Proposed Project
National Public Health Performance Standards Program Local Public
Health System Assessment (OMB 0920-0555 exp. 8/31/10)--Extension--
Office of State, Tribal, Local and Territorial Support, Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Office of State, Tribal, Local and Territorial Support is
proposing to extend the formal, voluntary data collection that assesses
the capacity of local public health systems to deliver the essential
services of public health. Local health departments will respond to the
survey on behalf of the collective body of representatives from the
local public health system. Electronic data submission will be used
when local public health agencies complete the public health
assessment.
A three-year approval is being sought with the current data
collection instrument. The data collection instrument has been valuable
in assessing performance and capacity and identifying areas for
improvement.
From 1998-2002, the National Public Health Performance Standards
Program convened workgroups with the National Association of County and
City Health Officials (NACCHO), The Association of State and
Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO), the National Association of Local
Boards of Health (NALBOH), the American Public Health Association
(APHA), and the Public Health Foundation (PHF) to develop performance
standards for public health systems based on the essential services of
public health. In 2005, CDC reconvened workgroups with these same
organizations to revise the data collection instruments, in order to
ensure the standards remain current and improve user friendliness.
There is no cost to the respondent, other than their time. The
estimated annualized burden hours are 5600.
