development by external stakeholders 

with quality measure development 

expertise such as clinical specialty 

societies, clinical professional 

organizations, patient advocacy 

organizations, educational institutions, 

independent research organizations, 

health systems, and other entities 

engaged in quality measure 

development, and is therefore providing 

this Notice of Funding Opportunity. The 

CMS Meaningful Measurement 

framework https://www.cms.gov/ 

meaningful-measures-20-movingmeasure-reduction-modernization 

guides CMS’s quality measures work. 

II. Provisions of the Notice 

For this NOFO, CMS will accept an 

application specifically and only for 

development of radiology electronic 

clinical quality measures (eCQM) that 

fill an existing gap or need and are high 

impact. Pending an acceptable 

application and budget, the CCSQ/ 

Quality Measurement & Value-Based 

Incentives Group (QMVIG)/Division of 

Quality Measurement (DQM) Program 

Team recommends awarding a single 

source award to Alara Imaging who is 

uniquely qualified to complete the work 

requested. Alara Imaging has specific 

expertise with CMS in development of 

radiology measure(s) requested, can 

provide the proprietary software needed 

to capture imaging data, and has the 

ability to transfer those data to CMS. In 

addition, Alara would serve as the 

measure steward responsible for guiding 

the measure through NQF endorsement 

and the CMS regulatory process. 

III. Collection of Information 

Requirements 

This document does not impose 

information collection requirements, 

that is, reporting, recordkeeping or 

third-party disclosure requirements. 

Consequently, there is no need for 

review by the Office of Management and 

Budget under the authority of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).

Notice of Interstate Lien forms (OMB 

#0970–0152, expiration 7/31/2021). 

There is no change requested to these 

forms. 

DATES: Comments due within 60 days of 

publication. In compliance with the 

requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 

AFC is soliciting public comment on the 

specific aspects of the information 

collection described above. 

ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed 

collection of information can be 

obtained and comments may be 

forwarded by emailing infocollection@

acf.hhs.gov. Alternatively, copies can 

also be obtained by writing to the 

Administration for Children and 

Families, Office of Planning, Research, 

and Evaluation (OPRE), 330 C Street 

SW, Washington, DC 20201, Attn: ACF 

Reports Clearance Officer. All requests, 

emailed or written, should be identified 

by the title of the information collection. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Description: The Administrative 

Subpoena is used by State IV–D 

agencies to obtain income and other 

financial information regarding 

noncustodial parents for purposes of 

establishing, enforcing, and modifying 

child support orders. The Notice of 

Interstate Lien imposes liens in cases 

with overdue support and allows a State 

IV–D agency to file liens across state 

lines, when it is more efficient than 

involving the other state’s IV–D agency. 

Section 452(a)(11) of the Social Security 

Act requires the Secretary of the 

Department of Health and Human 

Services to promulgate forms for 

administrative subpoenas and 

imposition of liens used by state child 

support enforcement (Title IV–D) 

agencies in interstate cases. Section 

454(9)(E) of the Social Security Act 

requires each state to cooperate with 

any other state in using the federal 

forms for issuance of administrative 

subpoenas and imposition of liens in 

interstate child support cases. 

Respondents: State, local, or tribal 

agencies administering a child support 

enforcement program under title IV–D 

of the Social Security Act.

Data Collection Activities (OMB #0970– 

0355) 

AGENCY: Office of Planning, Research, 

and Evaluation, Administration for 

Children and Families, HHS. 

ACTION: Request for public comment. 

SUMMARY: The Administration for 

Children and Families (ACF) proposes 

to extend the existing overarching 

generic clearance for Pre-testing of 

Evaluation Data Collection Activities 

(Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) #0970–0355) with no changes. 

DATES: Comments due within 60 days of 

publication. In compliance with the 

requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 

ACF is soliciting public comment on the 

specific aspects of the information 

collection described above. 

ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed 

collection of information can be 

obtained and comments may be 

forwarded by emailing 

OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov. 

Alternatively, copies can also be 

obtained by writing to the 

Administration for Children and 

Families, Office of Planning, Research, 

and Evaluation, 330 C Street SW, 

Washington, DC 20201, Attn: OPRE 

Reports Clearance Officer. All requests, 

emailed or written, should be identified 

by the title of the information collection. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Description: The ACF Office of 

Planning, Research, and Evaluation 

(OPRE), at the U.S. Department of 

Health and Human Services (HHS) 

intends to request approval from OMB 

to renew a generic clearance to pre-test 

data collection instruments with more 

than nine participants to identify and 

resolve any question or procedural 

problems in survey administration. 

OPRE studies ACF programs, and the 

populations they serve, through rigorous 

research and evaluation projects. These 

include evaluations of existing 

programs, evaluations of innovative 

approaches to helping low-income 

children and families, research 

syntheses, and descriptive and 

exploratory studies. To improve the 

development of its research and 

evaluation surveys, OPRE uses the pretesting of evaluation surveys generic 

clearance to employ a variety of 

techniques including cognitive and 

usability laboratory and field 

techniques, behavior coding, 

exploratory interviews, respondent 

debriefing questionnaires, split sample 

experiments, focus groups, and pilot 

studies/pre-tests. These activities allow 

OPRE to identify if and when a survey 

may be simplified for respondents, 

respondent burden may be reduced, and 

other possible improvements. Following 

standard OMB requirements, OPRE will 

submit a change request for each 

individual data collection activity under 

this generic clearance. Each request will 

include the individual instrument(s), a 

justification specific to the individual 

information collection, and any 

supplementary documents. OMB should 

review within 10 days of receiving each 

change request. 

The information collected in this 

effort will not be the primary subject of 

any published ACF reports; however, 

information may be made public 

through methodological appendices or 

footnotes, reports on instrument 

development, instrument user guides, 

descriptions of respondent behavior, 

and other publications or presentations 

describing findings of methodological 

interest. When necessary, results will be 

labeled as exploratory in nature. The 

results of this pre-testing research may 

be prepared for presentation at 

professional meetings or publication in 

professional journals. 

Respondents: Participants in ACF 

programs being evaluated; participants 

in ACF demonstrations; recipients of 

ACF grants and individuals served by 

ACF grantees; comparison group 

members; and other relevant 

populations, such as individuals at risk 

of needing ACF services.
