Analyzed Economic Effects

Large time burden on grant recipients
If your organization receives CDC funding, you may be asked to fill out CDC performance-measure forms that take time. CDC estimates 4,973 organizations will respond and that the total annual burden is 104,949 hours — new recipients: 1,750 responses at about 40 hours each (70,000 hours); continuing recipients: 3,223 responses at about 10.84 hours each (34,949 hours). Participation is voluntary and CDC says there are no costs other than your time.
CDC provides tools and technical help
CDC will provide tools, templates, and technical assistance to help CDC-funded programs develop and implement performance measures. The Revision reflects expanded technical assistance and is available to participating CDC programs, including programs developing new non-research NOFOs or currently collecting data under an approved NOFO.
