Background and Brief Description
CDC is launching an integrated ‘‘one
face to the public’’ approach across all
communication channels to handle
inquiries concerning a broad spectrum
of public health topics. The overall
objective is to ensure consistent, timely,
reliable health information for
dissemination to a variety of consumers
(public, health professionals,
researchers, etc.) and to address
variations in inquiry volumes related to
public health emergencies, news events,
and dynamic, shifting public health
priorities. The CDC has integrated over
40 hotlines into one Consumer
Response Services Center CDC–INFO.
CDC–INFO has an exceptionally wide
scope because content currently divided
between over 40 hotlines handling
nearly 2,000,000 telephone contacts
annually will be consolidated under
CDC–INFO. All CDC hotlines were
consolidated in one center beginning in
February 2005, with all CDC program
areas transitioning into CDC–INFO
through a phased approach during the
next three years. CDC–INFO itself will
be operational for at least the next seven
years. The primary objectives of the
national evaluation are to (1) Proactively
evaluate customer interactions and
service effectiveness by employing
assessment measures and data
collection mechanisms to support
performance management, gathering
insights and understandings for
improving service levels, and
implementing effective measures to
meet customer satisfaction goals; (2)
develop an ongoing understanding of
customer requirements and satisfaction
trends to achieve best of practice quality
standards and to provide qualitative
assessments, quantitative data, and cost
factors to drive improvement and
reinforce operational objectives; (3)
measure CDC–INFO contractor service
performance to assist in determining
whether performance incentives have
been achieved; and (4) to collect data in
order to address public concern and
response to emergencies, outbreaks, and
media events.
Sample size, respondent burden, and
intrusiveness have been minimized to
be consistent with national evaluation
objectives. Procedures will be employed
to safeguard the privacy and
confidentiality of participants. Pilot
tests assisted in controlling burden and
ensuring the user-relevance of
questions. The following table shows
the estimated annualized burden for
data collection. There are no respondent
