Letter & Comments to OASH: Document 0990-0313-30D Agency Information Collection Request: National Blood Collection & Utilization Survey (NBCUS)

By America's Blood Centers

Re: Document 0990-0313 Agency Information Collection Request: National Blood Collection
& Utilization Survey (NBCUS)

Thank you very much to the OASH and CDC staff working on the NBCUS for providing responses to ABC’s comments, dated May 24, 2021, on the draft 2021 NBCUS. We reviewed the responses received August 26, 2021 and provided our additional comments and clarification in the attachment.

As the critical blood shortage continues in the US, the importance of the NBCUS as a vital tool in assessing ongoing trends in the U.S. blood industry is even more apparent. As the only source of comprehensive data on blood collection and usage available for both public and private stakeholders, the report supports benchmarking and surveillance, ongoing research, regulatory needs, disaster planning, and national security concerns.
