Abstract: HRSA is requesting an 

extension of the approval for the 

Environmental Information and 

Documentation (EID) checklist, which 

consists of information that the agency 

is required to obtain to comply with the 

National Environmental Policy Act of 

1969 (NEPA). NEPA establishes the 

federal government’s national policy for 

protection of the environment. HRSA 

has developed the EID for applicants of 

funding that would potentially impact 

the environment and to ensure that their 

decision-making processes are 

consistent with NEPA. Applicants must 

provide information and assurance of 

compliance with NEPA on the EID 

checklist. The estimated annual burden 

is as follows: 

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. The total annual burden 

hours estimated for this ICR are

heritabledisorders. 

Purpose: The Secretary’s Advisory 

Committee on Heritable Disorders in 

Newborns and Children (SACHDNC), as 

authorized by Public Law 106–310, which 

added section 1111 of the Public Health 

Service Act, codified at 42 U.S.C. 300b–10, 

was established by Congress to advise the 

Secretary of the Department of Health and 

Human Services regarding the development 

of newborn screening activities, technologies, 

policies, guidelines, and programs for 

effectively reducing morbidity and mortality 

in newborns and children having, or at risk 

for, heritable disorders. The SACHDNC’s 

recommendations regarding additional 

conditions/inherited disorders for screening 

that have been adopted by the Secretary are 

included in the Recommended Uniform 

Screening Panel (RUSP) that constitutes part 

of the comprehensive guidelines supported 

by the Health Resources and Services 

Administration. Pursuant to section 2713 of 

the Public Health Service Act, codified at 42 

U.S.C. 300gg–13, non-grandfathered health 

plans are required to cover screenings 

included in the comprehensive guidelines 

without charging a co-payment, co-insurance, 

or deductible for plan years (i.e., policy 

years) beginning on or after the date that is 

one year from the Secretary’s adoption of the 

condition for screening. The SACHDNC also 

provides advice and recommendations 

concerning grants and projects authorized 

under section 1109 of the Public Health 

Service Act (42 U.S.C. 300b–8). 

Agenda: The meeting will include: (1) 

Updates on state implementation of newborn 

screening for Critical Congenital Heart 

Disease (CCHD) and Severe Combined 

Immunodeficiency Disorder (SCID); (2) 

update on the Pompe Condition Nomination; 

(3) update on application of the SACHDNC 

Condition Review Matrix; (4) updates on 

priority projects from the Advisory 

Committee’s subcommittees on Laboratory 

Standards and Procedures, Follow-up and 

Treatment, and Education and Training; (5) 

a presentation on the Duchenne Muscular 

Dystrophy Newborn Screening Symposium; 

(6) a final workgroup report on carrier 

screening; and (7) a presentation on the 

National Institutes of Health’s Genomic 

Sequencing and Newborn Screening 

Disorders Initiative. 

Tentatively, the SACHDNC is expected to 

vote on: (1) A finalized report regarding 

genetic carrier screening (i.e., testing to 

identify individuals who may be at increased 

risk of carrying one or more gene mutations 

that could result in having children affected 

with an inherited genetic disorder); and (2) 

application of the Condition Review Decision 

Matrix. 

Proposed agenda items are subject to 

change as priorities dictate. The agenda,

Administration 

National Vaccine Injury Compensation 

Program: Revised Amount of the 

Average Cost of a Health Insurance 

Policy 

The Health Resources and Services 

Administration (HRSA) is publishing an 

updated monetary amount of the 

average cost of a health insurance policy 

as it relates to the National Vaccine 

Injury Compensation Program (VICP). 

Section 100.2 of the VICP’s 

implementing regulation (42 CFR Part 

100) states that the revised amounts of 

an average cost of a health insurance 

policy, as determined by the Secretary, 

are to be published periodically in a 

notice in the Federal Register and filed 

with the United States Court of Federal 

Claims (the Court). This figure is 

calculated using the most recent 

Medical Expenditure Panel SurveyInsurance Component (MEPS–IC) data 

available as the baseline for the average 

monthly cost of a health insurance 

policy. This baseline is adjusted by the 

annual percentage increase/decrease 

obtained from the most recent annual 

Kaiser Family Foundation and Health 

Research and Educational Trust (KFF/ 

HRET) Employer Health Benefits survey 

or other authoritative source that may be 

more accurate or appropriate. 

In 2012, MEPS–IC, available at 

www.meps.ahrq.gov, published the 

annual 2011 average total single 

premium per enrolled employee at 

private-sector establishments that 

provide health insurance. The annual 

figure published was $5,222. This figure 

is divided by 12 months to determine 

the cost per month of $435.17. The 

$435.17 shall be increased or decreased 

by the percentage change reported by 

the most recent KFF/HRET, available at 

www.kff.org. The percentage increase 

was published at 3 percent. By adding 

this percentage increase, the calculated 

average monthly cost of a health 

insurance policy for a 12 month period 

is $448.23. 

Therefore, the Secretary announces 

that the revised average cost of a health 

insurance policy under the VICP is 

$448.23 per month. In accordance with 

§ 100.2, the revised amount was 

effective upon its delivery by the 

Secretary to the Court. Such notice was 

delivered to the Court on November 30, 

2012.
