4438 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 15 / Monday, January 26, 2009 / Notices 

calculated from a complete census of 

cable systems. The only way to 

accurately conclude that the 70/70 test 

has been met is to have the entire cable 

industry provide to the Commission the 

data for all cable systems. Specifically, 

we will require each cable operator to 

provide for 2006 and 2007 for each 

cable system on a zip code basis: (1) The 

total number of homes the cable 

operator currently passes; (2) the total 

number of homes the cable operator 

currently passes with 36 or more 

activated channels; (3) the total number 

of actual subscribers, including all 

subscribers in multiple dwelling units 

(MDUs); and (4) the total number of 

subscribers to systems with 36 or more 

activated channels. The submitted 

information will allow the Commission 

to calculate the 70/70 test for the entire 

universe of cable systems, which will be 

more accurate than relying on the 

available sample statistics. 

A cable operator may certify to the 

Commission that it does not possess the 

requested information for calendar year 

2006 and that it is not possible for the 

operator to compile such data for 

calendar year 2006. The Commission 

will provide cable operators that do not 

possess 2006 data with a certification 

form to be signed, dated, and returned 

to the Commission. This form will not 

impose any additional burden on cable 

operators.

Proposed Project 

Economic Analysis of the National 

Breast and Cervical Cancer Early 

Detection Program (NBCCEDP) (OMB 

No. 0920–0776 exp. 4/30/2009)— 

Revision—National Center for Chronic 

Disease Prevention and Health 

Promotion (NCDDPHP), Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

The CDC-funded National Breast and 

Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program 

(NBCCEDP) is the largest organized 

cancer screening program in the United 

States. The NBCCEDP provides critical 

breast and cervical cancer screening 

services to underserved women through 

grants to 50 states, the District of 

Columbia, 4 U.S. territories, and 13 

American Indian/Alaska Native 

organizations. In the past decade, the 

NBCCEDP has provided over 7.8 million 

breast and cervical cancer screening and 

diagnostic exams to over 3.2 million 

low-income women. Women diagnosed 

with cancer through the program are 

eligible for Medicaid coverage through 

the Breast and Cervical Cancer 

Prevention and Treatment Act passed by 

Congress in 2000. 

In 2008, CDC obtained OMB approval 

to collect one year of activity-based cost 

information from all 68 NBCCEDP 

grantees. With this revision request, 

CDC proposes to collect two additional, 

consecutive years of information and to 

implement a minor change to the data 

collection instrument, the Cost 

Assessment Tool (CAT), regarding 

screening activities supported through 

non-Federal funds. The additional 

information will allow CDC to calculate 

averages over time that reduce year-toyear fluctuations and provide better 

estimates of activity-based costs. 

The information is being collected to 

support activity-based analysis of the 

costs and cost-effectiveness of the 

NBCCEDP. The information will be used 

to assess the costs of various program 

components, identify factors that impact 

average cost, perform cost-effectiveness 

analysis, and to develop a resource 

allocation tool for ensuring the most 

appropriate use of limited program 

resources. The information required to 

perform an activity-based cost analysis 

includes: staff and consultant salaries, 

screening costs, contracts and material 

costs, provider payments, in-kind 

contributions, administrative costs, 

allocation of funds, and staff time 

devoted to specific program activities. 

Data will be collected electronically. 

NBCCEDP grantees currently report 

information on screening and diagnosis 

volumes (the effectiveness measures for 

the program) as part of the Minimum 

Data Elements (MDE) for the NBCCEDP 

(OMB 0920–0571, exp. 1/31/2010). Cost 

information to be collected through the 

CAT will complement information 

currently collected through the MDE 

project. 

There are no costs to respondents 

other than their time. The total
