Abstract:
The Rural Health Care Coordination (Care Coordination) program is authorized under Section 330A(e) of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 254(e)), as amended, to “improve access and quality of care through the application of care coordination strategies with the focus areas of collaboration, leadership and workforce, improved outcomes, and sustainability in rural communities.” This authority permits the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy to support rural health consortiums/networks aiming to achieving the overall goals of improving access, delivery, and quality of care through the application of care coordination strategies in rural communities. HRSA collects this performance measures to monitor and assess the impact of the program, support grantees’ program compliance, guide the delivery of technical assistance, and shape federal program decisions related to rural health care services.

Short Statement:
There is a change in the total burden hours compared to the currently OMB-approved collection. The increase in burden is to account for changes to the instruments and the time it takes for awardees to refine their existing processes to coordinate and collect data from their partner organizations. These organizations vary in data collection and reporting capacity as well as in the number of member organizations each must coordinate with to report this data to HRSA. The amount of time it takes to build processes to coordinate and collect data from network partners will vary. Larger networks with multiple partners across different organizations are likely to report higher burdens due to the wait time in between coordinating data requests. Networks that already have established working relationships with member organizations may have existing processes in place to effectively collect data for this program.
