SUMMARY:

other aspect of this collection of
information, including any of the
following subjects: (1) The necessity and
utility of the proposed information
collection for the proper performance of
the agency’s functions; (2) the accuracy
of the estimated burden; (3) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information to be collected; and
(4) the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology to minimize the information
collection burden.
Information Collection Request Title:
National Survey of Health Information
Exchange Organizations (HIO).
Abstract: Electronic health
information exchange (HIE) is one of
three goals specified by Congress in the
2009 Health Information Technology for
Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH)
Act to ensure that the $30 billion federal
investment in electronic health records
(EHRs) results in higher-quality, lowercost care. The ability of providers to
share data electronically is a core goal
of HITECH and a central feature of a
high-performing healthcare delivery
system. Greater EHR adoption without
data flowing between systems
substantially limits quality and
efficiency gains as well as reduces the
value of the health IT investment.
There is growing consensus that
achieving broad-based HIE is one of the
most difficult components of HITECH.
This is because successful HIE at scale
involves coordination between many
stakeholders, including but not limited
to federal and state policymakers,
healthcare delivery organizations, EHR
and HIE vendors, and specific

organizations supporting HIE, such as
health information organizations (HIOs)
and health information service
providers (HISPs). Further, the issues
requiring coordination are diverse,
spanning technical standards, consent
regulations, business models and
incentives, workflow integration, trust
and governance, and information
privacy and security.
Three HIE issues have proven
particularly challenging:
Implementation of and use of standards,
information blocking, and
sustainability. The ultimate goal of our
project is to administer a survey
instrument to HIOs in order to generate
the most current national statistics and
associated actionable insights on
electronic health information exchange
to inform policy efforts.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: Collecting timely, national
data from HIOs in the three domains of
standards, information blocking, and
sustainability is valuable to inform both
HIE-specific policy efforts as well as
broader health system reform efforts. By
developing a survey instrument
addressing these topics, collecting
national data from a census of HIOs
(and related HIE efforts), and analyzing
the data to identify important new
insights, the proposed project fills a
critical gap in current knowledge and
will provide policymakers with
actionable results to inform progress
towards greater interoperability and
exchange of clinical data.
Likely Respondents: Given the
relatively small number of HIOs in the
U.S.

SUMMARY:

Likely Respondents: Federal financial
assistance awardees.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions, to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information, to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information, to search
data sources, to complete and review
the collection of information, and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for the ICs are
summarized in the table below.
HHS estimates that the form will take
1 hour to complete each form.
Once OMB approves the use of the
SF–270 Request for Advance or
Reimbursement form as a common form,
federal agencies may request OMB
approval to use this common form
without having to publish notices and
request public comments for 60 and 30
days. Each agency must account for the
burden associated with their use of the
common form.
