Screening Telephone Call to Identify the Appropriate

Survey Respondent



For each facility to be surveyed, a screening telephone call will be made to (1) confirm that the facility is eligible for inclusion in the study and (2) obtain the name and address of the individual who is most knowledgeable about the use of the endoscopic equipment. The questions to be asked during the screening call will vary by practice setting. The screening survey will be administered as a computer-assisted telephone interview. As a result, data entry will be performed as part of the interview process and the skip-logic will be electronic.


The following burden statement will be available to be read to the person responding to the call if they ask for this information.


Public reporting burden of this collection of information is estimated to average 5 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden to CDC/ATSDR Reports Clearance Officer, 1600 Clifton Road, MS D-74, Atlanta, GA 30333, ATTN: PRA (0920-0539).



Questions 1-4 will be asked of the individual who answers the phone at the practice site.
