SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title: Enhancing HIV Care of Women,
Infants, Children and Youth Building Capacity through Communities of
Practice, OMB No. 0915-xxxx--New.
Abstract: HRSA aims to increase delivery of evidence-based
interventions that enhance client outcomes, increase the skill level of
the HIV workforce providing care and treatment to Women, Infants,
Children and Youth, and involve partnerships for dissemination of best
practices to Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part D participants.
To that end, HRSA seeks to implement a Communities of Practice (CoP)
platform for RWHAP Part D recipients. A CoP engages recipient teams in
improvement learning sessions using subject matter experts along with
application experts who help recipient teams select, test, and
implement changes on the front line of care. Through organizational
self-assessments, didactic learning on specific care topics, goals
setting, and work plan development, each team can strategically benefit
their organization. CoPs afford participants the opportunity to work in
a group to solve a recognized challenge related to a CoP domain and
support dialogue among participants and the consultant/subject matter
experts. Recipient teams commit to working over a period of 12 months,
alternating between Learning Sessions in which teams come together to
learn about the chosen topic and to plan changes, and Action Periods in
which the teams return to their respective organizations and test those
changes in their clinic settings. The domains for the proposed CoPs are
trauma informed care, pre-conception counseling, and youth
transitioning into adult HIV care services.
A 60-day notice published in the Federal Register on February 27,
2023, vol. 88, No. 38; pp. 12386-12387. The one comment received was
outside the scope of the ICR, and therefore no changes to the
information collection were made as a result of this comment.
Need and Proposed Use of the Information: Process and outcome
evaluations are a critical part of ensuring that CoP initiatives were
implemented as planned and met their intended outcome. Evaluation of
technical assistance (TA) depends on establishing clear goals and plans
from the beginning of the process. This includes specifying the
intended impact of the TA with concrete, measurable objectives. To
judge performance against goals, HRSA will administer TA evaluation
surveys following TA and training, webinars, teleconferences, and
meetings. Findings will drive quality improvement activities and
reports.
The evaluation plan focuses on process and impact evaluation of all
CoP Teams (Pre-Conception Counseling and Sexual Health, Trauma-Informed
Care, and Transitioning Adolescents to Adult Care) over the duration of
the 4-year period of performance. The evaluation plan components will
be operationalized to include TA satisfaction measures (reaction),
change in knowledge after the TA (learning), and change in behavior or
practice after the introduction of evidence-based interventions
(behavior). More specifically, the evaluation plan includes (1) post TA
satisfaction measures, (2) pre-post measures of CoP staff knowledge
about effective practices, (3) retrospective measures to gather
measures of CoP staff knowledge for the first community of practice
only, and (4) measures of TA usefulness and impact on CoP performance.
Likely Respondents: Up to 90 RWHAP Part D Women, Infants, Children
and Youth recipients will participate in the CoPs. Each recipient may
have up to six staff members who may complete the survey.
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 and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search
[[Page 30768]]
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 summarized in the table below.
