Information Collection Request Title: 

Maternal and Child Health Bureau 

(MCHB) Performance Measures for 

Discretionary Grant Information System 

(DGIS), OMB No. 0915–0298—Revision. 

Abstract: Approval from OMB is 

sought to implement minor revisions to 

the MCHB Performance Measures for 

DGIS. Most of these measures are 

specific to certain types of programs and 

are not required of all grantees. The 

measures are categorized by domain 

(Adolescent Health, Capacity Building, 

Child Health, Children with Special 

Health Care Needs, Lifecourse/ 

Crosscutting, Maternal/Women Health, 

and Perinatal/Infant Health), in addition 

to some program-specific measures. 

Grant programs are assigned domains 

based on their activities and individual 

grantees respond to only a limited 

number of performance measures that 

are relevant to their specific program. 

Need and Proposed Use of the 

Information: The performance data 

collected through the DGIS serves 

several purposes, including grantee 

monitoring, program planning, 

performance reporting, and the ability to 

demonstrate alignment between MCHB 

discretionary programs and the Title V 

MCH Services Block Grant program. 

HRSA is making the following changes 

to the current OMB package for MCHB 

DGIS to more closely align data 

collection forms with current program 

activities: 

Removing the following existing 

forms: Core 1 (Grant Impact), Capacity 

Building 2 (Technical Assistance), 

Capacity Building 7 (Direct Annual 

Access to Maternal and Child Health 

(MCH) Data), Training Form 13 (Diverse 

Adolescent Involvement (LEAHspecific)), Financial Form 2 (Project 

Funding Profile), and Financial Form 4 

(Project Budget and Expenditures); 

Adding the following new form: 

Training Form 14 (Teleconsultation and 

Training for Mental and Behavioral 

Health) and Leadership, Education, and 

Advancement in Undergraduate 

Pathways Training Program Trainee 

Information Form; 

Revising the following existing forms: 

F2F (Family to Family Form 1), 

Financial Form 1 (MCHB Project Budget 

Details), Financial Form 4 (new name: 

MCH Discretionary Grant Project 

Abstract), and MCH Training Program 

Data Forms; 

Revising and Renumbering the 

following forms: Core 3 (Health Equity) 

will become the new Core 1 (Health 

Equity), Financial Form 3 (Budget 

Details by Types of Individuals Served) 

will become the new Financial Form 2 

(Budget Details by Types of Individuals 

Served), Financial Form 5 (Number of 

Individuals Served (Unduplicated)) will 

become the new Financial Form 3 

(Number of Individuals Served 

(Unduplicated)), and Financial Form 6 

(Project Abstract) will become the new 

Financial Form 4 (Project Abstract); and 

Renumbering the following forms: 

Core 2 (Quality Improvement) will 

become the new Capacity Building 4 

(Quality Improvement), Capacity 

Building 3 (Impact Measurement) will 

become the new Capacity Building 2 

(Impact Measurement), Capacity 

Building 4 (Sustainability) will become 

the new Capacity Building 3 

(Sustainability), and Training 14 

(Medium-Term Trainees Skill and 

Knowledge (PPC-Specific)) will become 

the new Training 13 (Medium-Term 

Trainees Skill and Knowledge (PPCSpecific)). 

Non-substantive revisions also 

include updates to terminology, goals, 

benchmark data sources, and 

significance sections included in the 

measures’ detail sheets. A performance 

measure detail sheet defines and 

describes each performance measure. 

Forms and detail sheets showing the 

proposed revisions are available upon 

request. 

This revision will facilitate more 

efficient and accurate reporting of 

information related to capacity building 

activities, financial and demographic 

data, and training activities. 

Likely Respondents: The grantees for 

MCHB Discretionary Grant Programs. 

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
