HRSA tweaks paperwork for baby home visits—yawn-worthy update alert

## Summary

HRSA is updating how it collects data from all 56 states, tribes, and territories about the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program. They want your feedback on the changes before February 20, 2026, to make sure the data collection is clear and not too much work. This helps improve support for families and young kids without adding extra costs.

## Abstract

In compliance with the requirement for opportunity for public comment on proposed data collection projects of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, HRSA announces plans to submit an Information Collection Request (ICR), described below, to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Prior to submitting the ICR to OMB, HRSA seeks comments from the public regarding the burden estimate, below, or any other aspect of the ICR.

## Effects PRIA read

- MIECHV Forms Streamlined and Revised: mixed, medium. HRSA is revising the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) data collection forms (Forms 1, 2, and 4) to remove some tables, combine others (e.g., Tables 1 and 2), renumber tables, reduce age and housing response categories, align race/ethnicity categories with OMB Statistical…
- New and Updated Clinical Measures Added: mixed, medium. HRSA is adding and updating clinical performance measures that MIECHV awardees must report: adding anxiety screening and a completed-anxiety-referrals sub-measure (Performance Measures 3 and 17), expanding the postpartum visit window to within 12 weeks (84 days) for Performance Measure 5, updating…
- Estimated Reporting Burden: 73,416 Annual Hours: cost, high. HRSA estimates the total annualized burden for the revised ICR is 73,416 hours across 56 respondents. The table in the notice shows Form 1 totals 25,088 hours (56 respondents × 448 hours), Form 2 totals 40,488 hours (56 × 723 hours), and Form 4 totals 7,840 hours (56 respondents × 4 responses × 35…
- Place-Based Services Reporting Moved to Annual: benefit, low. HRSA will add Section D: Place Based Services to Form 1 to collect information annually that was previously reported quarterly on Form 4 (moving that content from quarterly reporting to annual reporting).
