Proposed Project: Facts for Consumers
about Health IT Service Providers
(Revision)—OMB No. 0955–0002–OS/
Office of the National Coordinator for
Health Information Technology
Abstract: ONC is proposing to revise
current OMB approved Facts for
Consumers about Health IT Service
Providers. The current OMB approval is
applicable through September 30, 2012.
It includes iterative rounds of in-depth
consumer testing to assess and analyze
consumer understanding and input
about a model privacy notice for
personal health records (PHRs). ONC
intends to revise the project to use the
same focus group and cognitive
usability interview testing process for
the development of a model notice of
privacy practices (NPP). 45 CFR 164.520
requires covered entities to make
available a NPP for protected health
information to their patients or health
plan members. The notice must, among
other things, outline the purposes for
which the covered entity is permitted to
use and disclose health information, the
rights of individuals with respect to
their health information, the entities’
duties to protect that information, and
the process for filing a complaint
concerning possible violations of the
HIPAA Privacy Rule, such as an
improper use or disclosure of
information. 45 CFR 164.520 requires
that the notice be written in plain
language, but studies have shown that
these notices are often difficult for
patients to understand due to their
length and complexity.
The Federal Health IT Strategic Plan
identifies the Fair Information Practice
Principles (FIPPS) an important
guidepost in the development of privacy
policies and programs. Openness and
Transparency is a key principle of fair
information practices. The NPP is an
important component of fulfilling this
principle. If patients cannot adequately
understand the notice because of its
length or complexity, then the use and
disclosure of their health information is
not open and transparent.
In addition, each participant will have
been recruited through a 15-minute
screening interview. The participants
will be recruited according to U.S.
census statistics for race/ethnicity, age,
marital status, gender, and income.

Notice is hereby given that

investigation conducted by the Joslin
Diabetes Center (Joslin) and additional
analysis conducted by ORI in its
oversight review, ORI found that Dr.

SUMMARY:

Jkt 226001
Shane Mayack, former postdoctoral
fellow, Department of Developmental
and Stem Cell Biology, Joslin, engaged
in research misconduct in research
supported by National Institute of
Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney
Diseases (NIDDK), National Institutes of
Health (NIH), grants T32 DK07260–29
and P30 DK036836 and the 2008 NIH
Director’s New Innovator Award
Program grant DP2 OD004345–01.
ORI found that Respondent engaged
in research misconduct involving two
(2) published papers:
• Mayack, S.R., Shadrach, J.L., Kim,
F.S., & Wagers, A.J. ‘‘Systemic
signals regulate ageing and
rejuventation of blood stem cell
niches.’’ Nature 463:495–500, 2010.
• Mayack, S.R., & Wagers, A.J.
‘‘Osteolineage niche cells initiate
hemotopoietic stem cell
mobilization.’’ Blood 112:519–531,
2008.

As a result of Joslin’s investigation,
both Nature 463:495–500, 2010
(hereafter referred to as the ‘‘Nature
paper’’) and Blood 112:519–531, 2008
(hereafter referred to as the ‘‘Blood
paper’’) have been retracted by the
corresponding author.
Specifically, ORI found that:
• Respondent falsely represented von
Kossa-stained bone nodule images in
two (2) published papers:
a. Figure 2B in the Blood paper was
copied from an unrelated published
experiment in Figure 3, J Orth Surg Res
1:7, 2006, and was used to falsely
represent Respondent’s own experiment
for bone nodules formed in cultured
osteoblastic niche cells.
b. Figure S2c in the Nature paper was
copied from an online image for an
unrelated experiment (at https://
