Proposed Project: Web-based Semi Annual Report (SAR): NEW

    The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Bureau of 
Primary Health Care (BPHC) plans to collect the annual reporting 
requirements for the primary care grantees funded by BPHC using a web-
based Semi Annual Report (SAR). The SAR includes reporting requirements 
for grantees of the following primary care programs: State Primary Care 
Associations and State Primary Care Offices. Authorizing legislation is 
found in Public Law 104-299, Health Center Consolidation Act of 1996, 
enacting Section 330 of the Public Health Service Act.
    BPHC collects data on its programs to ensure compliance with 
legislative mandates and to report to Congress and policymakers on 
program accomplishments. To meet these objectives, BPHC requires a core 
set of information collected semi-annually that is appropriate for 
monitoring and evaluating performance and reporting on annual trends. 
The SAR, completed by all grantees, provides data on services, 
characteristics of populations, leveraged funds, and services that fall 
within the scope of the grant.
    The estimated burden is a follows:
