Proposed Project: Patient Centered Care Collaboration to Improve Minority Health, OMB# 0990–New, Office of Minority Health. Abstract: The Office of Minority Health (OMH) in the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health (OASH), Office of the Secretary (OS) is requesting approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for new data collection activities for the Patient Centered Care Collaboration to Improve Minority Health project (PCCC). This dissemination and adoption initiative funded in 2010, under the ARRA, 2009, through the Office of Minority Health and the Agency for Health Care Quality supports dissemination and adoption priorities as outlined in the HHS Report to Congress on Comparative Effectiveness Research. The PCCC evaluation will assess whether disseminating a diabetes education intervention in a community based health clinic and offering a medication management and adherence intervention through home visits to seniors, improves the health and well being of racial and ethnic minority program participants; if the approach taken through the implementation of proven PCOR findings such as using community health workers and educators, and pharmacists to deliver the interventions improves the likelihood of patients changing their behaviors to improve their health status; and to determine if participants learned new information and skills that would help them to manage their health conditions and improve their health status. Primary data for the evaluation will come from two waves of in person data collection from patients in a community health center in Chicago, Illinois and patients living in public housing in Houston, Texas. Data will be collected through a baseline survey at beginning of intervention, and a follow up survey at approximately three months postbaseline in the two sites. Data collection for the entire evaluation is expected to last 6 months, from the time the first participant is enrolled until the last 4 month follow up survey is administered. The funding for this request is derived from American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009 with hard and non-negotiable deadlines for expenditures and completion. The end date for completion of all activities funded under this initiative is June 12, 2012. Thus, a rapid approval of OMB is requested, or the benefits of this initiative cannot be evaluated and HHS would not be able to report the benefits and outcome to the Congress as required.

The project represents a private/ public partnership with the goal of consolidating access to longitudinal data on health services financed by both public and private payers to help facilitate CER. Inclusion of data from multiple sources should allow for adequate coverage of priority patient populations, less common medical conditions, health care interventions, and geographic areas. As the title of the project suggests, the MPCD will initially include claims data, since these data are most readily available. Over time, data with additional clinical detail from other sources, such as EHRs, may be incorporated into the database. The contract to develop the MPCD is a 3-year contract between Ingenix Public Sector Solutions (as the primary contractor) and ASPE. We envision several types of respondents, accessing data at different tiers within the MPCD, as shown in the table below. The respondents will not be accessing data on any regular frequency, but rather on an ad hoc basis. The affected public will be individual researchers, health policy analysts and researchers at affiliated with MPCD data contributors as well as key stakeholder staff and analysts within HHS. technology to minimize the information collection burden.
