                 General Description of Collection: Durable Medical Equipment (DME)
                is any equipment that provides therapeutic benefits to a patient in
                need because of certain medical conditions and/or illness. They consist
                of items that are primarily and customarily used to serve a medical
                purpose; are not useful to a person in the absence of illness or
                injury; are ordered or prescribed by a physician; are reusable; can
                stand repeated use, and are appropriate for use in the home. Other
                devices covered in this guidance include prosthetic equipment (cardiac
                pacemakers), hearing aids, orthotic items (artificial devices such as
                braces and splints), and prostheses (artificial body parts). The
                information collected will assist in the determination of Peace Corps
                eligibility. If eligible, it will assist with ongoing care during
                service. All applicants to the Peace Corps must have a medical
                clearance that will determine their ability to serve in a particular
                country.
                 Request for Comment: Peace Corps invites comments on whether the
                proposed collections of information are necessary for proper
                performance of the functions of the Peace Corps, including whether the
                information will have practical use; the accuracy of the agency's
                estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information,
                including the validity of the information to be collected; and, ways to
                minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are
                to respond, including through the use of automated collection
                techniques, when appropriate, and other forms of information
                technology.
                 This notice is issued in Washington, DC, on August 19, 2020.
                Virginia Burke,
                FOIA/Privacy Act Officer, Management.
