Title of the Collection: United States Core Data for Interoperability New Data Element Submission Form.

OMB No.: 0955-0020-Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology-United States Core Data for Interoperability.
Abstract: The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology is seeking the extension of approval with revision for the information collection request item "United States Core Data for Interoperability (USCDI) New Data Element Submission Form." The USCDI is a standardized set of health data classes and constituent data elements used to support nationwide, interoperable health information exchange. The USCDI Version 1 is the required standard data elements set to which all health IT developers must conform to obtain ONC certification. This certification is required for participation in some federal healthcare payment plans. In order to insure the USCDI remains current and reflects the needs of the health IT community, ONC has established a predictable, transparent, and collaborative process to solicit broad stakeholder input to expand the USCDI. Anyone, including ONC staff, staff from other federal agencies, and other stakeholders may submit proposals for new data elements and classes. ONC will evaluate each submission and provide feedback to the submitter. ONC will draft a new version of the USCDI based on these submissions and this draft will undergo review by ONC's federal advisory committee, the Health Information Technology Advisory Committee (HITAC), as well as by the general public. Upon approval by the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, new data classes and data elements from these submissions will be added to the newest version of the USCDI standard for integration into health information technology products such as electronic health records. ONC is seeking approval to continue to collect this information from health IT stakeholders, with some revisions to the information requested.

Likely Respondents: Likely respondents to this new submission system will be various health IT stakeholders including health care providers, standards development organizations, health IT developers and vendors as well as members of the HITAC.
