Abstract:
The data comprising the Case Service Report (RSA-911) are mandated by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (the Act). Applicable portions of the Rehabilitation Act explicitly or implicitly require the recording and reporting of specific data elements by state vocational rehabilitation (VR) agencies to the Rehabilitation Services Administration (RSA). Section 13 of the Act requires the Commissioner to collect and report information specified in section 101(a) (10) to the Congress and the President in the Annual Report. Section 14 of the Act requires the Commissioner to conduct evaluations of the VR program. The information from this data collection is used in evaluating the outcomes of the program. Section 626 requires the same information to be reported for individuals who received supported employment (SE) services. RSA-911 data are also needed to satisfy the requirements of Section 131 calling for an exchange of data between RSA, the Social Security Administration and the Department of Labor.

Short Statement:
There is a program change increase of +2,900 annual burden hours. The estimated burden to the responding VR agencies captured in the prior inventory increased as a result of the proposed revisions to the RSA-911, necessitating additional time for staff to collect and submit the data. The data collection has expanded to better monitor agency performance in regard to individuals served, provision of services and their related costs.
