CDC acknowledges
that the case study design of the evaluation component limits
generalizability of findings to broader populations. While the
evaluation case study is likely to yield interesting results, it
cannot be used to determine the overall effectiveness of the
"Matter of Balance" program.

CDC requests a 3 year extension to
collect data for the Cost and Follow-up Assessment of Fall
Prevention Programs. CDC seeks to examine the cost of implementing
each of three Administration on Aging-Funded Fall Prevention
Programs for older adults - Stepping On, Moving for Better Balance
and Matter of Balance, and the extent to which preventive behaviors
are maintained. CDC initially assessed these programs in one year,
and requests an extension to continue assessment over 3
years.
