Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information 
collection request titled Data Collection for the Residential Care 
Community and Adult Day Services Center Components of the National 
Study of Long-Term Care Providers to the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) for review and approval. CDC previously published a 
``Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and 
Recommendations'' notice on December 19, 2017 to obtain comments from 
the public and affected agencies. CDC received three comments related 
to the previous notice. This notice serves to

allow an additional 30 days for public and affected agency comments.
    CDC will accept all comments for this proposed information 
collection project. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly

necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    (b) Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;

    Proposed Project
    Data Collection for the Residential Care Community and Adult Day 
Services Center Components of the National Study of Long-Term Care 
Providers (OMB Control Number 0920-0943, Exp. Date 05/31/2019)--
Revision--National Center for Health Statistics, 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 
health resources. . . [and] utilization of health care, including 
extended care facilities, and other institutions.''
    NCHS seeks approval to collect data for the residential care 
community (RCC) and adult day services center (ADSC) survey components 
of the 2018 National Study of Long-Term Care Providers (NSLTCP). A one 
year clearance is requested.
    Details on the complete study design are as follows. The NSLTCP is 
designed to (1) broaden NCHS' ongoing coverage of paid, regulated long-
term care (LTC) providers; (2) merge with existing administrative data 
on LTC providers and service users (i.e. Centers for Medicare and 
Medicaid Services (CMS) data on nursing homes and residents, home 
health agencies and patients, and hospices and patients); (3) update 
data more frequently on LTC providers and service users for which 
nationally representative administrative data do not exist; and (4) 
enable comparisons across LTC sectors and timely monitoring of supply, 
use, and characteristics of these sectors over time. Data will be 
collected from two types of LTC providers in the 50 states and the 
District of Columbia: 2,090 RCCs and 1,650 ADSCs. Data were collected 
in 2012, 2014, and 2016. The data to be collected in 2018 include the 
basic characteristics, services, staffing, and practices of RCCs and 
ADSCs, and demographics, selected health conditions and health care 
utilization, physical functioning, and cognitive functioning of RCC 
residents and ADSC participants. The 2018 NSLTCP will include the 
addition of a contact confirmation call, a call to screen and set an 
appointment for the services user data collection, and sampling and 
services user questionnaires. The provider-level data collection has 
been consolidated into one version of a questionnaire for each setting 
rather than two versions, and a data retrieval call has been 
eliminated.
    Expected users of data from this collection effort include, but are 
not limited to CDC; other Department of Health and Human Services 
(DHHS) agencies, such as the Office of the Assistant Secretary for 
Planning and Evaluation, The Administration for Community Living, and 
the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality; associations, such as 
LeadingAge, National Center for Assisted Living, American Seniors 
Housing Association, Argentum (formerly Assisted Living Federation of 
America), and National Adult Day Services Association; universities; 
foundations; and other private sector organizations such as the 
Alzheimer's Association and the AARP Public Policy Institute.
    Expected burden from data collection for eligible cases is 80 
minutes per respondent: 5 Minutes for a contact confirmation call; 15 
minutes for a screener and appointment setting call; 30 minutes for a 
provider questionnaire; and 30 minutes for a sampling and services user 
questionnaire. We estimate an eligibility rate for ADSCs of 86% and for 
RCCs of 76%. One year clearance is requested to cover the collection of 
data. The burden for the collection is shown in the table below. There 
is no cost to respondents other than their time to participate.
