SUMMARY:
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled ‘‘Monitoring
Changes in Attitudes and Practices
among Family Planning Providers and
Clinics’’ to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for review and
approval. CDC previously published a
‘‘Proposed Data Collection Submitted
for Public Comment and
Recommendations’’ notice on June 8,
2018 to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies. CDC
received one substantive and five nonsubstantive comments related to the
previous notice. This notice serves to
allow an additional 30 days for public
and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including, through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and
(e) Assess information collection
costs.

Proposed Project
Monitoring Changes in Attitudes and
Practices among Family Planning
Providers and Clinics (OMB Number
0920–0969, Expiration Date: 05/31/
2014)—Reinstatement with Change—
National Center for Chronic Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion
(NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Division of Reproductive Health
(DRH) at the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) and the HHS
Office of Population Affairs (OPA)
develop and disseminate guidance to
improve the use of contraception and
the delivery of quality family planning
services. The U.S. Medical Eligibility
Criteria for Contraceptive Use (US
MEC), the first national guidance on
family planning containing evidencebased recommendations for the safe use
of contraceptive methods for women
and men with specific characteristics
and medical conditions, was first
published by the CDC in June 2010. The
US Selected Practice Recommendations
for Contraceptive Use (US SPR), which
provides guidance on how to use
contraceptive methods safely and
effectively once they are deemed to be
medically appropriate, was first
published by the CDC in June 2013. The
US MEC and US SPR were updated after
review of the scientific evidence and
consultation with national experts in
family planning; the revised US MEC
and US SPR were published in August
2016.
Providing Quality Family Planning
Services (QFP), which provides
evidence-informed recommendations to
improve client care and service delivery
infrastructure to support the provision
of quality family planning services to
women and men of reproductive age in
the United States, was published by
CDC and OPA in April 2014. The US
MEC, US SPR, and QFP have been
widely disseminated to health care
providers and other constituents via
professional organizations, federal
program grantees, scientific and
programmatic meetings, scientific

manuscripts, online resources, and
other avenues.
To monitor changes in attitudes and
practices regarding provision of
contraception among family planning
providers and clinics, we initiated a
multi-phase assessment. In 2009–2010,
CDC carried out the first phase of the
assessment, collecting information
before the release of the US MEC (OMB
No. 0920–0008). In 2013–2014, CDC, in
collaboration with OPA, carried out the
second phase of the assessment,
collecting information before the release
of the US SPR and QFP (OMB No. 0920–
0969). These information collections
provided useful knowledge about
attitudes and practices of family
planning providers. CDC and OPA used
the findings to develop educational
materials and opportunities for health
care providers.
In 2018, in collaboration with OPA,
CDC plans to request a reinstatement of
OMB No. 0920–0969, ‘Monitoring
Changes in Attitudes and Practices
among Family Planning Providers and
Clinics’ to carry out the third phase of
the assessment. As in the previous
phases, the information collection will
allow CDC and OPA to improve family
planning-related practice by: (1)
Understanding the current use of
contraception guidance in practice,
including awareness and use of the US
MEC, US SPR and QFP; (2) describing
current attitudes and practices among
family planning providers and clinics
related to recommendations included in
the US MEC, US SPR, and QFP and
assessing changes from previous data
collections; and (3) identifying training
needs in use of guidance and family
planning service delivery (e.g., provider
tools, continuing education modules).
As in previous phases of data
collection, CDC plans to administer
surveys to private and public sector
family planning providers and clinic
administrators in the United States. The
design, methodology, and analytic
approach that CDC plans to implement
are based on methods previously
approved for the 2013–2014 survey,
with different instruments being
administered to providers and clinic
administrators. Minor changes to survey
content will be made to eliminate
unnecessary questions, add new
questions of interest, and improve
formatting, usability, and data quality.
The estimated burden per response for
providers is 15 minutes and has not
changed since the previous OMB
approval. The estimated burden per
response for administrators will be
reduced from 40 minutes to 35 minutes.
The total burden for participants is
estimated at 1,916 hours. Participation
is voluntary and there are no costs to
respondents other than their time. OMB
approval is requested for one year.
