Proposed Project WISEWOMAN National Program Evaluation—New—National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The CDC has supported the WISEWOMAN program (Well-Integrated Screening and Evaluation for Women Across the Nation) since 1995. The WISEWOMAN program is designed to serve low-income women ages 40–64 who have elevated risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and have no health insurance, or are underinsured for medical and preventive care services. Through the PO 00000 Frm 00040 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 WISEWOMAN program, women have access to screening services for selected CVD risk factors such as elevated blood cholesterol, hypertension, and abnormal blood glucose levels; referrals to lifestyle programs; and referrals to medical care. WISEWOMAN participants must be co-enrolled in the CDC-sponsored National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP). The WISEWOMAN program is administered through cooperative agreements with state, territorial, or tribal health departments. At present, approximately two-thirds of program funding is provided by CDC with the other one-third supplied by the state, territory, or tribal organization. Each WISEWOMAN awardee submits to CDC an annual progress report that describes program objectives and activities, and semi-annual data reports (known as minimum data elements, or MDE) on the screening, assessment, and lifestyle program services offered to women who participate in the program (see WISEWOMAN Reporting System, OMB No. 0920–0612, exp. 12/31/2016). Participant-level MDE are de-identified prior to transmission to CDC. In 2013, CDC released the fourth funding opportunity announcement (FOA) for the WISEWOMAN program (DP13–1302), which resulted in fouryear cooperative agreements with 22 state, territorial, and tribal health departments, including 5 new and 17 continuing awardees from the previous FOA. Key program elements were retained (e.g., provision of screening services, promotion of healthy lifestyle behaviors, and linkage to community resources), but a number of changes were incorporated into the program at that time due to shifts in populations, systems, and community needs. The current FOA reflects increased emphasis on improving access to clinical systems of care and increased emphasis on E:\FR\FM\25AUN1.SGM 25AUN1 50654 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 164 / Monday, August 25, 2014 / Notices leveraging existing resources in the community. Lifestyle interventions have also been reframed to include lifestyle programs (LSPs) and health coaching (HC) sessions, and MDE have been updated to capture information about risk reduction counseling and participants’ readiness to change. The current cooperative agreement also stresses monitoring and performance evaluation as key program dimensions. Additionally, more information is needed to augment that from previous evaluation efforts. CDC seeks to conduct a one-time, multi-component evaluation to assess the effectiveness of the program on programs, administered in the second and fourth program years; a Network Survey of WISEWOMAN awardees and partner organizations, also conducted in the second and fourth program years; and a one-time Site Visit to a subset of awardees across the second to fourth program years. During site visits, semistructured interviews will be conducted with WISEWOMAN staff members who serve in diverse roles and are positioned to provide a variety of perspectives on program implementation. OMB approval is requested for three years. Participation is voluntary and there are no costs to respondents other than their time. individual-, organizational-, and community-level outcomes. The indepth assessment is designed to complement the routine progress and MDE information already being collected from WISEWOMAN program awardees. The new data collection will focus on obtaining qualitative and quantitative information at the organizational and community levels about process and procedures implemented, and barriers, facilitators, and other contextual factors that affect program implementation and participant outcomes.

Proposed Project

WISEWOMAN National Program Evaluation--New--National Center for
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

The CDC has supported the WISEWOMAN program (Well-Integrated
Screening and Evaluation for Women Across the Nation) since 1995. The
WISEWOMAN program is designed to serve low-income women ages 40-64 who
have elevated risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and have no
health insurance, or are underinsured for medical and preventive care
services. Through the WISEWOMAN program, women have access to screening
services for selected CVD risk factors such as elevated blood
cholesterol, hypertension, and abnormal blood glucose levels; referrals
to lifestyle programs; and referrals to medical care. WISEWOMAN
participants must be co-enrolled in the CDC-sponsored National Breast
and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP).
The WISEWOMAN program is administered through cooperative
agreements with state, territorial, or tribal health departments. At
present, approximately two-thirds of program funding is provided by CDC
with the other one-third supplied by the state, territory, or tribal
organization. Each WISEWOMAN awardee submits to CDC an annual progress
report that describes program objectives and activities, and semi-
annual data reports (known as minimum data elements, or MDE) on the
screening, assessment, and lifestyle program services offered to women
who participate in the program (see WISEWOMAN Reporting System, OMB No.
0920-0612, exp. 12/31/2016). Participant-level MDE are de-identified
prior to transmission to CDC.
In 2013, CDC released the fourth funding opportunity announcement
(FOA) for the WISEWOMAN program (DP13-1302), which resulted in four-
year cooperative agreements with 22 state, territorial, and tribal
health departments, including 5 new and 17 continuing awardees from the
previous FOA. Key program elements were retained (e.g., provision of
screening services, promotion of healthy lifestyle behaviors, and
linkage to community resources), but a number of changes were
incorporated into the program at that time due to shifts in
populations, systems, and community needs. The current FOA reflects

leveraging existing resources in the community. Lifestyle interventions
have also been reframed to include lifestyle programs (LSPs) and health
coaching (HC) sessions, and MDE have been updated to capture
information about risk reduction counseling and participants' readiness
to change. The current cooperative agreement also stresses monitoring
and performance evaluation as key program dimensions. Additionally,
more information is needed to augment that from previous evaluation
efforts.
CDC seeks to conduct a one-time, multi-component evaluation to
assess the effectiveness of the program on individual-, organizational-
, and community-level outcomes. The in-depth assessment is designed to
complement the routine progress and MDE information already being
collected from WISEWOMAN program awardees. The new data collection will
focus on obtaining qualitative and quantitative information at the
organizational and community levels about process and procedures
implemented, and barriers, facilitators, and other contextual factors
that affect program implementation and participant outcomes. Data
collection activities will include a Program Survey with all WISEWOMAN
awardee programs, administered in the second and fourth program years;
a Network Survey of WISEWOMAN awardees and partner organizations, also
conducted in the second and fourth program years; and a one-time Site
Visit to a subset of awardees across the second to fourth program
years. During site visits, semi-structured interviews will be conducted
with WISEWOMAN staff members who serve in diverse roles and are
positioned to provide a variety of perspectives on program
implementation.
OMB approval is requested for three years. Participation is
voluntary and there are no costs to respondents other than their time.
