Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request, 23262 [2013-09097]

Download as PDF 23262 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 75 / Thursday, April 18, 2013 / Notices given in 2014 to individuals with demonstrated training and expertise in the areas of behavioral medicine, internal medicine, nursing, obstetrics/ gynecology and pediatrics. AHRQ will retain and may consider nominations received this year and not selected during this cycle for future vacancies. To obtain a diversity of perspectives, AHRQ particularly encourages nominations of women, members of minority populations, and persons with disabilities. Interested individuals can self nominate. Organizations and individuals may nominate one or more persons qualified for membership on the USPSTF at any time. Individuals nominated prior to May 15, 2012, who continue to have interest in serving on the USPSTF, should be re-nominated. Qualification Requirements: To qualify for the USPSTF and support its mission, an applicant or nominee must, at a minimum, demonstrate knowledge, expertise and national leadership in the following areas: 1. The critical evaluation of research published in peer reviewed literature and in the methods of evidence review; 2. Clinical prevention, health promotion and primary health care; and 3. Implementation of evidence-based recommendations in clinical practice including at the clinician-patient level, practice level, and health system level. Some USPSTF members without primary health care clinical experience may be selected based on their expertise in methodological issues such as metaanalysis, analytic modeling or clinical epidemiology. For individuals with clinical expertise in primary health care, additional qualifications in methodology would enhance their candidacy. Additionally, the Task Force benefits from members with expertise in the following areas: • Public health • Health equity and the reduction of health disparities • Application of science to health policy • Communication of scientific findings to multiple audiences including health care professionals, policy makers and the general public. Candidates with experience and skills in any of these areas should highlight them in their nomination materials. Applicants must have no substantial conflicts of interest, whether financial, professional, or intellectual, that would impair the scientific integrity of the work of the USPSTF and must be willing to complete regular conflict of interest disclosures. Applicants must have the ability to work collaboratively with a team of diverse professionals who support the mission of the USPSTF. Applicants must have adequate time to contribute substantively to the work products of the USPSTF. Dated: April 8, 2013. Carolyn M. Clancy, Director.
