As such, the recommendations underwent peer review as required by Part II Section D of the HHS Information Quality Guidelines (https://aspe.hhs.gov/hhsguidelines-ensuring-maximizingdisseminated-information). HHS developed these guidelines in accordance with the OMB issued Guidelines for Ensuring and Maximizing the Quality, Objectivity, Utility, and Integrity of lnformation Disseminated by Federal Agencies, 67 FR 8452 (Feb. 22, 2002) and the Information Quality Act Public Law 106–554, 515(a) (2000). CDC elected to use specialists in the field who were not involved in the development of the recommendations. CDC solicited nominations for reviewers from the American Academy of Family Physicians, American Academy of Pediatrics, American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, and the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology & Nutrition. Six clinicians with expertise in hepatology, gastroenterology, internal medicine, infectious diseases, and/or pediatrics provided structured peer reviews. Specifically, CDC asked reviewers to focus their reviews on the following criteria: • Methodology (studies included in the evidence review, methods used to assess the evidence, clarity of evidence findings, identification of limitations or uncertainties) • Recommendations (reviewer agreement with CDC’s conclusions, suggestions for clarifying recommendations) • Potential impact and implementation (whether implementing recommendations would improve health outcomes, any resources or tools that would facilitate implementation) • Other comments for CDC consideration A list of peer reviewers and CDC’s responses to peer review comments are available at CDC’s Viral Hepatitis Influential Scientific Information web page at https://www.cdc.gov/hepatitis/ policy/isireview/index.htm. In addition, on November 22, 2022, CDC published a notice in the Federal Register (87 FR 71330) to obtain public E:\FR\FM\01DEN1.SGM 01DEN1
