Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comment Request

    Proposed Projects:
    Title: Initial Medical Exam Form and Initial Dental Exam Form.
    OMB No.: 0970-0466.
    Description:
    The Administration for Children and Families' Office of Refugee 
Resettlement (ORR) places unaccompanied minors in their custody in 
licensed care provider facilities until reunification with a qualified 
sponsor. Care provider facilities are required to provide children with 
services such as classroom education, mental health services, and 
health care. Pursuant to Exhibit 1, part A.2 of the Flores Settlement 
Agreement (Jenny Lisette Flores, et al., v. Janet Reno, Attorney 
General of the United States, et al., Case No. CV 85-4544-RJK (C.D. 
Cal. 1996), care provider facilities, on behalf of ORR, shall arrange 
for appropriate routine medical and dental care and emergency health 
care services, including a complete medical examination and screening 
for infectious diseases within 48 hours of admission, excluding 
weekends and holidays, unless the minor was recently examined at 
another facility; appropriate immunizations in accordance with the U.S. 
Public Health Service (PHS), Center for Disease Control; administration 
of prescribed medication and special diets; appropriate mental health 
interventions when necessary for each minor in their care.
    The forms are to be used as worksheets for clinicians, medical 
staff, and health departments to compile information that would 
otherwise have been collected during the initial medical or dental 
exam. Once completed, the forms will be given to shelter staff for data 
entry into ORR's secure, electronic data repository known as `The UAC 
Portal'. Data will be used to record UC health on admission and for 
case management of any identified illnesses/conditions.
    Respondents: Office of Refugee Resettlement Grantee staff.
