SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Information Collection Request Title: 

Maternal Health Portfolio Evaluation 

Design OMB No. 0906–0059—Revision. 

Abstract: HRSA programs provide 

health care to people who are 

geographically isolated, economically, 

or medically vulnerable. HRSA 

programs help those in need of highquality primary health care, such as 

pregnant women and mothers. 

Improving maternal health outcomes 

and access to quality maternity care 

services is a key component of the 

HRSA mission. HRSA’s Maternal and 

Child Health Bureau provides funding 

to address some of the most urgent 

issues influencing the high rates of 

maternal mortality. With this emphasis 

on improving maternal health across the 

life course and promoting optimal 

health for all mothers, HRSA is 

employing a multipronged strategy to 

address maternal mortality and severe 

maternal morbidity through the 

following suite of programs: 

1. The State Maternal Health 

Innovation Program, 

2. The Alliance for Innovation on 

Maternal Health Program, 

3. The Alliance for Innovation on 

Maternal Health—Community Care 

Initiative, 

4. The Rural Maternity and Obstetrics 

Management Strategies Program, and 

5. The Supporting Maternal Health 

Innovation Program. 

HRSA’s Maternal and Child Health 

Bureau is conducting a portfolio-wide 

evaluation of HRSA-supported maternal 

health programs with a primary focus 

on reducing maternal mortality. 

Through this evaluation, HRSA seeks to 

identify individual and/or collective 

strategies, interrelated activities, and 

common themes within and across the 

maternal health programs that may be 

contributing to or driving improvements 

in key maternal health outcomes. HRSA 

seeks to ascertain which components 

should be elevated and replicated to the 

national level, as well as inform future 

investments to reduce rates of maternal 

mortality and severe maternal 

morbidity. 

A 60-day notice published in the 

Federal Register on September 18, 2023, 

88 FR 63965–66. There were three 

public comments received. Two 

comments were informational and did 

not require changes and one comment 

was a request for more information, 

which was provided. 

Need and Proposed Use of the 

Information: HRSA seeks to understand 

the impact of HRSA’s investments into 

maternal health programs. These five 

HRSA maternal health programs 

represent a total of 12 state-based 

grantees and three grantees with the 

potential for national reach. In 

understanding the strategies that are 

most effective in reducing maternal 

morbidity and mortality, HRSA will be 

able to determine which program 

elements could be replicated and/or 

scaled up nationally.
