SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: The Integrity Profile (TIP).

OMB Number: 0584–0401.

Expiration Date: 1–31–98.

Type of Request: Extention of a

Currently Approved Collection.

Abstract: State agencies administering

the Special Supplemental Nutrition

Program for Women, Infants and

Children (WIC Program) are required by

7 CFR 246.12(i)(3) to submit to FCS an

annual summary of the results of their

vendor monitoring efforts in order to

provide Congress, senior FCS officials,

as well as the general public, assurance

that every reasonable effort is being

made to ensure integrity in the WIC

Program.

Since 1989, integrity data has been

required to be submitted annually for

analysis and the Vendor Activity

Monitoring Profile (VAMP) report has

been traditionally produced by FCS

which shows the level of monitoring

and investigation conducted by WIC

State agencies to detect and eliminate,

or substantially reduce, vendor fraud

and abuse. The WIC Program recently

reassessed State and Federal data

collection and reporting needs as they

relate to the integrity of the WIC

Program. Based on this reassessment,

The Integrity Profile (TIP) was

developed, which will replace the

current VAMP data system.

Approximately 25 data elements that

had been reported in VAMP were

eliminated and about 15 data elements

were added to the data that is currently

reported to form the new TIP reporting

system. Whereas VAMP focused on

vendors that were investigated, TIP will

better reflect all monitoring efforts, not

just investigations conducted. The TIP

report will better describe State agency

efforts to not only detect abuse but also

prevent abuse from occurring and better

describe the characteristics of the

vendor population. Lastly, the TIP

report makes better use of existing data

that is captured in State automated

systems. Reporting will be streamlined,

as data will be downloaded from State

systems and transmitted to FCS

electronically.

Estimate of Burden: Public reporting

burden for this collection of information

is estimated to average 20.8 hours per

response, including the time for

reviewing instructions, searching

existing data sources, gathering and

maintaining the data needed, and

completing and reviewing the collection

of information.

Respondents: The Program Director of

each WIC State agency, which is

generally a State Health Department or

an Indian Tribal Organization.

Estimated Number of Respondents: 88

respondents.

Estimated Number of Responses Per

Respondent: One.

Estimated Total Annual Burden on

Respondents: 1,830.4 hours.

Dated: July 21, 1997.

Administrator, Food and Consumer Service.
