These activities will facilitate the quick and efficient identification of cases in future outbreaks and protect the health and safety of patients. This request corresponds with an initial ongoing data collection (Phase I), State Health Department Access to Electronic Health Record Data during an Outbreak: A Retrospective Assessment, which involves interviews with four types of Health Department staff: Healthcareassociated infection coordinator, epidemiologist, legal counsel, and informatics director (OMB Number 0920–0879, approved on 04/24/2014). Phase I data analysis is ongoing. For Phase II of this study, we will be requesting participation from hospital and clinic staff in their official capacities across the same 15 states included in the Phase I request. The investigation. In hospitals, the evaluation team will be conducting interviews with staff members serving in one of three roles: Infection preventionist, informatics director, and other as referred (e.g. privacy officer, risk management, etc.). In clinics, the evaluation team will be conducting interviews with the clinic director, and other as referred (e.g. patient records manager, etc.) The maximum estimates for burden hours are derived from interview guide pilot testing and data collection with HDs during Phase I data collection, in which interviews took 27 minutes. The total annual burden is 90 hours. The data to be collected do not involve questions of a personal or sensitive nature and should have no impact on the individual’s privacy. There are no costs to the respondents other than their time. states chosen for Phase I and Phase II data collections are: Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Data will be collected from 150 hospital and clinic staff in their official capacities using one 30-minute telephone interview per person and limiting interviews to two hospitals and two clinics per state. Hospital participants include: Infection preventionists, informatics directors, and others as referred. Clinic participants include: Clinic directors and others as referred. The focus of this OMB request is to conduct interviews with 150 healthcare facilities’ staff, hospitals and clinics, in their official capacity who has been asked by HDs to provide access to their EHRs during an HAI outbreak ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Number of respondents Number of responses per respondent .............................................. .............................................. .............................................. .............................................. 15 30 30 30 1 1 1 1 Interview Guide ..............................................

The Campaign continued in 2013 and 2014 with advertisements known as ‘‘Tips from Former Smokers.’’ Activities for Phase 3 of the campaign are ongoing.

New media activities for Phases 4 and 5 of The Campaign are scheduled to launch in March 2015. To support evaluation of The Campaign through Phase 5, CDC plans to field four new waves of information collection. The surveys will be fielded in English and Information will be collected through Web surveys to be self-administered on computers in the respondents’ homes or in another convenient location. Information will be collected about smokers’ and nonsmokers’ awareness of and exposure to specific campaign advertisements; knowledge, attitudes, beliefs related to smoking and secondhand smoke; and other marketing exposure. The surveys will also measure behaviors related to smoking cessation (among the smokers in the sample) and behaviors related to nonsmokers’ encouragement of smokers to quit smoking, recommendations of cessation services, and attitudes about other tobacco and nicotine products. It is important to evaluate The Campaign in a context that assesses the dynamic nature of tobacco product marketing and uptake of various tobacco products, particularly since these may affect successful cessation rates.

The ABS-sourced longitudinal cohort will consist of smokers and nonsmokers who have not previously participated in any established online panels to reduce potential panel conditioning bias from previous participation. The new cohort will be recruited by GfK, utilizing similar recruitment methods that are used in the recruitment of KnowledgePanel. The GfK KnowledgePanel will be used in combination with the new ABS-sourced cohort to support larger sample sizes that will allow for more in-depth subgroup analysis, which is a key objective for CDC. All online surveys, regardless of sample source, will be conducted via the GfK KnowledgePanel Web portal for self-administered surveys.

Proposed Project

    Extended Evaluation of the National Tobacco Prevention and Control 
Public Education Campaign--New--National Center for Chronic Disease 
Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control 
and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    In 2012, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) launched 
the first federally funded, national mass media campaign to educate 
consumers about the adverse health consequences of tobacco use (the 
National Tobacco Prevention and Control Public Education Campaign, or 
``The Campaign''). The Campaign continued in 2013 and 2014 with 
advertisements known as ``Tips from Former Smokers.'' Activities for 
Phase 3 of the campaign are ongoing. To assess the impact of The 
Campaign in Phases 1-3, CDC obtained OMB approval to conduct a series 
of longitudinal surveys of smokers and nonsmokers (OMB Control Number 
0920-0923, exp. 3/31/2017).
    New media activities for Phases 4 and 5 of The Campaign are 
scheduled to launch in March 2015. To support evaluation of The 
Campaign through Phase 5, CDC plans to field four new waves of 
information collection. The surveys will be fielded in English and 
Spanish and will occur during late 2015, 2016, and early 2017. Once 
enrolled in the first wave of data collection, all participants will be 
re-contacted for follow-up at subsequent survey waves.
    The sample for the data collection will originate from two sources: 
(1) An online longitudinal cohort of smokers and nonsmokers, sampled 
randomly from postal mailing addresses in the United States (address-
based sample, or ABS); and (2) the existing GfK KnowledgePanel, an 
established long-term online panel of U.S. adults. The ABS-sourced 
longitudinal cohort will consist of smokers and nonsmokers who have not 
previously participated in any established online panels to reduce 
potential panel conditioning bias from previous participation. The new 
cohort will be recruited by GfK, utilizing similar recruitment methods 
that are used in the recruitment of KnowledgePanel. The GfK 
KnowledgePanel will be used in combination with the new ABS-sourced 
cohort to support larger sample sizes that will allow for more in-depth 
subgroup analysis, which is a key objective for CDC. All online 
surveys, regardless of sample source, will be conducted via the GfK 
KnowledgePanel Web portal for self-administered surveys.
    Information will be collected through Web surveys to be self-
administered on computers in the respondents' homes or in another 
convenient location. Information will be collected about smokers' and 
nonsmokers' awareness of and exposure to specific campaign 
advertisements; knowledge, attitudes, beliefs related to smoking and

measure behaviors related to smoking cessation (among the smokers in 
the sample) and behaviors related to nonsmokers' encouragement of 
smokers to quit smoking, recommendations of cessation services, and 
attitudes about other tobacco and nicotine products.

the dynamic nature of tobacco product marketing and uptake of various 
tobacco products, particularly since these may affect successful 
cessation rates. Survey instruments may be updated to include new or
