a copy of the clearance requests submitted to OMB for review, e-mail 
paperwork@hrsa.gov or call the HRSA Reports Clearance Office on (301)

    The following request has been submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget for review under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995:

Proposed Project: Sickle Cell Disease Treatment Demonstration Program 
(SCDTDP), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA): NEW

    In 2004 Congress enacted and the President signed into law Public 
Law 108-357, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004. Section 712 of 
Public Law 108-357 authorized a demonstration program for the 
prevention and treatment of Sickle Cell Disease. The legislation was 
enacted to (1) create an optional medical assistance program for 
individuals with Sickle Cell Diseases for treatment and education, 
genetic counseling and other services to prevent mortality and decrease 
morbidity from Sickle Cell Disease, and (2) create a demonstration 
program, the SCDTDP, under HRSA. The SCDTDP provides grants to 
federally-qualified and nonprofit health care providers to establish 
geographically distributed regional networks that will work with 
comprehensive Sickle Cell Disease centers and community-based support 
organizations to provide coordinated, comprehensive, culturally 
competent, and family-centered care to families with Sickle Cell 
Disease. In fiscal year 2006, HRSA awarded four, 4-year grants to the 
Illinois Sickle Cell Association Network, Alabama Network for Sickle 
Cell Care, Access, Prevention, and Education, Carolina Partnership for 
Sickle Cell Treatment Continuum of Care, and the Cincinnati Sickle Cell 
Network.
    Under the authorizing legislation, a National Coordinating Center 
(NCC) was established to (1) collect, coordinate, monitor, and 
distribute data, best practices and findings regarding the activities 
of the demonstration program, (2) identify a model protocol for 
eligible entities with respect to the prevention and treatment of 
Sickle Cell Disease, (3) identify educational materials regarding the 
prevention and treatment of Sickle Cell Disease, and (4) prepare a 
final report on the efficacy of the demonstration program based on 
evaluation findings.
    As part of the evaluation, pre and post utilization and 
satisfaction data and quality of life assessments will be collected 
from the demonstration clients during various phases of their 
participation. These data will be collected through medical record 
abstractions and self-report using hard copy questionnaires and 
submitted to the NCC for processing and analysis.
