Proposed Project: Evaluation of the Consumer Education Campaign ‘‘Make the Call—Don’t Miss a Beat’’ for the Office on Women’s Health (OWH), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) (New)—OMB No. 0990– NEW. Abstract: The ‘‘Make the Call. Don’t Miss a Beat’’ campaign is a national Public Service Announcement (PSA) campaign that aims to educate, engage and empower women and their families to learn the seven most common symptoms of a heart attack and to call 911 as soon as those symptoms arise. The campaign launched in February, 2011 and includes TV, radio, print and social media PSA. This study will collect information on awareness of the Make the Call—Don’t Miss a Beat campaign, knowledge about heart disease, risk status, and likelihood of calling 911 as the first response to the symptoms of a heart attack. Information will also be collected on demographic variables including age, sex, race, education, income, primary language, and marital status. Information will be collected through the use of a probability sample, Random Digit Dial telephone survey. The respondent base will be surveyed only once, as this is a single-wave survey. The sampling plan is to include a minimum of 1200 women from the United States general population, with at least 600 of these women 50 years or older.

Information collected through the MIS will be used to monitor awardee progress, identify and support CDC technical assistance to awardees, and respond to inquiries from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the White House, Congress and other sources. NCCDPHP has successfully implemented similar MIS-based information collections with other chronic disease prevention and control programs. OMB approval is requested for three years. Awardees will report information to CDC twice per year. The average burden per response is estimated to be three hours. CDC’s collection of this information is authorized by section and sections 311 and 317(k)(2) of the Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S. Code 243 and 247b(k)2.

CDC awarded 68 CTG cooperative agreements to state and local governmental agencies, tribes and territories, state or local non-profit organizations, and national networks of community-based organizations. Fiftyfour awardees were from state, local and tribal government, and 14 awardees were from the private, non-profit sector. Each awardee is charged with implementing a community-or awardeespecific work plan that will lead to specific, measurable health outcomes in its jurisdiction (or service area) among an entire population or a specific population subgroup.
