SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Information Collection Request Title: Rural Health Network 
Development Program OMB No. 0906-0010--Revision.
    Abstract: The purpose of the Rural Health Network Development 
(RHND) program is to support mature, integrated rural health care 
networks that have combined the functions of the entities participating 
in the network in order to address the health care needs of the 
targeted rural community. Awarded programs combine the functions of the 
entities participating in the network to create innovative solutions to 
local healthcare needs while addressing the following statutory 
charges: (i) Achieve efficiencies; (ii) expand access, coordinate, and 
improve the quality of essential health care services; and (iii) 
strengthen the rural health care system as a whole. RHND funded 
programs promote population health management and the transition 
towards value based care through diverse network membership that 
include traditional and non-traditional network partners collaborating 
to address the local healthcare needs of the targeted community. 
Evidence of program impact demonstrated by outcome data and program 
sustainability are integral components of the program. This is a 3-year 
competitive program for mature networks composed of at least three 
members that are separate, existing health care providers entities.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: For this program, 
performance measures provide data to the program and to enable HRSA to 
provide aggregate program data. These measures cover the principal 
topic areas of interest to the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy, 
including: (a) Network infrastructure; (b) sustainability; (c) 
community impact; and (d) access and quality of healthcare. Several 
measures will be used for this program.
    For this revised ICR, there are proposed changes to several 
measures that include network infrastructure, sustainability, community 
impact, and access and quality of healthcare.
    Likely Respondents: The respondents would be RHND Program grant 
recipients.
    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 ICR are summarized in the table below.
