Proposed Project Formative Research to inform the development of new recommendations for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Counseling, Testing, and Referral in non-health care settings—NewNational Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), Coordinating Center for Infectious Diseases (CCID), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description This project involves formative research to elicit consumer opinions on HIV counseling, testing, and referral (CTR) in non-health care settings. The study entails conducting focus groups with persons who are either HIV positive or at risk for HIV because of their drug injection or sexual behavior. The purpose of the focus groups is to explore: (1) Facilitators and barriers to using CTR services in non-health care settings; (2) ideal service components to decrease barriers to early diagnosis, decrease risk behaviors, link clients with follow-up care, and ensure client rights; (3) perceived risks and benefits of CTR; and (4) preferences for providing informed consent. CDC will use study findings to inform the development of new recommendations for HIV CTR in nonhealth care settings. We expect a total of 450 participants to be screened for eligibility. Of the 450 participants who are screened, we expect that 180 people will participate in a focus group. There are no costs to the respondents other than their time.

Proposed Project Medical Monitoring Project Provider Survey-New-National Center for HIV, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHSTP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description CDC is requesting a 3-year approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to survey randomly selected HIV care providers (e.g., physicians, nurse practitioners and physician’s assistants) in the United States regarding their training history, areas of specialization, ongoing sources of training and continuing education about HIV care, and awareness of HIV treatment guidelines and resources. Results from this survey will be used in conjunction with data from CDC’s Medical Monitoring Project (MMP) to assess who is providing HIV care, to examine the impact of provider characteristics on the quality and standard of care being provided to patients with HIV, to determine opportunities to improve resources available to HIV care providers, and to evaluate the reasons for sampled providers’ participation and nonparticipation in MMP. Participation in the survey is not contingent upon a provider’s involvement with the MMP. All selected HIV care providers will be asked to participate in the survey, regardless of their participation in the MMP. For this proposed data collection, MMP project areas have identified all HIV care providers in their jurisdictions and selected a sample of 40–60 providers in each jurisdiction to participate in MMP, including those providers who may not be participating in the MMP. CDC plans to survey these sampled providers. Respondents will have the option to use either a Webbased application or paper survey to participate in the survey. There is no cost to respondents to participate in this survey other than their time.

The evaluation will require participation from staff and students at 54 schools (18 treatment schools receiving the Safe Dates program with teacher training and observation, 18 treatment schools receiving the Safe Dates program without teacher training and observation, and 18 control schools not receiving the Safe Dates program). Implementation evaluation data will be collected primarily through Web questionnaires completed by principals, school prevention coordinators, and teachers delivering the program; effectiveness evaluation data will be collected via classroom scannable forms with ninth-graders who attend treatment or control schools; and cost evaluation data will be collected via a Web survey of teachers delivering the program who receive training and observation. High schools that agree to participation will be matched into sets of three. Characteristics that will be considered in the matching process include demographics and urban/rural county E:\FR\FM\22JAN1.SGM 22JAN1

Proposed Project

    Medical Monitoring Project Provider Survey-New-National Center for 
HIV, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHSTP), Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    CDC is requesting a 3-year approval from the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) to survey randomly selected HIV care providers (e.g., 
physicians, nurse practitioners and physician's assistants) in the 
United States regarding their training history, areas of 
specialization, ongoing sources of training and continuing education 
about HIV care, and awareness of HIV treatment guidelines and 
resources. Results from this survey will be used in conjunction with 
data from CDC's Medical Monitoring Project (MMP) to assess who is 
providing HIV care, to examine the impact of provider characteristics 
on the quality and standard of care being provided to patients with 
HIV, to determine opportunities to improve resources available to HIV 
care providers, and to evaluate the reasons for sampled providers' 
participation and non-participation in MMP. Participation in the survey 
is not contingent upon a provider's involvement with the MMP.
    All selected HIV care providers will be asked to participate in the 
survey, regardless of their participation in the MMP.
    For this proposed data collection, MMP project areas have 
identified all HIV care providers in their jurisdictions and selected a 
sample of 40-60 providers in each jurisdiction to participate in MMP, 
including those providers who may not be participating in the MMP. CDC 
plans to survey these sampled providers. Respondents will have the 
option to use either a Web-based application or paper survey to 
participate in the survey. There is no cost to respondents to 
participate in this survey other than their time.
