I. Background
FDA is announcing the availability of
a guidance entitled ‘‘Guidance for
Industry: Measures to Address the Risk
for Contamination by Salmonella
Species in Food Containing a PeanutDerived Product as an Ingredient.’’ This
guidance is intended to clarify for
manufacturers who produce foods
containing a peanut-derived product as
an ingredient that there is a risk that
Salmonella species (spp.) may be
present in the incoming peanut-derived
product, and to recommend measures to
address that risk. Peanut-derived
products include peanuts, peanut
butter, peanut paste, peanut meal, and
peanut granules.
In the recent past, products made
from peanuts have been associated with
two large, multi-state Salmonella
outbreaks. The first of these, an outbreak
of Salmonella Tennessee in 2007 linked
to peanut butter, resulted in more than
600 illnesses in 47 states (Ref. 1). More
recently, peanut butter and peanut paste
have been confirmed as the source of a
large multi-state outbreak caused by
Salmonella Typhimurium (Ref. 2).
Peanut-derived products that have been
recalled have been used as ingredients
in other products such as cookies,
crackers, cereal, candy, and ice cream.
This had led to additional recalls.
FDA is issuing this guidance as a level
1 guidance consistent with FDA’s good
guidance practices regulation § 10.115
(21 CFR 10.115). Consistent with FDA’s
good guidance practices regulation, the
agency will accept comment, but is
implementing the guidance document
immediately in accordance with
§ 10.115(g)(2) because the agency has
determined that prior public

participation is not feasible or
appropriate in light of the need to
respond expeditiously to the current
circumstances. The guidance represents
the agency’s current thinking on
measures to address the risk for
contamination by Salmonella spp. in
foods containing a peanut-derived
product as an ingredient. It does not
create or confer any rights for or on any
person and does not operate to bind
FDA or the public. An alternate
approach may be used if such approach
satisfies the requirements of the
applicable statutes and regulations.

Interested persons may submit to the
Division of Dockets Management (see

collection requests under review by the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB), in compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44

Proposed Project: Patient Navigator
Outreach and Chronic Disease
Prevention Demonstration Program
Patient Data Collection Form—[New]
The purpose of the Patient Navigator
Outreach and Chronic Disease
Prevention (PN) Demonstration Program
is to promote model ‘‘patient navigator’’
programs to improve health care
outcomes for individuals with cancer
and/or other chronic diseases, with a
specific emphasis on health disparity
populations. This program aims to
coordinate comprehensive health
services for patients in need of chronic
disease care and management through
enhanced chronic disease management
provided by patient navigators.
In order to describe successful PN
program models and make
recommendations on the ability of such
programs to improve patient outcomes,
data is needed at the individual patient,
patient navigator, and PN program
levels. This information includes:
fi Sociodemographics of patients
(e.g., insurance status, income,
education level, gender, age, race and
ethnicity, primary language, number of
family dependents) served;
fi Patient access barriers to standard
chronic disease care (e.g., access to
pharmaceuticals, distance of patient’s
home from health care facilities utilized,
primary mode of transportation to
health care facilities utilized, cultural
and linguistic barriers as well as literacy
levels);
fi Health care service utilization
(e.g., screening rates, compliance rate
for appointments and follow-up exams,

time interval between diagnosis or
referral and resolution date);
fi Patient health status (e.g., type and
stage of diagnosis, chronic disease
status, final outcome or result); and
fi Patient navigation data (e.g., type
of navigator, patient navigation training
plans and outcomes, point at which
patient navigator was brought into the
process, number of patients referred,
personal information will be deidentified to protect the confidentiality
of all patients. Data collection and
disclosure processes will abide by
Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act (HIPPA) Privacy
Rule provisions and procedures.
The annual estimate of burden is as
follows:
how patient barriers were resolved,
patient satisfaction, follow-up
outcomes—such as number of
uninsured who get health coverage).
This information will be collected from
patients or their designated caregiver,
patient navigators, and PN program
administrators. Maintaining
confidentiality of patient medical
information is a concern and thus all
