SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Information Collection Request Title: Maternal Health Portfolio Evaluation Design OMB No. 0906–0059—Revision. Abstract: HRSA programs provide health care to people who are geographically isolated, economically, or medically vulnerable. HRSA programs help those in need of highquality primary health care, such as SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00038 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 pregnant women and mothers. Improving maternal health outcomes and access to quality maternity care services is a key component of the HRSA mission. HRSA’s Maternal and Child Health Bureau provides funding to address some of the most urgent issues influencing the high rates of maternal mortality. With this emphasis on improving maternal health across the life course and promoting optimal health for all mothers, HRSA is employing a multipronged strategy to address maternal mortality and severe maternal morbidity through the following suite of programs: 1. The State Maternal Health Innovation Program, 2. The Alliance for Innovation on Maternal Health Program, 3. The Alliance for Innovation on Maternal Health—Community Care Initiative, 4. The Rural Maternity and Obstetrics Management Strategies Program, and 5. The Supporting Maternal Health Innovation Program. HRSA’s Maternal and Child Health Bureau is conducting a portfolio-wide evaluation of HRSA-supported maternal health programs with a primary focus on reducing maternal mortality. Through this evaluation, HRSA seeks to identify individual and/or collective strategies, interrelated activities, and common themes within and across the maternal health programs that may be contributing to or driving improvements in key maternal health outcomes. HRSA seeks to ascertain which components should be elevated and replicated to the national level, as well as inform future investments to reduce rates of maternal mortality and severe maternal morbidity. A 60-day notice published in the Federal Register on September 18, 2023, 88 FR 63965–66. There were three public comments received. Two comments were informational and did not require changes and one comment was a request for more information, which was provided. Need and Proposed Use of the Information: HRSA seeks to understand the impact of HRSA’s investments into maternal health programs. These five HRSA maternal health programs represent a total of 12 state-based grantees and three grantees with the potential for national reach. In understanding the strategies that are most effective in reducing maternal morbidity and mortality, HRSA will be able to determine which program elements could be replicated and/or scaled up nationally. Likely Respondents: Likely respondents are recipients of the E:\FR\FM\15DEN1.SGM 15DEN1
