incorporate COVID–19 vaccine 

questions currently under emergency 

approval. From time to time, there may 

be refinements in the information 

collection to keep pace with changes in 

the field or to enhance the ability to 

collect information in an automated 

fashion from respondent source 

systems, such as electronic health 

records. 

Likely Respondents: Transplant 

Centers. 

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 

summarized in the table below. The 

estimated total annual burden hours for 

this submission are 56,768 compared to 

62,583 estimated in the 30-day Federal 

Register notice posted on August 22, 

2019.

1This burden estimate table refers to data collections at different time periods consistent with approved practice. The SCTOD contractor is 

working with respondents to reduce burden by submitting data using interoperability standards. These data collections may include OMB-approved forms. 2The Number of Responses the total number of transplant centers that submit data to the SCTOD is equal to 177. 

3The Number of Responses per Respondent was calculated by dividing the Total Responses by the Number of Respondents and rounding to 

the nearest tenth. 4The Total Responses is less than previous calculations because of improvements in estimation. Previous estimates assumed all years had 

the same number of transplants. This improved estimate includes accurate transplant counts from prior years, which are often less than the current year leading to less follow-up activity. 5Pre-Transplant Data includes baseline recipient data including patient demographics, pertinent medical history, disease characteristics and 

status, and co-morbidities, transplant data procedure characteristics, including preparative regimen, and donor data. 6Total Responses for Pre-Transplant Information Collection equals number of new transplant patients in 2020. 

7This number is rounded to nearest tenth. The actual burden estimate for these data is 1.11666666. 

8Transplant Procedure and Product Information includes Graft-vs-Host Disease (GVHD) prophylaxis, graft source, donor type and degree of 

human leukocyte antigen matching and graft manipulation; graft characteristic data for cord blood units, including infused cell dose; and product 

information. 9Total Responses for Transplant Procedure and Product Information equals number of new transplant patients in 2020. 

10Post-Transplant Data Collection includes hematopoietic recovery and engraftment, serious complications including GVHD and second cancers, disease status, survival status, and cause of death; and subsequent procedures. 11Total Responses for Post-Transplant Periodic Information Collection is based on a predetermined schedule: 100 days after transplant, 6 

months after transplant, 1 year after transplant, annually for 6 years after transplant and then biennially thereafter. In any given year the number 

of responses is a function of the number of transplants in that year, the number of transplants in previous years, and expected patient survival 

between the time of transplant and any follow-up activity. 12This number is rounded to nearest tenth. The actual burden estimate is 0.74. 

HRSA specifically requests comments 

on (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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Information Collection Request Title: 

Rural Health Clinic COVID–19 (RHC 

COVID–19) Reporting Portal, OMB No. 

0906–0056—Revision. 

Abstract: In October 2020, HRSA’s 

Federal Office of Rural Health Policy 

(FORHP) created a monthly, aggregate 

data report to collect information on 

COVID–19 testing and related expenses 

conducted by funded organizations 

participating in the RHC COVID–19 

Testing (RHCCT) Program funded 

through the Paycheck Protection 

Program and Health Care Enhancement 

Act (Pub. L. 116–139). FORHP is 

expanding this data report to collect 

information on COVID–19 testing, 

COVID–19 mitigation, and related 

expenses conducted by funded 

organizations participating in the RHC 

COVID–19 Testing and Mitigation 

(RHCCTM) Program funded through the 

American Rescue Plan Act (Pub. L. 117– 

2). Funded organizations were 

identified by Tax Identification Number 

(TIN), and a TIN organization may 

operate one or more RHC sites which 

were identified by unique CMS 

Certification Numbers. Respondents are 

TIN organizations who received funding 

for COVID–19 testing, COVID–19 

mitigation, and related expenses. HRSA 

issued RHCCTM funding as one-time 

payments to 2,301 TIN organizations 

based on the number of certified RHC 

sites they operate, providing $100,000 

per clinic site (4,459 RHC sites total 

across the country). Data report 

information is needed to comply with 

federal requirements to monitor funds 

distributed under the Paycheck 

Protection Program and Health Care 

Enhancement Act and the American 

Rescue Plan Act. 

A 60-day notice published in the 

Federal Register, 87 FR 103 (January 3, 

2022). There were no public comments. 

Need and Proposed Use of the 

Information: The RHC COVID–19 

Reporting Portal collects information 

from RHC-funded providers who use 

RHCCT Program funding and RHCCTM 

Program funding to support COVID–19 

testing, expand access to testing in rural 

communities, and other related 

expenses. The RHC COVID–19 

Reporting Portal also collects 

information from RHC-funded providers 

who use RHCCTM Program funding to 

support COVID–19 mitigation and other 

related expenses. These data are critical 

to meet FORHP’s requirements to 

monitor and report on how federal 

funding is being used and to measure 

the effectiveness of the RHCCT Program 

and RHCCTM Program. Revisions 

include a confirmation page for TIN 

organization self-certification following 

completion of each program after the 

period of availability. Specifically, these 

data will be used to assess the 

following: 

• Whether program funds are being 

spent for their intended purposes; 

• COVID–19 testing or testing related 

use(s) of RHCCTM funds; 

• COVID–19 mitigation or mitigation 

related use(s) of RHCCTM funds; 

• Where COVID–19 testing supported 

by these funds is occurring; 

• Number of at-home (i.e., home 

collection; direct-to-consumer; over-thecounter) COVID–19 tests distributed 

(optional); 

• Number of COVID–19 tests; 

• Number of positive COVID–19 tests; 

• TIN organizations self-certification 

of complete expenditure of RHCCT 

Program funds and/or full or partial 

return of RHCCT Program funds; and 

• TIN organizations self-certification 

of complete expenditure of RHCCTM 

Program funds and/or full or partial 

return of RHCCTM Program funds. 

Likely Respondents: Respondents are 

TIN organizations who own or operate 

one or more RHC who received funding 

for COVID–19 testing, COVID–19 

mitigation, and related expenses. 

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
