‘‘Evaluating the Knowledge and
Educational Needs of Students of Health
Professions on Patient-Centered
Outcomes Research.’’ In accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44
U.S.C. 3501–3521, AHRQ invites the
public to comment on this proposed
information collection.
This proposed information collection
was previously published in the Federal

allowed 60 days for public comment. No
substantive comments were received.
The purpose of this notice is to allow an
additional 30 days for public comment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Proposed Project
Evaluating the Knowledge and
Educational Needs of Students of Health
Professions on Patient-Centered
Outcomes Research AHRQ’s Effective
Health Care Program, which was
authorized by Section 1013 of the
Medicare Prescription Drug,
Improvement and Modernization Act of
2003, 42 U.S.C. 299b-7, is the Federal
Government’s first program to conduct
patient-centered outcomes research
(PCOR) and share the findings with the
public. PCOR is research that assesses
the benefits and harms of preventive,
diagnostic, therapeutic, palliative or
health delivery system interventions.
This research helps clinicians, patients
and other caregivers make decisions
about health care choices by
highlighting comparisons and outcomes
that matter to people, such as survival,
function, symptoms, and health related
quality of life. The Program funds
individual researchers, research centers,
and academic organizations to work
together with the Agency to produce
effectiveness and comparative
effectiveness research.
The Effective Health Care Program
also translates research findings into a
variety of products for diverse

VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 229001

stakeholders. These products include
summary guides for clinicians, patients/
consumers, and policy-makers,
continuing education modules and
faculty slide sets for clinicians, patient
decision aids, and audio and video
podcasts.
Most of the PCOR materials and
translation products that are currently
available are designed to help practicing
clinicians, consumers/patients, and
policymakers in making important
decisions about health care. AHRQ
recognizes the importance of insuring
that clinicians in training are also
exposed to PCOR and that they fully
understand their role and value in
shared clinical decision making. AHRQ
and the Effective Health Care Program
have started developing some tools,
such as faculty slide sets based on
comparative effectiveness reviews of the
literature, to reach this audience
through traditional clinical curricula.
However, exposure to PCOR may occur
and even be more effective in more nontraditional extracurricular settings, such
as special interest projects created and
sponsored by student groups or even
Web-based events involving social
media.
This evaluation study addresses
AHRQ’s need for a report to inform
strategic planning for dissemination and
educational activities targeted to
clinicians in training. The evaluation is
intended to assess students’ and
faculties’ needs and preferences for
integrating PCOR into the health
professions’ curricula, learning
environment, and other training
opportunities through a series of
structured interviews with selected
faculty members and an online survey
directed at students in the health
professions. The outcome will be a
roadmap, which will include a set of
recommendations for strategies and
tools for educational and dissemination
activities, along with a suggested
approach and timeline for
implementation of the
recommendations. The
recommendations will inform AHRQ’s
strategic plan for future efforts which
will engage and develop information
and materials for the health professions
student audience.
The goals of this project are to:
(1) Understand the extent to which
PCOR is currently integrated into the
curriculum and how it is disseminated
to students in the health professions.
(2) Understand health professions
students’ attitudes toward and
knowledge of PCOR.
(3) Explore differences in health
professions student experiences with
PCOR by health profession.

(4) Identify informational and training
needs and preferences of health
professions students in primary careoriented training programs.
This study is being conducted by
AHRQ through its contractor, James Bell
Associates, pursuant to (1) 42 U.S.C.
299b–7, (2) AHRQ’s authority to
conduct and support research on
healthcare and on systems for the
delivery of such care, including
activities with respect to the quality,
effectiveness, efficiency,
appropriateness and value of healthcare
services, 42 U.S.C. 299a(a)(1), and (3)
AHRQ’s authority to support the
synthesis and dissemination of available
scientific evidence for use by patients,
consumers, practitioners, providers,
purchasers, policy makers, and
educators, 42 U.S.C. 299(b)(2).
Method of Collection
To achieve these goals the following
data collections will be implemented:
(1) Student Survey. The purpose of
the survey is to assess health
professions students’ attitudes toward
and knowledge of PCOR, the extent to
which they value PCOR, what they
would like to know, and how they
would prefer to receive this information
now and as they move into clinical
practice.
(2) Faculty Interview. The faculty
interview will focus on gaining an
understanding of where PCOR fits into
the current curriculum for each health
professions field; how both the
philosophy and substantive findings of
PCOR information are disseminated to
instructors and subsequently to
students; and perceived gaps and
suggested strategies for filling these
gaps.
Data will be gathered through
structured interviews of faculty in
health professions programs and a broad
web-based survey of a cross-section of
health professions students. The
outcome from the project will be used
immediately and directly by AHRQ’s
Office of Communications and
Knowledge Transfer (OCKT) staff to
guide strategic planning for addressing
the educational needs of health
professions students. Subsequent
activities may include, but are not
limited to, modifying specific
information about PCOR and developing
novel approaches to providing
information on PCOR as determined by
the student survey responses. This
information will also help guide the
determination of the AHRQ OCKT
resource needs.
