OMB approves this collection for a period of one year under the following conditions. The agency must: 1) Submit the rationale behind these instruments’ race and ethnicity question (Q17 from the SDSC questionnaire [Att. C-2] and Q25 from the RCC questionnaire [Att. C-1) that deviated from the OMB guidelines, and 2) add a note to the supporting statement A explaining your agency’s plan and timeline for revisions of the aforementioned instruments’ race and ethnicity questions to better align with the revised SPD 15 guidelines in one year. This package is conditionally cleared for a year, recognizing the following circumstances: 1) Categorization of Biracial or Multiracial Residents: There are inherent difficulties in accurately categorizing biracial or multiracial individuals under the current framework, which may impact data quality and inclusivity. 2) Use of proxy Respondents: The use of proxy respondents, such as center deputy directors relying on Electronic Health Records (EHRs), particularly in smaller centers, poses challenges in cases where race and ethnicity data may not be consistently documented. 3) Category for "Unknown" or "Not Reported" Races: There is an ongoing need for the inclusion of categories for "unknown" or "not reported" races to ensure the survey completion, especially when race or ethnicity information is unavailable.
