Information Collection Request Title:
‘‘Communications Testing for
Comprehensive Communication
Campaign for HITECH ACT.
OMB No.: 0955–0005.
Abstract: The Office of the National
Coordinator for Health Information
Technology (ONC) serves as the Health
and Human Services (HHS) Secretary’s
principal advisor on the development,
application, and use of health
information technology (health IT). ONC
is requesting an approval by OMB on an
extension, to a previously approved
generic clearance titled
Communications Testing for
Comprehensive Communication
Campaign for HITECH ACT, 0955–0005,
for collecting information through a
variety of research methods for the
purpose of developing and testing
communications involving health
information technology and health
information privacy. ONC
responsibilities include promoting the
development of a nationwide health IT
infrastructure that allows for electronic
use and exchange of information and
fostering the public understanding of
health information technology,
including educating the public about
health information privacy. In order to
fulfill these responsibilities, information
from the public at large is necessary to
determine what education is needed
and what types of communication
techniques will be most effective. Due to
the rapidly evolving nature of health
information technology, an extension of
the original generic data collection is
being requested to ensure that these
education and communication efforts
keep pace with technological
advancements and the changing health
information technology ecosystem.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: This information will be
used to assess the need for
communications on specific topics and
to assist in the development and
modification of communication
messages. The data will help in tailoring
print, broadcast, and electronic media
communications and other materials for
them to have powerful and desired
impacts on target audiences. The data
will not be used for the purposes of
making policy or regulatory decisions.
Likely Respondents: Likely
respondents include consumers as well
as physicians, nurses and other health
care providers.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions, to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information, to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information, to search
data sources, to complete and review
the collection of information, and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.

Information Collection Request Title:
Education and Training of Healthcare
Providers as a Coordinated Public
Health Response to Violence Against
Women.
Abstract: The Office on Women’s
Health (OWH) is seeking a new
clearance to a conduct a one year data
collection associated with the pilot and
evaluation of an eLearning course
developed as part of the ‘‘Education and
Training of Healthcare Providers as a
Coordinated Public Health Response to
Violence Against Women Project’’. The
purpose of this data collection is to
gather data from healthcare providers
who have volunteered to participate in
the pilot and evaluation of an e-learning
course designed to educate and train
healthcare providers on how to respond
to intimate partner violence (IPV)
against women. Information obtained
from this data collection will be used to
identify areas of improvement and
measure the effectiveness of the elearning course in educating healthcare
providers about IPV, addressing
attitudinal barriers to IPV screening, and
increasing IPV screening in clinical
practice. This data will also help
identify any problems in the navigation
and functioning of the e-learning course.
The results of this evaluation will assist
OWH in making revisions to the course
and subsequently coordinating a
national launch, making the e-learning
course available to healthcare providers
across the U.S. All data collection forms
and activities will be used within a year
time frame.

Information: The piloting and

evaluation of this eLearning course
supports the DHHS and OWH’s overall
mission and strategic plan. It supports
the DHHS objective of implementing
‘‘prevention policies, programming, and
interventions to prevent and respond to
individuals, families, and communities
impacted by domestic violence’’. It also
enhances OWH’s capacity to provide
healthcare providers with accurate,
evidence-based information and identify
innovative educational strategies.
Furthermore, the results will also aid in
the planning and development of future
OWH and other public and private
sector initiatives to promote IPV
awareness and screening in the
healthcare setting. Knowledge gained
from the evaluation will inform federal,
public, and private sector on how IPV
knowledge, attitude, and practices may
differ between healthcare providers and
healthcare settings.
Likely Respondents: The respondents
for this pilot and evaluation are
healthcare providers (physicians,
nurses, and social workers) who are
members of professional associations
and who provide services in Nevada,
Oklahoma, and South Carolina.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions, to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information, to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information, to search
data sources, to complete and review
the collection of information, and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.
