Download as PDF 66469 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 214 / Monday, November 5, 2012 / Notices DGMQ staff will search the literature and available data sources to ensure that the information of interest has not already been collected or is in the process of being collected. DGMQ will make all reasonable efforts to ensure that the information collection does not overlap with other data collection on immigrant health, such as those authorized under OMB control numbers 1405–0113, 0920–0006, 1615–0029, and 1615–0033. DGMQ staff proposes that data collection methods for this package will include but are not limited to: Interviews, focus groups, group discussions, and surveys. Depending on the specific purpose, data collection methods may be conducted either inperson, by telephone, on paper, or online. Data may be collected in quantitative and/or qualitative forms. Each proposed information collection will submit the tools used for data collection, including screenshots of web-based surveys, in the statement provided to OMB. DGMQ estimates that 18,720 respondents will be screened in order for 9485 respondents to be involved in information collection activities each year. We anticipate that the information collections undertaken within this generic will use some combination of 15 surveys, 35 focus groups, and 125 interviews, with some information collections making use of more than one method per collection. It is estimated that information collection activities will total 10,598 burden hours per year. ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Type of respondent Foreign-born, migrant, bile populations.

L. 108–357), authorized a demonstration program for the prevention and treatment of sickle cell disease (SCD) to be administered through the Bureau of Primary Health Care and the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) of the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The program is known as the Sickle Cell Disease Treatment Demonstration Program (SCDTDP). The SCDTDP is designed to improve access to services for individuals with sickle cell disease, improve and expand patient and provider education, and improve and expand the continuity and coordination of service delivery for individuals with sickle cell disease and sickle cell trait. In 2006, the MCHB Genetic Services Branch (GSB) awarded funding to a National Coordinating Center (NCC). The NCC was established to: (1) Collect, coordinate, monitor, and report on best practices and findings regarding the activities of the demonstration program; (2) identify a model protocol for eligible entities with respect to the prevention and treatment of Sickle Cell Disease; (3) identify educational materials regarding the prevention and treatment of Sickle Cell Disease; and, (4) prepare a final report on the efficacy of the demonstration program based on evaluation and quality improvement (QI) findings. To achieve the goals/objectives of the NCC, the National Initiative for Children’s Healthcare Quality (NICHQ) and partners are facilitating the Hemoglobinopathy Learning Collaborative (HLC). The HLC includes grantee teams funded from the SCDTDP and the Sickle Cell Disease for Newborn Screening Program (SCDNBSP). The HLC uses a process known as the Model for Improvement, which is a widely used approach to QI in health care settings. The Model for Improvement utilizes a structured process that asks grantee teams, who hereafter will be referred to as improvement teams, to build on small tests of change in their PO 00000 Frm 00039 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 health care setting, while providing monthly reporting on measurements. The proposed QI Data Collection and reporting system is an integral component of this model. Purpose: The purpose of this QI Data Collection strategy is to implement a system to monitor the progress of MCHB-funded activities in improving care and health outcomes for individuals living with sickle cell disease/trait and meeting the goals of the SCDTDP. Each improvement team will be asked to report on a core set of measures related to quality improvement for hemoglobinopathies. Through an evidence-based process, a bank of QI measures has been developed to assess health care utilization of the SCD population as well as several aspects of the system of care. The QI Data Collection strategy will provide an effective and efficient mechanism to do the following: (1) Assess the services provided by grantees under the SCDTDP and monitor and drive improvement on quality measures; (2) collect, coordinate, and distribute data, best practices, and findings from network sites; (3) refine a common model protocol regarding the prevention and treatment of sickle cell disease; (4) examine/address barriers that individuals and families living with sickle cell disease face when accessing quality health care and health education; (5) evaluate the grantees’ performance in meeting the objectives of the SCDTDP; and, (6) provide HRSA/ Congress information on the overall progress of the program. The proposed data collection and entry forms are as follows: (1) Participant Profile Form, (2) Acute Care Visit Form, and (3) Ambulatory Care Visit Form. Respondents: Grantees funded by HRSA under the SCDTDP will be the respondents for this data collection activity. Each month, SCDTDP teams will complete up to three data collection and entry forms for 20 patients with SCD or sickle cell trait who were seen in their network that month. The Participant Profile form will collect demographic and basic health information. The Acute Care Visit and Ambulatory Care Visit forms will assess care in acute and ambulatory care settings, respectively. All information will be collected via medical chart review. Data will be entered directly into a secure web-based data collection tool, Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap). The data entered into REDCap will be analyzed via a custom measurement generator that will calculate and export the QI E:\FR\FM\05NON1.SGM 05NON1
