Information Collection Request: Process Evaluation of “Teenage Pregnancy Prevention: Integrating Services, Programs, and Strategies through Community-Wide Initiatives”

(OMB no. 0920-0952, exp. date 12/31/2015)


Summary


CDC is currently approved to collect information from 9 state and community grantees funded under the cooperative agreement “Teenage Pregnancy Prevention: Integrating Services, Programs, and Strategies through Community-Wide Initiatives.” To clarify questions about reporting requirements, CDC provides technical assistance to awardees when needed. As a result of this experience, CDC proposes minor changes to one form. The changes will improve the form’s usability, improve data quality, and reduce the need for specialized technical assistance.

There are no changes to the number of respondents or the estimated burden per response. CDC plans to begin administering the revised instrument in 2014.  OMB approval is requested, effective immediately.


Information Collection Instruments Affected by Changes


Clinical Partner Needs Assessment

Included as Attachment 4 (electronic v2)


Background and Justification


CDC is approved to collect information needed for a process and intermediate outcome evaluation of awardees funded under the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Initiative. An integral part of the process evaluation requires documenting implementation activities. In order to conduct this process evaluation, annual assessments of performance are conducted among the nine State and Community Awardees and their local partners. The collection of performance measures is critical to understanding the implementation practices associated with evidence-based programs and contraceptive access for each awardee community. Information is collected via questionnaires and a web-based data entry system. Performance measures are collected via questionnaire annually in accordance with the standing approved ICR.


CDC requests OMB approval to modify the current electronic version of the Clinic Partner Needs Assessment to include additional questions that are designed to improve usability and data quality based on feedback from respondents and CDC’s experience in providing technical assistance (TA). Specifically, our TA exchanges identified


  1. Questions that were subject to interpretation. To provide clarification, we’ve added new questions or new response options to existing questions. These changes allow respondents to provide more focused answers with clearer definition of terms and reported performance measures.


  1. Questions that required respondents to calculate an answer. To provide clarification, we modified the form so that respondents report the itemized components used to calculate a summary variable. This reduces ambiguity associated with the calculated variable.


Although both approaches result in additional questions on the form, there is no change in the overall scope of the questions or the estimated burden per response. The proposed changes will improve the clarity of questions and ease of completing the form, thus reducing the need for follow-up and TA.

  1. Modified Q26 Tables 3 and 4 to delete the category “hormonal contraception” and to add the categories “pill”, “patch”, “ring” so that each contraceptive method has its own category and to reduce data issues in calculating percent contraceptive coverage and percent long acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) coverage (i.e., some respondents were including both hormonal contraceptive category and the individual methods in the calculation). Also, modified table to include percent contraceptive coverage and percent LARC coverage because although these are performance measures, each individual clinic filling out the Clinic Partner Needs Assessment was not required to calculate or reflect on these measures in their individual clinic partner assessment.
