Information Collection Request Title:
Education and Training of Healthcare
Providers as a Coordinated Public
Health Response to Violence Against
Women
Abstract: The Office on Women’s
Health (OWH) recently received an
approval by OMB 0990–0422 which
expires August 31, 2015; however OWH
is now requesting a one year extension
to further conduct the pilot and
evaluation of an eLearning course
developed as part of the ‘‘Education and
Training of Healthcare Providers as a
Coordinated Public Health Response to
Violence Against Women Project’’. The
purpose of this data collection is to
gather data from healthcare providers
who have volunteered to participate in
the pilot and evaluation of an e-learning
course designed to educate and train
healthcare providers on how to respond
to intimate partner violence (IPV)
against women. Information obtained
from this data collection will be used to
identify areas of improvement and
measure the effectiveness of the elearning course in educating healthcare
providers about IPV, addressing
attitudinal barriers to IPV screening, and
increasing IPV screening in clinical
practice. This data will also help
identify any problems in the navigation
and functioning of the e-learning course.
The results of this evaluation will assist
OWH in making revisions to the course
and subsequently coordinating a
national launch, making the e-learning
course available to healthcare providers
across the U.S. All data collection forms
and activities will be used within a year
time frame.
Likely Respondents: The respondents
for this pilot and evaluation are
healthcare providers (physicians,
nurses, and social workers) who are
members of professional associations
and who provide services in Nevada,
Oklahoma, and South Carolina.

Proposed Project
Clinic Context Matters Study—New—
National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral
Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention,
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The daily use of specific antiretroviral
medications by persons without HIV
infection, but at high risk of sexual or
injection exposure to HIV, has been
68885
shown to be a safe and effective HIV
prevention method. The Food and Drug
Administration approved the use of
Truvada® for preexposure prophylaxis
PrEP) in July 2012 and CDC has issued
Public Health Service clinical practice
guidelines for its use.
Because approximately 50,000 new
HIV infections continue to occur in the
U.S. each year, with rates of HIV
infection increasing most rapidly for
young MSM and because severe
disparities in HIV infection continue
among African-American men and
women, incorporation of PrEP into HIV
prevention is important. However, as a
prevention tool in very early stages of
introduction and use, there is much we
need to learn about how to implement
PrEP in real-world settings.
CDC is requesting OMB approval to
collect data over a 3-year period that
will be used to conduct research among
clinicians about their knowledge,
attitudes, and practices related to a new
intervention (PrEP) over the period of its
initial introduction in their clinics. The
knowledge gained will be used to refine
measurement instruments and methods
(for example, identify modifications to
questions in the current surveys that are
unclear to participants), develop
training and educational resources and
tools for use by CDC/DHAP (Division of
HIV/AIDS Prevention)-funded partners,
and other organizations supporting
delivery of PrEP in clinical settings. The
project will be conducted in clinics in
each of four cities (Houston, Newark,
Chicago, and Philadelphia) where PrEP
has recently become available at local
community health centers. Once per
year for 3 years, CDC will conduct an
online survey of clinicians at
participating clinics to collect data on
the demographics of the respondents
and their knowledge, attitudes,
practices, and organizational factors
related to PrEP and its delivery in their
clinics. Surveys will be administered
through an online survey Web site.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total annual
burden hours are 88.
