Change Requests

What is an ICR?

An Information Collection Request (ICR) is a federal agency's request for approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information from the public. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), agencies must justify why the information is needed and how it will be used.

When are they submitted?

Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, modify an information collection. Each ICR includes a description of the collection, supporting materials and documentation (such as forms, surveys, or scripts), and proof that the agency has met the requirements of the PRA.

The ICR is submitted to the The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB for review and approval. OIRA grants approval for a maximum of three years, after which the collection must be renewed through a new ICR submission.

Where to find an ICR?

ICRs are publicly available on RegInfo.gov, and additional guidance can be found in the FAQs.

Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and July 19, 2025.

Defense Health Agency Patient Safety Culture Survey

Key Information

Abstract

The 2001 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) contains specific sections addressing patient safety in military and veterans’ health care systems. This legislation states that the Secretary of Defense shall establish a patient care error reporting and management system to study occurrences of errors in patient care and that one purpose of the system should be to “identify systemic factors that are associated with such occurrences” and “to provide for action to be taken to correct the identified systemic factors” (Sec. 754, items b2 and b3). In addition, the legislation states that the Secretary shall “continue research and development investments to improve communication, coordination, and teamwork in the provision of health care” (Sec. 754, item d4). As an ongoing response to this legislation, DHA Headquarters has implemented a web-based patient safety culture survey to obtain DHA staff opinions on patient safety issues. Participation in the DHA Patient Safety Culture Survey also fulfills The Joint Commission (TJC) accreditation requirements related to assessing patient safety culture and using the results to improve. As part of its Leadership Standards, TJC requires facility leaders regularly evaluate the culture of safety and quality using valid and reliable tools and prioritize and implement changes identified by the evaluation. Additionally, DHA inpatient military treatment facilities (MTFs) recently began participating in The Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade, an initiative that provides a letter grade rating of a hospital’s patient safety measures through more than 30 national performance indicators. Participation in the DHA Patient Safety Culture Survey provides MTFs with data and information assessed by The Leapfrog Group as part of the Hospital Safety Grade calculation.

Inpatient Psychiatric Facility Quality Reporting Program (CMS-10432)

Key Information

Abstract

Pursuant to section 1886(s)(4)(C) of the Social Security Act as added and amended by sections 3401 and 10322 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) and further amended by section 4125(c) of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, starting in FY 2014 (that is, October 1, 2013 through September 30, 2014) and for subsequent fiscal years, IPFs paid under the IPF PPS shall submit pre-defined quality measures to the CMS. Such data shall be submitted in a form and manner, and at a time specified by the Secretary. Section 1886(s)(4)(A) of the Act provides that IPFs that fail to submit data on the selected quality measures and comply with other administrative requirements will have their IPF prospective payment system (PPS) payment updates reduced by 2.0 percentage points. This is a revision of the currently approved information collection request. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS’) quality reporting programs promote higher quality, more efficient healthcare for Medicare beneficiaries by collecting and reporting on quality-of-care metrics. This information is made available to consumers, both to empower Medicare beneficiaries and inform decision-making, as well as to incentivize healthcare facilities to make continued improvements. Specifically, CMS has implemented quality measure reporting programs for multiple settings, including for the Inpatient Psychiatric Facility (IPF) setting, to achieve its overarching priorities and initiatives, including the National Quality Strategy and the Meaningful Measure 2.0 Framework. In particular, Meaningful Measures 2.0 promotes innovation and modernization of all aspects of quality to better address health care priorities and gaps, emphasize digital quality measurement, and promote patient perspectives by supporting five interrelated goals: (1) empower consumers to make good health care choices through patient-directed quality measures and public transparency, (2) leverage quality measures to promote health equity and close gaps in care, (3) streamline quality measurement, (4) leverage measures to drive outcome improvement through public reporting and payment programs, and (5) improve quality measure efficiency by transitioning to digital measures and using advanced data analytics. The information collection requirements for the FY 2014 through FY 2028 program years (that is, data submitted from CY 2013 through CY 2027) are currently approved under OMB control number 0938-1171 (expiration date January 31, 2027). This request covers updates to the data collection requirements beginning with the FY 2026 payment determination (that is data submitted in CY 2025) and subsequent years.

Key Information

Abstract

To facilitate the administration of the IMLS application and review processes for its discretionary grants and cooperative agreements, IMLS uses standardized application forms for eligible libraries, museums, and other organizations to apply for its funding. The forms submitted for public review in this Notice are the IMLS Library-Discretionary Program Information Form, the IMLS Museum Program Information Form, and the IMLS Supplementary Information Form. Beginning in FY2020, IMLS implemented the eGMS (Electronic Grants Management System) originally developed by the National Endowment for the Humanities and now used also by the National Endowment for the Arts and IMLS. The IMLS Library-Discretionary Program Information Form, the IMLS Museum Program Information Form, and the IMLS Supplementary Information Form are each included in one or more of the Grants.gov application packages associated with IMLS grant programs, and they automatically transmit data into eGMS through a system-to-system interface. In this clearance submission (3137-0092) and justification, IMLS requests approval of non-substantive changes to a previously approved clearance for the Grant Application Forms. The changes consist of: • Minor copy-edits to reflect updated goals and objectives and related conditional logic in the forms.

Flight Instructor Enhanced Qualification Training Program (FIEQTP): Preparation and Approval

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection is submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to request a three-year approval clearance for the information collection entitled “Flight Instructor Enhanced Qualification Training Program: Preparation and Approval.” The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is publishing a final rule to revise part 61 by creating two new qualification options for flight instructors to train initial flight instructor applicants, in addition to retaining the original qualification parameters as an option. Flight instructors seeking to instruct initial flight instructor applicants must satisfy one option to meet qualification requirements and, therefore, may choose between the three. One new option is the successful completion of an FAA-approved flight instructor enhanced qualification training program (FIEQTP), which may be offered by a part 141 pilot school or part 142 training center under the respective part. In order for training providers to offer an FIEQTP, they must submit specific course information to the FAA for approval. Additionally, the final rule requires part 141 pilot schools and part 142 training centers that offer an FIEQTP to provide certain documentation to its graduates.

Creel surveys are a common fishery management technique designed to determine the angler's catch of each species and the fishing time required to catch the fish. The objective of this collection is to educate Park managers about a park’s angling population and provide information on angling’s potential effects on park resources. Fisheries managers rely on creel surveys to gather biological information, monitor trends, and assess angler satisfaction.

Evaluation of Emergency Housing Voucher Program

Key Information

Abstract

This new collection, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), seeks to examine the implementation and outcomes associated with the Emergency Housing Voucher (EHV) program, which was created under the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) of 2021, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The EHV program awarded roughly 70,000 new Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV) to 611 public housing agencies (PHA) that were targeted to households experiencing or at-risk of experiencing homelessness. The collection aims to explore the structure of the EHV program compared to its analogous program, the Housing Choice Voucher program (HCV). Additionally, the evaluation will examine unique features of the EHV program, e.g., the partnerships formed between Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) and Continuums of Care (CoCs), and program features such as the use of administrative fees and waivers to assist program beneficiaries. In this context, HUD contracted with Social Policy Research Associates (SPR) and its subcontractor, Abt Global (Abt) (“the research team”), to evaluate the EHV program and collect data from three sources: 1) administrative data, 2) a national web survey of PHAs and CoCs, and 3) follow-up telephone interviews with a selected sample of PHAs, CoCs, and other PHA partner organizations in 25 communities. The evaluation will use a mixed-methods approach with administrative data and web survey data to measure outcomes in key interest areas. The follow-up telephone interviews will collect information on the experiences of program staff in implementing the EHV program. Data from this evaluation will help guide any future emergency housing voucher programs and could also inform possible changes to the HCV program to serve households who are experiencing or at risk of experiencing homelessness. The authority to collect this information is in Sections 501 and 502 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1970 (Public Law 91-609) (12 USC §§ 1701z-1; 1701z-2(d) and (g)).
