Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; 
Comment Request

    In compliance with the requirement of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Office of the Secretary (OS), 
Department of Health and Human Services, is publishing the following 
summary of a proposed collection for public comment. Interested persons 
are invited to send comments regarding this burden estimate or any 
other aspect of this collection of information, including any of the 
following subjects: (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.
    Type of Information Collection Request: Revision.
    Title of Information Collection: Development of an Evaluation 
Protocol for Assessing Impacts of OMH State Initiatives.
    Form/OMB No.: 0990-0275.
    Use: This request for clearance involves modification of the OMB 
approved Office of Minority Health (OMH) Uniform Data Set (UDS) (OMB 
No. 0990-275). The UDS is the regular system for reporting program 
management and performance data for all OMH-funded activities. The 
modifications to the UDS requested in this application are intended to: 
(1) Accommodate grant program that were not required to use the UDS at 
the time the system was developed; and (2) continue the development of 
the UDS as a reporting system that will capture the types of data 
needed to identify best practices and assess the progress of OMH-funded 
activities. The UDS has been implemented with 8 sets of grantees and 
cooperative agreement partners from 5 OMH funding programs. The 
recommended modifications will allow reporting by OMH partners 
receiving funding through the State Initiatives and Umbrella 
Cooperative Agreement programs. These changes will improve OMH 
evaluation and planning capacities and support program accountability.
