Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and 
Recommendations

AGENCY: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Department of 
Health and Human Services (HHS).

ACTION: Notice with comment period.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as part 
of its continuing effort to reduce public burden and maximize the 
utility of government information, invites the general public and other 
Federal agencies the opportunity to comment on a proposed and/or 
continuing information collection, as required by the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995. This notice invites comment on a proposed 
information collection project titled Evaluation of the Chronic Disease 
Self-Management in the US Affiliated Pacific Islands. This project will 
assess participant satisfaction, health behavior, and overall health 
before and after a six-week Chronic Disease Self-Management workshop.

DATES: CDC must receive written comments on or before April 3, 2018.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. CDC-2018-
00011 by any of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: Regulations.gov. Follow the 
instructions for submitting comments.
     Mail: Leroy A. Richardson, Information Collection Review 
Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 Clifton Road 
NE, MS-D74, Atlanta, Georgia 30329.
    Instructions: All submissions received must include the agency name 
and Docket Number. CDC will post, without change, all relevant comments 
to Regulations.gov.
    Please note: Submit all comments through the Federal eRulemaking 
portal (regulations.gov) or by U.S. mail to the address listed above.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request more information on the 
proposed project or to obtain a copy of the information collection plan 
and instruments, contact Leroy A. Richardson, Information Collection 
Review Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 Clifton 
Road NE, MS-D74, Atlanta, Georgia 30329; phone: 404-639-7570; Email: 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 
(PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal agencies must obtain approval from 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of 
information they conduct or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also requires 
Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register 
concerning each proposed collection of information, including each new 
proposed collection, each proposed extension of existing collection of 
information, and each reinstatement of previously approved information 
collection before submitting the collection to the OMB for approval. To 
comply with this requirement, we are publishing this notice of a 
proposed data collection as described below.
    The OMB is particularly interested in comments that will help:
    1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    2. Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic 
submissions of responses.
    5. Assess information collection costs.

Proposed Project

    Evaluation of the Chronic Disease Self-Management Program in the US 
Affiliated Pacific Islands--New--National Center for Chronic Disease 
Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control 
and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    NCCDPHP plans to evaluate the first ever implementation of Stanford 
University's Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP) in the US 
Affiliated Pacific Islands (USAPIs). These jurisdictions include 
American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, 
the Republic of Palau, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the 
Federated States of Micronesia.
    The purpose of the evaluation is to understand how CDSMP is being 
implemented in the region, to identify barriers and facilitators to 
implementation, to monitor fidelity to Stanford University's model and 
document adaptations to the curriculum, and to understand the self-
reported effects of the program on program participants.
    Evaluating the implementation of CDSMP in the Pacific is important 
because there is a lack of evidence-based chronic disease prevention 
and management programs in the USAPIs. CDSMP has proven to improve 
health outcomes in many ethnic groups within the United States, 
however, we are unsure whether the same health outcomes will be 
achieved within the USAPIs. The data collected for this evaluation will 
help the CDC assess the effect of CDSMP on health outcomes in

[[Page 4918]]

the USAPIs and to understand whether the CDSMP curriculum needs to be 
adapted to meet the cultural needs of the USAPIs and if it is feasible 
to expand the CDSMP program in the USAPIs.
    In this evaluation, program participants (people who are enrolled 
in six-week CDSMP workshops) will be asked to fill out the following 
voluntary surveys:
     Chronic Disease Self-Management Workshop Evaluation Form: 
This is a survey to assess program participant satisfaction with CDSMP. 
The survey will be administered once at the end of the six-week CDSMP 
workshop.
     Chronic Disease Self-Management Questionnaire: This is a 
pre- and post-test for program participants to assess chronic disease 
related symptoms and health behaviors before CDSMP and at the end of 
the six-week workshop. The survey will be administered once at the 
start of the six-week workshop and once at the end of the six-week 
workshop. The pre-test surveys and the post-test survey results will be 
compared.
    Program participants will voluntarily complete three surveys over 
the course of the six-week CDSMP workshop. We anticipate collecting 
surveys over a three-year period, or 36 months.
    The CDC will provide CDSMP leaders in the USAPIs with surveys. 
CDSMP leaders will administer the voluntary paper-based surveys to 
participants during the workshops, collect the surveys, and submit the 
surveys to the CDC.
    CDSMP leaders will store surveys in a locked cabinet only 
accessible to them. They will scan the survey in a secure location on a 
dedicated server only accessible to the CDSMP leader. The server will 
have a firewall. CDSMP leaders will encrypt and submit electronic 
copies of the survey to the CDC.
    CDC will maintain the surveys and abstracted data in secure 
location on a dedicated server only accessible by the evaluation staff, 
the program coordinator, and the program assistant. The server will 
have a firewall. Data will be aggregated and the aggregated data will 
be used and shared with stakeholders.
    Data will not be collected from participants electronically because 
computers and other electronic data collection methods will not be 
available at the six-week workshops.
    The information collection will involve approximately 190 
respondents for a total cost of $19,501. The estimated cost to 
participants is $570. There are a total of three responses, or three 
surveys, per respondent. Each response will take 10 minutes to 
complete. The estimated time burden is 95 hours. We do not anticipate 
capital and start-up costs to respondents and record keepers. We expect 
an operation and maintenance cost for record keepers, who will print 
surveys and provide pens for program participants to fill out the 
survey, which will cost $11.40 for paper and $25 for pens.

                                                            Estimated Annualized Burden Hours
