Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection Comment Request
In compliance with the requirement for opportunity for public comment on proposed data collection projects (section 3506(c)(2) of Title 44, United States Code, as amended by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13), the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) will publish periodic summaries of proposed projects being developed for submission to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. To request more information on the proposed project or to obtain a copy of the data collection plans, call the HRSA Reports Clearance Officer on (301) 443-1129.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques of other forms of information technology.
Proposed Project: Sentinel Centers Network Technical Assistance Needs Assessment (NEW)
HRSA's Bureau of Primary Health Care (BPHC) established the Sentinel Centers Network (SCN) to assist in addressing critical quality, programmatic, and policy issues. Health centers submit core data periodically that is extracted from existing information systems. In order to assess needs for technical assistance (TA), information will be requested from centers regarding current information systems, updates/changes to information systems, and other TA needs. This information will be collected periodically via a project Web site and will be used to manage the ongoing needs of network participants.
The burden estimate for this project is as follows:
| Form | Number of respondents | Number of responses per respondent | Total responses | Hours per response | Total burden hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TA Inventory | 38 | 4 | 152 | .25 | 38 |
Send comments to Susan G. Queen, Ph.D., HRSA Reports Clearance Officer, Room 10-33 Parklawn Building, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, Maryland 20857. Written comments should be received with 60 days of this notice.
Dated: March 1, 2006.

Director, Division of Policy Review and Coordination.
