Proposed Project: Evaluation of 

Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention 

Approaches (PPA) and the Impact 

Evaluation of the Teen Pregnancy 

Prevention Program Grantees: First 

Follow-up Data Collection—OMB No. 

OS–0990—NEW—Office of Adolescent 

Pregnancy Programs. 

Abstract: The Office of Adolescent 

Health (OAH), Office of the Assistant 

Secretary for Health (OASH), U.S. 

Department of Health and Human 

Services (HHS), is overseeing and 

coordinating adolescent pregnancy 

prevention evaluation efforts as part of 

the Teen Pregnancy Prevention 

Initiative. OAH is working 

collaboratively with the Office of the 

Assistant Secretary for Planning and 

Evaluation (ASPE), the Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 

and the Administration for Children and 

Families (ACF) on adolescent pregnancy 

prevention evaluation activities. 

PPA is a random assignment 

evaluation which will expand available 

evidence on effective ways to reduce 

teen pregnancy. The evaluation will 

document and test a range of pregnancy 

prevention approaches in up to eight 

program sites. OAH, ACF, and ASPE are 

proposing first follow-up data collection 

activity as part of the PPA and TPP 

Impact evaluations. Respondents will be 

asked to answer carefully selected 

questions about risk and protective 

factors related to teen pregnancy, 

intermediate outcomes, and behavioral 

outcomes. 

OAH will jointly oversee with ASPE 

the Impact Evaluation of the Teen 

Pregnancy Prevention Program Grantees 

(TPP Impact Evaluation). The TPP 

Impact Evaluation will be a random 

assignment evaluation which will 

determine whether program models 

funded as part of the OAH evidencebased Teen Pregnancy Prevention 

Initiative are effective at preventing teen 

pregnancy, reducing sexually 

transmitted infections, and/or impacting 

sexual risk behaviors. 

The findings from both evaluations 

will be of interest to the general public, 

to policy-makers, and to organizations 

interested in teen pregnancy prevention.

Proposed Project: Outcome Evaluation 

of Teenage Pregnancy Prevention: 

Integrating Services, Programs, and 

Strategies through Community-wide 

Initiatives—OMB No. 0990—NEW— 

Office of Adolescent Pregnancy 

Programs. 

The Office of Adolescent Health and 

the Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC) are working 

collaboratively to address the high 

pregnancy rate of women between the 

ages of 15–19 by demonstrating the 

effectiveness of innovative, multicomponent, community-wide initiatives 

in preventing teen pregnancy and 

reducing rates of teen births in 

communities with the highest rates, 

with a focus on reaching African 

American and Latino youth aged 15–19.

Components of these efforts include (1) 

implementing evidence-based or 

evidence-informed prevention 

programs; (2) linking teens to quality 

health services; (3) educating 

stakeholders (community leaders, 

parents and other constituents) about 

relevant evidence-based or evidenceinformed strategies to reduce teen 

pregnancy and data on needs and 

resources in target communities; and (4) 

supporting the sustainability of the 

community-wide teen pregnancy 

prevention effort. 

The main objective for the proposed 

Outcome Evaluation of Teenage 

Pregnancy Prevention: Integrating 

Services, Programs, and Strategies 

through Community-wide Initiatives is 

to measure risk behaviors, pregnancies, 

and use of contraceptives and family 

planning services among youth. The 

data collection instrument for the 

proposed study is a modified version of 

a recently approved survey (OMB No. 

0970–0360 Expiration date 7/31/2013). 

Clearance is being requested to expand 

the utilization of a modified version of 

the previously-approved instrument. 

The Outcome Evaluation of Teenage 

Pregnancy Prevention: Integrating 

Services, Programs, and Strategies 

through Community-wide Initiatives 

will focus on the combined change of 

two proportions: (1) The proportion of 

youth who have not engaged in sexual 

intercourse during the past 12 months 

and (2) the proportion of youth who 

have engaged in sexual intercourse but 

have used contraception consistently 

during the past 12 months. To 

determine if the change in this 

proportion of interest in the 

intervention community is significantly 

different from the control community is 

one of the most important parameters to 

be estimated. Power analysis 

determined that 1,200 surveys per 

community will be sufficient to detect 

this difference. The precise number of 

youth surveyed will depend on the 

response rates, and will be between 

1,200 and 1,500 per community.

Proposed Project: Safe Harbor for 

Federally Qualified Health Centers 

Arrangements-Extension OMB No. 

0990–0322—Office of Inspector General. 

Abstract: The Office of the Inspector 

General (OIG), Office of the Secretary 

(OS), Department of Health and Human 

Services (HHS) is requesting a 3-year 

extension of clearance for the data 

collection under the anti-kickback 

statute, as described below. In order for 

an arrangement between a health center 

and a donor individual or entity to 

enjoy safe harbor protection, the 

arrangement (1) Must be set out in 

writing (§ 1001.952(w)(1)(i)(A)); (2) the 

written agreement must be signed by the 

parties (§ 1001.952(w)(1)(i)(B)); (3) the 

written agreement must cover, and 

specify the amount of, all good, items, 

services, donations, or loans provided 

by the individual or entity to the health 

center (§ 1001.952(w)(1)(i)(C)); (4) the 

health center must document its basis 

for its reasonable expectation that the 

arrangement will benefit a medically 

underserved population 

(§ 1001.952(w)(3)); and (5) the health 

center, at reasonable intervals, must 

reevaluate the arrangement to ensure 

that it is expected to continue to benefit 

a medically underserved population, 

and must document the re-evaluation 

contemporaneously (§ 1001.952(w)(4)). 

OIG may request to see 

documentation kept pursuant to the safe 

harbor in order to determine compliance 

with the terms of the safe harbor and the 

fraud and abuse laws. Compliance with 

the safe harbor is voluntary, and no 

party is ever required to comply with 

the safe harbor. 

The safe harbor does not entail a 

routine and continuous affirmative 

collection of data form the regulated 

community. However, health centers 

that choose to avail themselves of the 

safe harbor must have initial 

documentation and a re-evaluation of 

the arrangement at least annually. The 

respondents are businesses and/or other 

private sector for-profit and not-forprofit institutions.
