SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Agenda:
On November 15, 2018, the Committee
will discuss and make
recommendations on the topic
‘‘Connected and Empowered Patients: EPlatforms Potentially Expanding the
Definition of Scientific Evidence.’’ The
recommendations will address how
FDA can leverage patient-driven
platforms, such as social media and
registries, to better engage patients and
consumers as empowered partners in
the work of protecting public health and
promoting responsible innovation.
Social media and other web platform
enablers are facilitating the growth of
virtual patient communities.
Increasingly, patients and health care
consumers are using these platforms to
share their health experiences and seek
information from other patients and
consumers, rather than their health care
providers alone. Novel approaches and
methodologies are being used to tap into
some of these platforms as potentially
rich sources of patient-generated health
data, which could be used as relevant
and reliable real-world evidence
(https://www.fda.gov/ucm/groups/
fdagov-public/@fdagov-meddev-gen/
documents/document/ucm513027.pdf).
This meeting will help advance FDA’s
objective to assure the needs,
experiences, and perspectives of

patients are included as part of FDA’s
deliberations involving the regulation of
medical devices and their use by
patients. For this meeting, FDA is
seeking input from the Committee and
the public on whether and how FDA
can harness the emerging potential of
these patient platforms to better engage
patients and consumers as empowered
partners in the work of protecting public
health and promoting responsible
innovation. In addition, FDA is seeking
recommendations from the Committee
on ways to leverage these platforms to
disseminate as well as potentially
collect and evaluate health information
to and from patients and consumers.
FDA intends to make background
material available to the public no later
than 2 business days before the meeting.
If FDA is unable to post the background
material on its website prior to the
meeting, the background material will
be made publicly available at the
location of the advisory committee
meeting, and the background material
will be posted on FDA’s website after
the meeting. Background material is
available at https://www.fda.gov/
AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/
default.htm. Scroll down to the
appropriate advisory committee-meeting
link.
Procedure: Interested persons may
present data, information, or views,
orally or in writing, on issues pending
before the Committee. Oral
presentations from the public will be
scheduled between approximately 11:15
a.m. to 12:15 p.m. on November 15,
2018. Those individuals interested in
making formal oral presentations should
notify the contact person and submit a
brief statement of the general nature of
the evidence or arguments they wish to
present, the names and addresses of
proposed participants, and an
indication of the approximate time
requested to make their presentation on
or before October 15, 2018. Time
allotted for each presentation may be
limited. If the number of registrants
requesting to speak is greater than can
be reasonably accommodated during the
scheduled open public hearing session,
FDA may conduct a lottery to determine
the speakers for the scheduled open
public hearing session. The contact
person will notify interested persons
regarding their request to speak by
October 17, 2018. Individuals who do
not wish to speak at the open public
hearing session but would like their
comments to be heard by the Committee
may send written submissions to the
contact person on or before October 23,
2018.

OMB No. 0915–0278—Extension
Abstract: Clinicians participating in
the HRSA National Health Service
Corps (NHSC) Scholarship Program and
the Students to Service (S2S) Loan
Repayment Program use the online
Travel Request Worksheet to receive
travel funds from the Federal
Government to visit eligible NHSC sites
to which they may be assigned in
accordance with the Public Health
Service Act (PHSA), section 331(c)(1).
The travel approval process is
initiated when a NHSC scholar or S2S
participant notifies the NHSC of an
impending interview at one or more
NHSC-approved practice sites. The
Travel Request Worksheet is also used
to initiate the relocation process after a
NHSC scholar or S2S participant has
successfully been matched to an
approved practice site in accordance
with the PHSA, section 331(c)(3). Upon
receipt of the Travel Request Worksheet,
the NHSC will review and approve or
disapprove the request and promptly
notify the scholar or S2S participant,
and the NHSC logistics contractor
regarding travel arrangements and
authorization of the funding for the site
visit or relocation.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: This information will
facilitate NHSC scholar and S2S
clinicians’ receipt of federal travel funds
that are used to visit high-need NHSC
sites. The Travel Request Worksheet is
also used to initiate the relocation
process after a NHSC scholar or S2S
participant has successfully been
matched to an approved practice site.
Likely Respondents: Clinicians
participating in the NHSC Scholarship
Program and S2S Loan Repayment
Program.
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 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
