CDC Gives The Public More Time To Review Syringe Program Survey
Published Date: 11/9/2026
Notice
Summary
The CDC is asking for public feedback on their National Survey of Syringe Services Programs to make sure the info they collect is useful and not too much work. They’re giving everyone 30 more days to share thoughts before final approval. This affects people running syringe programs and aims to keep data collection smart and efficient without extra costs or hassle.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
35‑Minute Survey Creates Time Burden
If you run a syringe services program (SSP), CDC will invite up to 1,000 programs to complete the National Survey of Syringe Services Programs. The survey is voluntary, takes 35 minutes to complete, CDC estimates about 800 completed responses (20% may decline), and CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 583 annualized burden hours; there is no cost to respondents other than their time.
Multiple Response Options to Ease Participation
CDC offers multiple ways for SSPs to complete the survey — secure web-based systems such as REDCap, telephone interview, or videoconference — and will send reminder letters during an approximately 6-month data collection period to enhance feasibility and comfort in responding.
