Request for Approval under the “Generic Clearance for the Collection of Routine Customer Feedback” (OMB Control Number: 0579-0377)


Shape1 TITLE OF INFORMATION COLLECTION:


National List of Reportable Animal Diseases Electronic Lab Reporting Requirements Gathering Survey for Laboratories

PURPOSE:


APHIS will collect information from State animal health laboratories to generate requirements for an Electronic Lab Reporting (ELR) feature for the National List of Reportable Animal Diseases (NLRAD). Feedback from U.S. laboratory directors and information technology professionals will include how they are currently reporting and ideas on future laboratory results reporting using enhanced electronic methods.


The ELR will make submitting laboratory results faster, easier, more extensive, and more consistent for state and private laboratories. The survey is critical for identifying system requirements and building the ELR. Without comprehensive requirements, the likelihood of the system not meeting all user needs is high. The impact of realizing this risk will be increased government costs to revise the system, increased burden on stakeholders to provide the laboratory results, and decreased data quality.
