    Information Collection Request Title: The Maternal, Infant, and 
Early Childhood Home Visiting Program Performance Measurement 
Information System, OMB Control Number: 0906-0017--Revision.
    Abstract: This clearance request is for continued approval of the 
Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program 
Performance Measurement Information System. The MIECHV Program, 
administered by HRSA in partnership with the Administration for 
Children and Families, supports voluntary, evidence-based home visiting 
services during pregnancy women and to parents with young children up 
to kindergarten entry. States, certain non-profit organizations, and 
Tribal entities are eligible to receive funding from the MIECHV Program 
and have the flexibility to tailor the program to serve the specific 
needs of their communities. HRSA is revising the data collection forms 
for the MIECHV Program by making the following changes:
     Form 1: Update all tables to include specific guidance to 
account for and report missing data.
     Form 1, Tables 1 and 2: Update table titles to reflect 
``participants served by MIECHV.''
     Form 1, Table 5: Update to reflect correct age categories 
of ``<1 year''; ``1-2 years''; ``3-4 years''; and ``5-6 years.''
     Form 1, Table 8: Revise the category of ``Never Married'' 
to read ``Never Married (excluding not married but living together with 
partner).''
     Form 1, Table 10: Delete.
     Form 1, Table 18: Delete.
     Form 1, Table 22: Revise to only include children greater 
than or equal to 12 months of age. Title will be updated to ``Index 
Children (>=12 months of age) by Usual Source of Dental Care.''
     Form 1, Notes: Revise to include Table-specific notes.
     Form 1, Definition of Key Terms: Update definitions for 
Tables 1, 3, 5, 12, 13, 15, 17, 20, 21, and 22.
     Form 2: Update all measures to include specific guidance 
to account for and report missing data.
     Form 2, Measure 3: Update denominator to reflect correct 
inclusion criteria.
     Form 2, Measure 4: Update measure to benchmark receipt of 
well-child visits to specific ages.
     Form 2, Measure 9: Update numerator to clarify that 
investigated cases of maltreatment must have occurred within the 
reporting period.
     Form 2, Measure 10: Update denominator to clarify the 
appropriate unit of analysis is the index child.
     Form 2, Measure 14: Update measure to reflect current 
terminology and the timing within which screenings should be reported.
     Form 2, Measure 15: Update measure and numerator to 
include primary caregivers enrolled in middle school.
     Form 2, Measure 16: Update numerator to reflect correct 
inclusion criteria.
     Form 2, Measure 17: Update denominator to reflect correct 
inclusion criteria.
     Form 2, Measure 19: Update denominator to reflect correct 
inclusion criteria.
     Form 2, Definitions of Key Terms: Update definitions for 
measures 1-19.
    HRSA is also requesting an extension of this information collection 
request through November 30, 2021.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: HRSA uses performance 
information to demonstrate program accountability with legislative and 
program requirements and continuously monitor and provide oversight to 
MIECHV Program awardees. The information is also used to provide 
quality improvement guidance and technical assistance to awardees and 
help inform the development of early childhood systems at the national, 
state, and local level. HRSA is seeking to revise demographic, service 
utilization, and select clinical indicators for participants enrolled 
in home visiting services. In addition, HRSA will collect a set of 
standardized performance and outcome indicators that correspond with 
the statutorily identified benchmark areas. In the future, HRSA 
anticipates that MIECHV funding decisions may be allocated, in part, 
based on this data. This notice is subject to the appropriation of 
funds, and is a contingency action taken to ensure that, should funds 
become available for this purpose, information can be collected in a 
timely manner.
    Likely Respondents: MIECHV Program awardees.
    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.

    HRSA specifically requests comments on (1) the necessity and 
utility of the proposed information collection for the proper 
performance of the agency's functions, (2) the accuracy of the 
estimated burden, (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information to be collected, and (4) the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology to 
minimize the information collection burden.
