Hours: 28,600.
    Needs and Uses: Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Health and 
Human Services' (HHS) Health Resources and Services Administration's 
(HRSA) National Center for Health Workforce Analysis (NCHWA), the 
National Sample Survey of Registered Nurses (NSSRN) is designed to 
obtain the necessary data to determine the characteristics and 
distribution of Registered Nurses (RNs) throughout the United States, 
as well as emerging patterns in their employment characteristics. These 
data will provide the means for the evaluation and assessment of the 
evolving demographics, educational qualifications, and career 
employment patterns of RNs.
    The Census Bureau will request survey participation from 100,000 
RNs via one of two modes: Web survey or paper questionnaire. Half of 
respondents will receive a letter invitation with the Web URL and login 
ID included in the letter. The other half of respondents will be mailed 
a paper questionnaire with the Web URL and login ID included in the 
questionnaire package. Those RNs that receive a paper questionnaire in 
the first mailing will be randomized.
    The 2018 NSSRN will include multiple contact strategy experiments 
to reduce both follow-up costs and nonresponse bias. There will be a 
non-monetary incentive experiment in the first mailing. Approximately 
half of the sample will be mailed an inscribed syringe pen and lanyard 
for the first contact attempt. Receiving a syringe pen and lanyard were 
discussed with the members of the nursing workforce and the feedback 
was that syringe pens are common in the nursing field due to the nature 
of the occupation. The syringe pen and lanyard will be experimentally 
tested again in the second follow-up mailing with a segment of the non-
responding sampled RNs/NPs from the control group in strategy initial 
mailing. Half of the non-respondents will be mailed a syringe pen and 
lanyard.
    Additionally, the 2018 NSSRN will include an experiment to test the 
efficacy of an infographic in the third contact attempt. Fifty percent 
of the RN sample will be randomly assigned the treatment group. Lastly, 
there will be logos of the several nursing groups that endorse the 
NSSRN. Higher response early in data collection can reduce follow-up 
costs and nonresponse.
    Affected Public: Nurses, researchers, and policymakers.
    Frequency: This 2018 collection is the first administration of the 
NSSRN since the redesign and the Bureau of the Census collecting the 
data. It is expected that this will be collected every four years, with 
a new sample drawn for each administration.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Legal Authority: Census Authority: 13 U.S.C. Section 8(b), HRSA 
NCHWA Authority: Public Health Service Act 42 U.S.C. Section 
294n(b)(2)(A) and 42 U.S.C. Section 295k(a)-(b).
    This information collection request may be viewed at 
www.reginfo.gov. Follow the instructions to view Department of Commerce 
collections currently under review by OMB.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this
