    Proposed Project: Public Input to Nominate Non-Federal Health and 
Health Care Data Sets and Applications for Listing on Healthdata.gov-
OMB No. 0990-NEW--Immediate Office of the Secretary, Office of the 
Chief Technology Officer.
    Abstract: The Department of Health and Human Services is promoting 
the use of health and health care datasets that are not specific to 
individual's personal health information to improve decision making by 
individuals, organizations, and governments through better 
understanding of the data. Federal agencies are making health indicator 
datasets (data that is not associated with any individuals) and tools 
available for use by the public through a web portal community known as 
healthdata.gov or http://www.data.gov/health. These datasets and tools 
are anticipated to benefit development of applications, web-based 
tools, and other electronic resources improve community action for 
health and health care. The development of tools, reference sets, 
dashboards, and electronic data visualization methods serve to provide 
context and understanding to complex health and health care data.
    To broaden the type and amount of data available for these 
purposes, HHS is soliciting public input on nominations of non-federal 
health and health data indicator datasets and applications using them 
to improve health and health data. For example, health indicator 
datasets representing surveys conducted by state government or private 
organizations may be considered as high-value datasets among 
researchers, applications developers, and others.
