    Title of the Collection: Performance and Evaluation Measurement

    Type of Collection: New Data Collection.
    OMB No. 0990-NEW.
    Abstract: The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) 
Office of Minority Health (OMH) is requesting OMB approval on a new 
information collection, Performance and Evaluation Measurement System 
(PEMS). The proposed information collection activity will allow OMH to 
collect grant management and performance data and disparity impact 
information for all OMH-funded projects. The clearance is needed to 
support data collection using Grant Solutions, a system that enables 
OMH to comply with Federal reporting requirements and monitor and 
evaluate performance by enabling the efficient collection of 
performance-oriented data tied to OMH-wide performance reporting needs. 
The ability to monitor and evaluate performance in this manner, and to 
work towards continuous program improvement are basic functions that 
OMH must be able to accomplish to carry out its mandate with the most 
effective and appropriate use of resources.
    This information collection includes two new web-based data 
collection tools:
    <bullet> OMH Performance Progress Report
    <bullet> Disparity Impact Statement
    The OMH Performance Progress Report is a supplement to the Office 
of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH) periodic Performance 
Progress Report, and recipients will submit reports on a quarterly 
basis. Recipients will submit the Disparity Impact Statement once 
during the period of performance.
    Likely Respondents: Members and staff from academia, community 
organizations, private non-profit organizations, local/state/federal 
government, and tribal government and services organizations including 
those who serve American Indian and Alaska Native and/or racial and 
ethnic minorities.
