Proposed Project Quantitative Survey of Physician Practices in Laboratory Test Ordering The Quantitative Survey of Physician Practices in Laboratory Test Ordering and Interpretation is a national systematic study investigating how the rapid evolution of laboratory medicine is affecting primary care practice. This will be a new collection. The survey will be funded in full by the Office of Surveillance, Epidemiology, and Laboratory Services (OSELS) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The survey follows focus groups of fewer than ten participants with primary care physicians that identified common concerns and problems with laboratory test ordering and test interpretation. The survey will quantify the prevalence and impact of the issues identified within the focus groups. Understanding the relative importance of physician issues in the effective and efficient use of laboratory medicine in diagnosis will guide future efforts of the CDC to improve primary care practice and improve health outcomes of the American public. The survey covers basic physician demographic characteristics (year of birth, gender, years in practice, physician specialty, professional memberships, practice size and practice setting), practice-related questions including number and type of patients seen weekly. The majority of the questions request information about physician decision making processes involved in test ordering and interpretation. The effective use of laboratory testing is an important component of the diagnostic process within physician practices. The field of laboratory medicine is undergoing rapid change with the continuing introduction of new tests, increased focus on evidence-based medicine, the deployment of Electronic Health Records, and the wide availability to physicians of electronic information resources, interactive diagnostic tools, and computerized order entry systems. To date, no systematic study has been conducted to investigate how physicians are incorporating these laboratory testing innovations into their day-to-day practices. This survey seeks to provide insight into how physicians integrate laboratory medicine into their routines, and how they manage any challenges they encounter. The survey will be conducted on a national sample of primary care physicians. There are no costs to respondents except their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 373.

Proposed Project

Evaluation of Enhanced Implementation of the ``Learn the Signs. Act
Early.'' Campaign in 4 Target Sites,--New--National Center on Birth
Defects and Developmental Disabilities (NCBDDD), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

CDC's ``Learn the Signs Act Early'' campaign is a health education
campaign that aims to improve parent awareness of early child
development and improve early identification of children with autism
spectrum disorders and other developmental disabilities. The proposed
information collection activity will allow necessary evaluation of the
supplemental program to determine if the program has achieved its
intended goals; to identify efficient implementation strategies that
reach the greatest numbers of parents of young children within defined
population groups; and determine the effectiveness of those strategies
in changing parents' awareness of the campaign and behavior related to
monitoring early development.
This information collection activity will consist of two surveys of
parents of young children in the demographic groups and geographic
areas targeted by this enhanced implementation of the ``Learn the Signs
Act Early'' campaign; one at baseline (before campaign implementation)
and one at follow-up (near implementation end). The surveys will
capture information from the program's target audience to determine
campaign reach and exposure among this group, as well as identify
change in knowledge, awareness, and behavior related to the campaign
and monitoring early child development. The project aims to attain 250
completed parent surveys from each of the 4 sites at baseline and again
at follow-up (for a total of 2,000 completed surveys). It is estimated
that 2400 respondents will have to be screened in order to recruit 2000
total survey participants.
Participants will be recruited to participate in one of two surveys
that will be conducted in the following four target areas: Washington:
Yakima, Benton, Franklin, and Walla Walla counties; Missouri: St. Louis
City; Utah: Salt Lake County; and Alaska: Anchorage, Palmer, Wasilla,
Homer, Kenai.
This request is to obtain OMB clearance for two years. There are no
costs to the respondents other than their time.
