Proposed Project
Report of Verified Case of
Tuberculosis (RVCT), (OMB No. 0920–
0026 exp. 5/31/2014)—Extension—
National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral
Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention

(NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
In the United States, an estimated 10
to 15 million people are infected with
Mycobacterium tuberculosis and about
10% of these persons will develop
tuberculosis (TB) disease at some point
in their lives. The purpose of this
project is to continue ongoing national
tuberculosis surveillance using the
standardized Report of Verified Case of
Tuberculosis (RVCT). Data collected
using the RVCT help state and federal
infectious disease officials to assess
changes in the diagnosis and treatment
of TB, monitor trends in TB
epidemiology and outbreaks, and
develop strategies to meet the national
goal of TB elimination.
CDC currently conducts and
maintains the national TB surveillance
system (NTSS) pursuant to the
provisions of Section 301(a) of the
Public Service Act [42 U.S.C. 241] and
Section 306 of the Public Service Act
[42 U.S.C. 241(a)]. Data are collected by
60 reporting areas (the 50 states, the
District of Columbia, New York City,
Puerto Rico, and 7 jurisdictions in the
Pacific and Caribbean). The last major
revision of the RVCT data collection

66935

instrument was approved in 2009, in
consultation with CDC’s Division of
Tuberculosis Elimination (DTBE), state
and local health departments, and
partner organizations including the
National TB Controllers Association, the
Council for State and Territorial
Epidemiologists, and the Advisory
Committee for the Elimination of
Tuberculosis. No revisions to the RVCT
are proposed in this data collection
extension request.
CDC publishes an annual report using
RVCT data to summarize national TB
statistics and also periodically conducts
special analyses for publication to
further describe and interpret national
TB data. These data assist in public
health planning, evaluation, and
resource allocation. Reporting areas also
review and analyze their RVCT data to
monitor local TB trends, evaluate
program success, and focus resources to
eliminate TB.
No other Federal agency collects this
type of national TB data. In addition to
providing technical assistance on the
use of RVCT, CDC provides technical
support for reporting software. In this
request, CDC is requesting approval for
approximately 5,810 burden hours.
There is no cost to respondents except
for their time.

Proposed Project
Annual Survey of the National Breast
and Cervical Cancer Early Detection
Program (NBCCEDP) Grantees—New—
National Center for Chronic Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion
(NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
To improve access to cancer
screening, Congress passed the Breast
and Cervical Cancer Mortality
Prevention Act of 1990 (Public Law
101–354) which directed CDC to create

Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 216 / Thursday, November 7, 2013 / Notices

the National Breast and Cervical Cancer
Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP).
Currently, the NBCCEDP funds 67
grantees including all 50 states, the
District of Columbia, 5 U.S. territories,
and 11 American Indian/Alaska Native
tribes or tribal organizations. Grantees
provide screening services for breast
and cervical cancer to low-income,
uninsured, and underinsured women
who otherwise would not have access to
screening.
Since 1991, NBCCEDP-funded
grantees have served more than 4.3
million women, provided more than
10.7 million breast and cervical cancer
screening examinations, and diagnosed
more than 56,662 breast cancers, 3,206
invasive cervical cancers, and 152,470
premalignant cervical lesions, of which
41% were high-grade. As a
comprehensive, organized screening
program, the NBCCEDP supports
activities including program
management, partnership development,
public education and targeted outreach,
screening and diagnostic services,
patient navigation, quality assurance
and quality improvement, professional
development, data management and

utilization, and program monitoring and
evaluation. For clinical service delivery,
grantees fund health care providers in
their state/territory/tribe to deliver
breast and cervical cancer screening,
diagnostic evaluation, and treatment
referrals for women diagnosed with
cancer.
CDC issued a new Funding
Opportunity Announcement (FOA) to
support a new 5-year cooperative
agreement for the NBCCEDP effective
July 2012. This new FOA begins to shift
the NBCCEDP from a focus on direct
service provision to implementation of
expanded evidence-based activities
intended to increase rates of breast and
cervical cancer screening at the
population level. Though NBCCEDP
grantees continue to provide breast and
cervical cancer screening for uninsured
and underinsured women, CDC is
encouraging the implementation of
strategies to increase screening rates
beyond that of program-eligible women.
CDC plans to implement an annual
survey of NBCCEDP program directors
in order to assess program
implementation, particularly related to
these expanded population-based
efforts. The Web-based survey includes

questions on respondent background,
program activities, clinical service
delivery, monitoring and evaluation,
partnerships, training and technical
assistance needs, and program
management. Questions are of various
types including dichotomous and
multiple response. The estimated
burden per response is 45 minutes.
This assessment will enable CDC to
gauge its progress in meeting NBCCEDP
program goals, identify implementation
activities, monitor program transition to
efforts aimed at impacting populationbased screening, identify technical
assistance needs of state, tribe and
territorial health department cancer
control programs, and identify
implementation models with potential
to expand and transition to new settings
to increase program impact and reach.
The assessment will identify successful
activities that should be maintained,
replicated, or expanded as well as
provide insight into areas that need
improvement.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. Participation is voluntary and
there are no costs to respondents other
than their time.
