This information collection is designed to collect the MDN and response-specific data as needed, for confirmed, probable, and suspected cases of any disease or condition that is the subject of an emergency response at CDC. During an emergency response, CDC uses case data to inform actions that need to be taken at all levels of public health and by the public. State, tribal, local, and territorial (STLT) health departments and CDC need to exchange data on confirmed, probable, and suspected cases rapidly. Timely notification of cases from STLT to CDC is critical to provide situational awareness at the federal level to support decision making, particularly for public health threats.
This Change Request is submitted to add new disease specific data elements (fields for outbreak status, CDC outbreak name, exposure dates, fields for 'other') for collection by CDC when individual GenICs are submitted under the 0920-1447 umbrella. Since each individual GenIC will differ, and will collect different data elements, there are no anticipated changes to the burden.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
