Proposed Project Evaluation of U.S. Family Planning Guidelines—New—National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Division of Reproductive Health (DRH), in collaboration with the Office of Population Affairs (OPA), plans to conduct an evaluation of the diffusion, utilization of, and impact on providerand clinic-level attitudes and practices of three national guidance documents. These guidelines, which are intended to improve contraceptive use and the delivery of quality family planning services in the United States, are: (1) The U.S. Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use (U.S. MEC); (2) the forthcoming U.S. Selected Practice Recommendations for Contraceptive Use (U.S. SPR); and (3) the forthcoming Guidelines for Providing Quality Family Planning Services (QFPS). The guidance documents have or will be widely disseminated to health-care providers and other constituents, via professional organizations, federal program grantees, scientific and programmatic meetings, scientific manuscripts, online resources, and other avenues, as deemed appropriate. The purpose of this information collection is to evaluate the adoption and implementation of recommendations included in the U.S. MEC, approximately two years after its release, and to collect baseline information on selected attitudes and practices that will be addressed in the forthcoming U.S. SPR and QFPS. The information to be collected will also allow CDC and OPA to improve family planning-related public health practice, as CDC and OPA will tailor future dissemination activities, and develop needed provider tools, based upon the PO 00000 Frm 00035 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 21101 results. CDC will consider conducting a follow-up information collection approximately three years after the baseline survey. For the baseline information collection, CDC plans to administer a mailed survey to a sample of 13,125 private- and public-sector family planning providers and clinic administrators in the United States. Private-sector providers will be randomly selected from sampling frames with individual-level information on providers. To reach public-sector providers and clinic administrators, publicly funded clinics will be randomly selected; one provider and the clinic administrator will be asked to complete surveys at sampled clinics. Specifically, surveys will be completed by: (a) 3,125 private-sector office-based physicians (i.e., those specializing in obstetrics/gynecology, family medicine, and adolescent medicine), sampled from the American Medical Association Physician Masterfile; (b) 2,000 private-sector midlevel providers (i.e., nurse practitioners in women’s health and certified nurse midwives), sampled from the Nurse Practitioners in Women’s Health (NPWH) and the American College of Nurse Midwives (ACNM) membership lists; (c) 2,000 providers from Title X clinics, sampled from the Guttmacher Institute database of publicly funded family planning clinics; (d) 2,000 providers from non-Title X clinics, sampled from the Guttmacher Institute database of publicly funded family planning clinics; (e) 2,000 clinic administrators from Title X clinics, sampled from the Guttmacher Institute database of publicly funded family planning clinics; and (f) 2,000 clinic administrators from non-Title X clinics, sampled from the Guttmacher Institute database of publicly funded family planning clinics. Each sampled provider and clinic will receive a mailed survey package. For private-sector family planning providers, each mailed survey package will include a single survey to be completed by the provider. For publicsector clinics, each mailed survey package will include two surveys—one to be completed by a randomly selected family planning provider at the clinic, and the second to be completed by the clinic administrator. Each mailed survey will be accompanied by a postage-paid return envelope. Individuals will also be given the option to complete the survey online via a password protected webbased data collection system. Participation in the survey will be completely voluntary.

CB is able to approve up to ten child welfare waiver demonstration projects in each of Fiscal Years 2012, 2013 and 2014. These waiver demonstration projects involve the waiver of certain requirements of title IV–E and IV–B. These projects do not provide additional funding to carry out new services; rather they allow more flexible uses of Federal funds in order to test new approaches to service delivery or financing structures in an effort to improve outcomes for children and families involved in the child welfare system. We encourage title IV–E agencies wishing to apply for approval of a waiver demonstration project to submit a letter of intent followed by a full proposal at a later date. For title IV–E agencies that choose to submit a letter of intent, the letter of intent should indicate the title IV–E agency’s intent to submit a proposal, and briefly describe the demonstration project, including the nature of the intervention the agency wishes to implement, the target population the agency wishes to serve, the reasons for selecting the proposed project and the evaluation design that the agency is considering. The full proposal must describe the project in extensive detail including the goals identified in statute that the project is intended to accomplish, the geographic areas in which the proposed project will be conducted, the service interventions to be implemented, the impact intervention is expected to have on outcomes related to safety, permanency, well-being, how service provision will change for children and families under the waiver demonstration, a statement of program requirements for waivers needed to conduct the project, an estimate of the projected costs or savings of the proposed project, a description of the proposed evaluation design and an accounting of any other sources of funding that have been used to provide the services that the agency now proposes to address under a waiver demonstration.

Proposed Project

    Evaluation of U.S. Family Planning Guidelines--New--National Center 
for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Division of 
Reproductive Health (DRH), in collaboration with the Office of 
Population Affairs (OPA), plans to conduct an evaluation of the 
diffusion, utilization of, and impact on provider- and clinic-level 
attitudes and practices of three national guidance documents. These 
guidelines, which are intended to improve contraceptive use and the 
delivery of quality family planning services in the United States, are: 
(1) The U.S. Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use (U.S. 
MEC); (2) the forthcoming U.S. Selected Practice Recommendations for 
Contraceptive Use (U.S. SPR); and (3) the forthcoming Guidelines for 
Providing Quality Family Planning Services (QFPS). The guidance 
documents have or will be widely disseminated to health-care providers 
and other constituents, via professional organizations, federal program 
grantees, scientific and programmatic meetings, scientific manuscripts, 
online resources, and other avenues, as deemed appropriate. The purpose 
of this information collection is to evaluate the adoption and 
implementation of recommendations included in the U.S. MEC, 
approximately two years after its release, and to collect baseline 
information on selected attitudes and practices that will be addressed 
in the forthcoming U.S. SPR and QFPS. The information to be collected 
will also allow CDC and OPA to improve family planning-related public 
health practice, as CDC and OPA will tailor future dissemination 
activities, and develop needed provider tools, based upon the results. 
CDC will consider conducting a follow-up information collection 
approximately three years after the baseline survey.
    For the baseline information collection, CDC plans to administer a 
mailed survey to a sample of 13,125 private- and public-sector family 
planning providers and clinic administrators in the United States. 
Private-sector providers will be randomly selected from sampling frames 
with individual-level information on providers. To reach public-sector 
providers and clinic administrators, publicly funded clinics will be 
randomly selected; one provider and the clinic administrator will be 
asked to complete surveys at sampled clinics. Specifically, surveys 
will be completed by: (a) 3,125 private-sector office-based physicians 
(i.e., those specializing in obstetrics/gynecology, family medicine, 
and adolescent medicine), sampled from the American Medical Association 
Physician Masterfile; (b) 2,000 private-sector mid-level providers 
(i.e., nurse practitioners in women's health and certified nurse 
midwives), sampled from the Nurse Practitioners in Women's Health 
(NPWH) and the American College of Nurse Midwives (ACNM) membership 
lists; (c) 2,000 providers from Title X clinics, sampled from the 
Guttmacher Institute database of publicly funded family planning 
clinics; (d) 2,000 providers from non-Title X clinics, sampled from the 
Guttmacher Institute database of publicly funded family planning 
clinics; (e) 2,000 clinic administrators from Title X clinics, sampled 
from the Guttmacher Institute database of publicly funded family 
planning clinics; and (f) 2,000 clinic administrators from non-Title X 
clinics, sampled from the Guttmacher Institute database of publicly 
funded family planning clinics.
    Each sampled provider and clinic will receive a mailed survey 
package. For private-sector family planning providers, each mailed 
survey package will include a single survey to be completed by the 
provider. For public-sector clinics, each mailed survey package will 
include two surveys--one to be completed by a randomly selected family 
planning provider at the clinic, and the second to be completed by the 
clinic administrator. Each mailed survey will be accompanied by a 
postage-paid return envelope. Individuals will also be given the option 
to complete the survey online via a password protected web-based data 
collection system. Participation in the survey will be completely 
voluntary. OMB approval is requested for one year.
