DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

National Institutes of Health


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request; NHLBI Health 
Information Center's Revolving Customer Satisfaction Survey

    Summary: Under the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the National Heart, Lung and Blood 
Institute (NHLBI), the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has 
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for 
review and approval of the information collection listed below. This 
proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal 
Register on May 7, 2009, page 21372, and allowed 60 days for public 
comment. No public comments were received. The purpose of this notice 
is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment. The National 
Institutes of Health may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is 
not required to respond to, an information collection that has been 
extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless 
it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    Proposed Collection: Title: NHLBI Health Information Center's 
Revolving Customer Satisfaction Survey. Type of Information Collection 
Request: New. Need and Use of Information Collection: The purpose of 
this survey is to identify those areas in which services provided by 
the NHLBI Health Information Center (HIC) to health professionals, 
patients and their families, and the general public are outstanding and 
areas where improvements are needed. That information will be used to 
formulate programs, processes, training, and enhancements to raise the 
level of customer satisfaction with the services provided by the NHLBI 
HIC. With subsequent surveys, data will demonstrate whether gains have 
been made in areas for improvement and if new customer needs must be 
addressed. Frequency of Response: Twice a year. Affected Public: 
Individuals. Type of Respondents: Individuals who contact the NHLBI HIC 
by telephone or e-mail during each 1-month data collection period. The 
annual reporting burden is as follows: Estimated Number of Respondents: 
99; Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 1; Average Burden 
Hours Per Response: 0.05; and Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours 
Requested: 9.9. The annualized cost to respondents is estimated at: 
$242.15. There are no Capital Costs, Operating Costs, and/or 
Maintenance Costs to report.
