    Justification: In fiscal year 2024, the Office of the Secretary's 
Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Trust Fund, administered by the 
Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation, will 
support a supplement to the HRSA-funded ALDP to create a longitudinal 
dataset for conducting patient-centered maternal and infant health 
research by linking multiple databases. Through this supplement, ALDP 
will develop a dataset on maternal and infant biological, socio-
economic, behavioral risk and protective factors, and health services 
indicators. The ALDP current recipient is uniquely qualified to conduct 
this work because it has:
    <bullet> A long-standing record of successfully completing 
government-funded projects.
    <bullet> Led and managed the BBC since its inception in 1998.

[[Page 73665]]

    <bullet> Deep experience in the complexities of data sharing across 
institutions and the technical aspects of linking data.
    <bullet> Access to and adherence to protections for restricted 
datasets.

Carole Johnson,
Administrator.
