Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and Recommendations

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 Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS). PRAMS provides an important supplement to vital records data by providing state-specific information not available through birth certificate data on maternal behaviors and experiences before, during and after pregnancy on health conditions, prenatal care, postpartum care, access to care, and health insurance status.
