This emergency
ICR is approved as revised by HHS for 6 months and covers only the
(a) letters of intent and (b) the application portion of the FOA.
ONC shall promptly begin the process of submitting an ICR for the
post-award reporting requirements so that emergency processing is
not necessary and the public has a chance to comment on them before
they are issued. ONC is reminded that all burden changes that stem
from statute should be captured as such. Consistent with approvals
for prior ICRs, ONC also understands that any additional questions
beyond those contained in SF-424 require separate approval.
Finally, ONC is reminded that the FOA itself should be submitted as
part of the ICR package.

additional individuals to fulfill vital health information
technology ("health IT") professional roles in the clinical and
public health settings.
The Office of National
Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) is requesting
emergency action for this clearance by the Office of Management and
Budget no later than 12/15/09. ONC is requesting emergency

effectively.
