Office of the Associate Director for 

Communication (OADC), Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

Today, CDC is globally recognized for 

conducting research and investigations 

and for its action oriented approach. 

CDC applies research and findings to 

improve people’s daily lives and 

responds to health emergencies— 

something that distinguishes CDC from 

its peer agencies. 

CDC is committed to achieving true 

improvements in people’s health. To do 

this, the agency is defining specific 

health protection goals to prioritize and 

focus its work and investments and 

measure progress. 

It is imperative that CDC provide 

high-quality timely information and 

programs in the most effective ways to 

help people, families, and communities 

protect their health and safety. Through 

continuous consumer feedback, 

prevention research, and public health 

information technology, we identify and 

evaluate health needs and interests, 

translate science into actions to meet 

those needs, and engage the public in 

the excitement of discovery and the 

progress being made to improve the 

health of the Nation. In our outreach to 

partners, we build relationships that 

model shared learning, mutual trust, 

and diversity in points of view and 

sectors of society. 

OADC is requesting a 3-year extension 

of OMB 0920–0798, Health Marketing, 

to provide feedback on the 

development, implementation and 

satisfaction regarding public health 

services, products, communication 

campaigns and information. The 

information will be collected using 

standard qualitative and quantitative 

methods such as interviews, focus 

groups, and panels, as well as 

questionnaires administered in person, 

by telephone, by mail, by e-mail, and 

online. More specific types of studies 

may include: User experience and usertesting; concept/product/package 

development testing; brand positioning/ 

identity research; customer satisfaction 

surveying; ethnography/observational 

studies; and mystery shopping. The data 

will be used to provide input to the 

development, delivery and 

communication of public health 

services and information at CDC and to 

address emerging programmatic needs. 

Every National Center and Office at 

CDC will have the opportunity to utilize 

this generic clearance. There is no cost 

to the respondents other than their time. 

The total estimated burden hours are 

11,250.

Proposed Project 

National Disease Surveillance 

Program II. Disease Summaries (0920– 

0004 Exp. 6/30/2013)—Revision— 

National Center for Emerging and 

Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID) 

(proposed), Centers for Disease Control 

and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

Surveillance of the incidence and 

distribution of disease has been an 

important function of the U.S. Public 

Health Service (PHS) since 1878. 

Through the years, PHS/CDC has 

formulated practical methods of disease 

control through field investigations. The 

CDC National Disease Surveillance 

Program is based on the premise that 

diseases cannot be diagnosed, 

prevented, or controlled until existing 

knowledge is expanded and new ideas 

developed and implemented. Over the 

years, the mandate of CDC has 

broadened to include preventive health 

activities and the surveillance systems 

maintained have expanded. 

CDC and the Council of State and 

Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) 

collect data on disease and preventable 

conditions in accordance with jointly 

approved plans. Changes in the 

surveillance program and in reporting 

methods are effected in the same 

manner. At the onset of this surveillance 

program in 1968, the CSTE and CDC 

decided on which diseases warranted 

surveillance. These diseases are 

reviewed and revised based on 

variations in the public’s health. 

Surveillance forms are distributed to the 

State and local health departments who 

voluntarily submit these reports to CDC 

at variable frequencies, either weekly or 

monthly. CDC then calculates and 

publishes weekly statistics via the 

Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report 

(MMWR), providing the states with 

timely aggregates of their submissions. 

The following diseases/conditions are 

included in this program: Diarrheal 

disease surveillance (includes 

campylobacter, salmonella, and 

shigella), foodborne outbreaks, arboviral 

surveillance (ArboNet), Influenza virus, 

including the annual survey and 

influenza-like illness, Respiratory and 

Enterovirus surveillance, rabies, 

waterborne diseases, cholera and other 

vibrio illnesses, Listeria, babesiosis, 

brucellosis, Harmful Algal Bloomrelated Infectious Surveillance System 

(HABISS) data entry form, and the 

HABISS monthly reporting form. These 

data are essential on the local, state, and 

Federal levels for measuring trends in 

diseases, evaluating the effectiveness of 

current prevention strategies, and 

determining the need for modifying 

current prevention measures. 

This request is for revision of the 

currently approved data collection for 

three years. The revisions include minor 

changes to reporting forms already 

approved under this OMB Control 

Number. In addition, new influenza 

forms and one new rabies form have 

been added. A new parasitic disease is 

being included, babesiosis, to help track 

the increasing cases from transfusions. 

Furthermore, a brucellosis case report 

form that has been revised and updated 

from the 1980 form has been added to 

this OMB Control number to enhance 

surveillance and assist with 

understanding the changing 

epidemiology of brucellosis in the 

United States. Because of the distinct 

nature of each of the diseases, the 

number of cases reported annually is 

different for each. There is no cost to 

respondents other than their time. The 

total estimated annualized burden hours 

are 36,126.
