                     Faculty Loan Repayment Program *OMB No.:*
                     0915-0150—Revision. *Abstract:*
                     HRSA's Bureau of Health Workforce administers the Faculty Loan Repayment Program (FLRP). FLRP provides degree-trained health professionals from disadvantaged backgrounds based on environmental and/or economic factors the opportunity to enter into a contract with the HHS in exchange for the repayment of qualifying educational loans for a minimum of 2 years of service as a full-time or part-time faculty member at eligible health professions schools. A 60-day notice published in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                     on October 6, 2020, vol. 85, No. 194; pp. 63120-21. There were no public comments. *Need and Proposed Use of the Information:*
                     The information collected will be used to evaluate applicants' eligibility to participate in FLRP and to monitor FLRP related activities. The FLRP intends to include a Disadvantaged Background (DB) form in the FLRP application. FLRP applicants are required to provide certification from a health professions school previously attended that identifies the individual as coming from an economically or environmentally disadvantaged background. In the past, applicants provided this information in varying formats. The DB form is not requesting new information from FLRP applicants. The form will allow an easier method for applicants to compete and convey their DB status and will standardize the collection of information. The information collected will be used to evaluate applicants' rank and tier in the FLRP award process. *Likely Respondents:*
                     FLRP applicants and institutions providing employment to the applicants. *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.
