Proposed Collection; Comment Request; California Health Interview
Survey Cancer Control Module (CHIS-CCM) 2011 (NCI)
SUMMARY: In compliance with the requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, for opportunity for public comment
on proposed data collection projects, the National Cancer Institute
(NCI), the National Institutes of Health (NIH) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed projects to be submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval.
Proposed Collection: Title: California Health Interview Survey
Cancer Control Module (CHIS-CCM) 2010. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision. Need and Use of Information Collection: The NCI has
sponsored five Cancer Control Modules in the California Health
Interview Survey (CHIS), and will be sponsoring a sixth to be
administered in 2011. CHIS is a telephone survey that collects
population-based, standardized health-related data to assess
California's progress in meeting Healthy People 2010 objectives for the
nation and the State. The CHIS sample is designed to provide
statistically reliable estimates statewide, for California counties,
and for California's ethnically and racially diverse population.
Initiated by the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research, the California
Department of Health Services, and the California Public Health
Institute, the survey is funded by a number of public and private
sources. It was first administered in 2001 to 55,428 adults and
subsequently in 2003 to 42,043 adults, in 2005 to 43,020 adults, and in
2007 to 48,150 adults. These adults are a representative sample of
California's non-institutionalized population living in households.
CHIS 2011 is planned for continual administration to 48,150 adults and
3,316 adolescent Californians. This study will allow NCI to examine
patterns and trends in cancer screening and follow-up, as well as to
study other cancer-related topics such as tobacco control, diet,
physical activity, obesity, and human papillomavirus. Additionally,
CHIS is designed to be comparable to the National Health Interview
Survey (NHIS) data in order to conduct comparative analyses. CHIS
provides enhanced estimates for cancer risk factors and screening among
racial/ethnic minority populations. Frequency of Response: Once.
Affected public: Individuals. Types of Respondents: U.S. adults and
adolescents (persons 12 years of age and older). The total annual
burden hours requested are 2,177 (see Table 1). There are no Capital
Costs, Operating Costs, and/or Maintenance Costs to report.

Request for Comments: Written comments and/or suggestions from the
public and affected agencies are invited on one or more of the
following points: (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proposed performance of the function of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) The
accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the validity of the methodology
and assumptions used; (3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) Ways to minimize
the burden of the collection of information on those who are to
respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms
of information technology.
