Notice.
The Bureau of Health
Professions (BHPr) is announcing a
change to its Advanced Education
Nursing Traineeship (AENT) program.
Effective fiscal year (FY) 2014, AENT
support for part-time students (trainees)
will be limited to those students
(trainees) who are enrolled within the
last 12 months of study for their
program. This change will apply to new
part-time students (trainees) and will
not affect part-time students (trainees)
funded prior to FY 2014, who will
continue to be supported throughout
their advanced education primary care
training. Support for full-time students
(trainees) will continue without any
changes. This change is being
implemented to support part-time
students (trainees) nearing graduation,
in an effort to expeditiously meet the
growing demand for primary care nurse
practitioners and nurse midwives.

HRSA will be issuing a noncompetitive program expansion
supplement for the MCH Research
Network on Pregnancy-related Care
program. Approximately $200,000 in
supplemental funding will be made
available in the form of a cooperative
agreement to the American College of
Obstetricians and Gynecologists
(ACOG), Washington, DC, Grant
Number UA6MC19010, during the
budget period of September 9, 2013,
through August 31, 2014.
The MCH Research Network on
Pregnancy-related Care program
(UA6MC 19010), CFDA No. 93.110, is
authorized by Title V, Social Security
Act, Section 501(a)(2); as amended (42
U.S.C. 701).
The MCH Research Network on
Pregnancy-related Care (Network) is the
only existing national network of
practicing obstetrician-gynecologists
who have been recruited to participate
in survey studies to examine physicians’
clinical practice patterns, knowledge
base, opinions, and educational needs
with respect to maternal health,
including pregnancy-related health and
women’s health across the lifespan.
Now in its third year of a 5-year project
period, the Network has successfully
conducted numerous studies and boasts
a very robust dissemination of critical
information on its research findings
including nearly 30 peer-reviewed
publications since 2010. Types of
studies conducted by the Network
include the following:
• Core longitudinal studies that track
physician knowledge and practice over
time (e.g., Preterm birth, Diabetes during
pregnancy, Obesity, Nausea and
vomiting of pregnancy);
• Studies based on newly or soon-tobe published ACOG clinical practice
guidelines (e.g., Thyroid disorders
during pregnancy, Down syndrome);
SUMMARY:

• Studies that assess the maternalchild health workforce (e.g., Racial and
gender differences in residents’
perceptions of mentoring, Physician
gender and practice satisfaction); and
• Topical studies to address the needs
in the field (e.g., Oral health during
pregnancy, Influenza vaccination
during pregnancy).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Intended Recipients of the Award:
The grantee of record (listed below).
Amount of the Non-Competitive
Award: Up to $200,000.
CFDA Number: 93.110.
Current Project Period: 09/01/2010–
08/31/2015.
Period of Supplemental Funding: 9/1/
2013–8/31/2014.
Authority: Title V, Social Security Act,
Section 501(a)(2); as amended (42 U.S.C.
701).
Justification: HRSA is providing
supplemental funding for the Network
award for the purpose of enhancing the
existing Network to maximize its full
potential to conduct multi-site research
on critical issues affecting pregnancyrelated and maternal health across the
lifespan. Currently in year 3 of a 5-year
project period, the Network is funded at
$300,000 total cost per year. A $200,000
program expansion supplement will
increase the capacity of networkaffiliated practitioners and other
affiliates to generate, refine, and
implement original research studies
involving primary data collection and
subject recruitment across a multi-site
research network.
Specifically, this supplemental
funding will catalyze the development
of research and data coordination
capacities for the Network and expand
the Network’s purpose from conducting
provider surveys to coordinating officebased research using the existing
network infrastructure. This program
expansion is a tremendous opportunity
to improve the quality of care and
reduce costs in the emerging area of
outpatient obstetrics research.
Furthermore, an office-based practice
research network will help accelerate
the translation of research to practice.

region. Approximately $1,900,000 will
be available for this effort. HCOP
grantees currently have the expertise,
experience, and infrastructure to
quickly and efficiently implement the
behavioral health supplemental
initiative within their existing
educational programming. The program
expansion supplements will allow the
Bureau of Health Professions to
consolidate resources and meet the
growing need for and access to skilled
and culturally competent behavioral
health professionals within a currently
existing grant program.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Intended Recipients of the Award: 17
FY 2013 HCOP awardees, as follows:
culturally competent to care for a
growing range of health care needs and
to serve populations in hard to reach
places. HRSA’s HCOP grant program
serves as a pipeline program by
encouraging, cultivating, and supporting
students from economically and
academically disadvantaged
backgrounds to enter health care fields.
To date, HCOP has primarily focused on
exposure to careers in medicine,
dentistry, pharmacy, and allied health.
With the growing need for mental health
and substance abuse services
(behavioral health), there is an
opportunity to expand the HCOP focus
to include opportunities in the
behavioral health professions (i.e.,
