SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Information Collection Request Title: Radiation Exposure Screening 
and Education Program, OMB No. 0906-0012--Revision.
    Abstract: The Radiation Exposure Screening and Education Program 
(RESEP) is authorized by section 417C of the Public Health Service Act 
(42 U.S.C. 285a-9). The purpose of RESEP is to assist individuals who 
live (or lived) in areas where U.S. nuclear weapons testing occurred 
and who are diagnosed with cancer and other radiogenic diseases caused 
by exposure to nuclear fallout or nuclear materials such as uranium. 
RESEP funds support eligible health care organizations in implementing 
cancer screening programs; developing education programs; disseminating 
information on radiogenic diseases and the importance of early 
detection; screening eligible individuals for cancer and other 
radiogenic diseases; providing appropriate referrals for medical 
treatment; and facilitating documentation of radiation exposure.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: For this program, 
performance measures were drafted to provide data useful to the program 
and to enable HRSA to provide aggregate program data required by 
Congress under the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (Pub. 
L. 103-62). These measures cover the principal topic areas of interest 
to the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy (FORHP), including 
demographics for the RESEP program user population, medical screening 
activities for cancers and other radiogenic diseases, exposure and 
presentation types for eligible radiogenic malignant and nonmalignant 
diseases, referrals for appropriate medical treatment, eligibility 
counseling and referral assistance for the Radiation Exposure 
Compensation Act, and program outreach and education activities. These 
measures speak to FORHP's progress toward meeting the established 
goals. In order to reduce the reporting burden by the award recipients, 
a number of questions have been removed with the new set of measures 
reflecting an effort to streamline data collection and collect 
consistent and uniform measures across FORHP's grant programs.
    Likely Respondents: RESEP award 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.
