Proposed Project: Performance Report for Grants and Cooperative 
Agreements (OMB No. 0915-0061)--Revision

    The HRSA Bureau of Health Professions (BHPr) Performance Report for 
Grants and Cooperative Agreements is used to report grantee activities 
for Title VII and VIII health professions and nursing education and 
training programs. The reporting system measures the grantee's success 
in meeting (1) the objectives of the grant project, and (2) the cross-
cutting outcomes developed for the Bureau of Health Professions' Title 
VII and VIII health professions and nursing education and training 
programs. The reporting system has two parts: Part I of the performance 
report is designed to collect information on activities specific to a 
given program and Part II, the core performance measures, collects data 
on overall project performance related to BHPr's strategic goals, 
objectives, outcomes, and legislative requirements. Progress will be 
measured based on the objectives of the grant project, and outcome 
measures and indicators developed by the Bureau to meet requirements of 
the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) and other statutory 
authorities.
    BHPr is revising the grantee burden reported on the previous 
information collection request. As a result of eliminating multiple 
race combinations for two or more races, the hours per response has 
decreased. In addition, measures will be added to collect outcome data 
on a new program as a result of the Affordable Care Act (i.e., State 
Workforce Development Grants). New measures will also be added to 
collect outcome data on the State Primary Care Offices (PCOs) program 
and the Oral Health Program. Based on a more accurate estimation of 
BHPr grantees reporting, the hours per response is approximately 8.5 
hours.
    The estimated annual burden is as follows:
