Proposed Project
Application Form and Related Forms for the Operation of the
National Death Index, (OMB No. 0920-0215, Expiration 12/31/2010)--
Extension--National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Section 306 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C.), as
amended, authorizes that the Secretary of Health and Human Services
(DHHS), acting through NCHS, shall collect statistics on the extent and
nature of illness and disability of the population of the United
States.
The National Death Index (NDI) is a national data base containing
identifying death record information submitted annually to NCHS by all
the state vital statistics offices, beginning with deaths in 1979.
Searches against the NDI file provide the states and dates of death,
and the death certificate numbers of deceased study subjects.
Using the NDI Plus service, researchers have the option of also
receiving cause of death information for deceased subjects, thus
reducing the need to request copies of death certificates from the
states. The NDI Plus option currently provides the International
Classification of Disease (ICD) codes for the underlying and multiple
causes of death for the years 1979-2007. Health researchers must
complete administrative forms in order to apply for NDI services, and
submit records of study subjects for computer matching against the NDI
file. A three-year clearance is requested. There is no cost to
respondents except for their time. The total estimated annual burden
hours are 182.
