Validation Studies and report their 

results to CDC. LRN laboratories 

participate in multiple Challenge 

Panels, Exercises and/or Validation 

Studies every year. These activities 

consist of 5–21,000 simulated samples 

provided by CDC. These challenges are 

necessary to verify the testing capability 

of the LRN laboratories. Because 

biological or chemical agents perceived 

to be of bioterrorism concern can occur 

rarely, some LRN laboratories have 

difficulty maintaining proficiency in 

certain testing methods as a result of 

day-to-day testing. Thus, simulated 

samples are distributed to ensure 

proficiency across LRN member 

laboratories. LRN laboratories also enter 

the results of these simulated samples 

into the LRN Results Messenger or 

through Data Integration for evaluation 

by CDC. 

During a surge event resulting from a 

bioterrorism or chemical terrorism 

attack, or during an emerging infectious 

disease outbreak, LRN Laboratories 

must submit all testing results using 

LRN Results Messenger or through Data 

Integration. CDC uses these results to 

track the progression of a bioterrorism 

event, respond in the most efficient and 

effective way possible, and share this 

data with other federal partners 

involved in the response. Data is 

collected via two primary avenues, the 

program LRN Results Messenger or 

through Electronic Laboratory Reporting 

(ELR), and results include details about 

the type and source of samples as well 

as the tests performed and the 

numerical and empirical results of those 

tests. 

An LRN laboratory must provide its 

testing capabilities, physical and 

shipping addresses, United States 

Department of Agriculture (USDA) and 

Select Agent Permits, and specified 

responsible individuals’ names, phone 

numbers and email addresses. After 

registering with the LRN website, a user 

must provide his/her first and last 

name, work phone number, alternate 

phone number, email address, and 

month and day of birth. During 

reporting of results, sample details, tests 

performed, results obtained, and 

conclusions of tests are required. 

The LRN website has remained 

virtually the same and has only 

undergone routine maintenance since 

2015 to keep it in working order. There 

have been many improvements to the 

LRN website over the course of the past 

three years: (1) The LRN website 

migrated to CDC Secure Access 

Management Services (SAMS) servers to 

provide a more secured login and user 

authentication, (2) A new CDC template 

was implemented to support 508 

compliance and responsive designs, (3) 

LRN user role structures were upgraded 

to provide more efficient administrative 

and user maintenance workflow, and (4) 

The website database and code was 

restructured to prepare the system for 

future modernization efforts. 

CDC also conducted LRN–B Challenge 

Panels (CP) and LRN–C Proficiency 

Testing (PT). The purpose of CP and PT 

is to simulate real samples for labs that 

would not have regularly performed 

some of the LRN procedures. Having the 

ability to conduct LRN CPs and PTs has 

led to improved laboratory performance 

and better preparedness. In FY18 the 

LRN–B CP passing rate was 97%. In 

FY19 and FY20, the passing rate was 

88% and 90%. In FY18 the LRN–C PT 

passing was 96%. In FY19 and FY20, 

the passing rate was 95% and 96%, 

respectively. 

This data collection is authorized 

under the Public Health Service Act, (42 

U.S.C. 241) Section 301.

Proposed Project 

Red Carpet Entry Program 

Implementation Project—New— 

National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, 

STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), 

Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

This information collection involves 

original, implementation research on 

the Red Carpet Entry (RCE) program to 

link persons with HIV to care within 72 

hours of their diagnosis or their return 

to care after being out of care. Originally 

developed and implemented in 

Washington, DC by Whitman Walker 

Health and the D.C. Department of 

Health’s HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis, STD, and 

TB Administration, RCE has been 

shown to successfully and rapidly link 

people who tested HIV positive to an 

HIV care provider. Evaluations of RCE 

found that 70% of newly diagnosed 

people were linked to care within 72 

hours of their HIV test. It was also 

shown to work for linking people who 

had fallen out of care with an HIV 

provider. An adapted version of RCE 

has also been shown to improve health 

outcomes among adolescents and 

youths in Kenya by quickly linking to 

care. The school-based program 

increased rates of linkage to care from 

56.5% to 97.3% and three-month 

retention in care from 66.0% to 90.0%. 

Based on this, the CDC identified RCE 

as an evidence-informed structural 

intervention and included it in CDC’s 

Compendium of Evidence-based 

Interventions (EBIs) and Best Practices 

for HIV Prevention. 

Having an evidence-informed 

intervention like RCE that can be 

disseminated to the broader HIV health 

care community is important for several 

reasons: (1) Antiretroviral therapy (ART) 

is the best way to manage HIV and 

reduce transmission; (2) ART initiation 

is only possible when someone enters 

health care and then is ultimately 

retained in care; and (3) There are few 

existing evidenced-based structural 

interventions to support this process. 

This bias in the field of HIV 

interventions stems from a focus on 

individual behavior change 

interventions to prevent HIV infection. 

However, as new and effective 

treatments have emerged that reduce the 

likelihood of HIV transmission, HIV 

clinics and other healthcare settings 

have emerged as key contexts for HIV 

prevention by making sure that persons 

with HIV (PWH) have immediate access 

to ART. Therefore, the field has slowly 

shifted to understanding how providers 

and health systems can be encouraged 

to support PWH to reduce HIV. 

This study will contribute to the field 

by creating tools to support clinics and 

healthcare settings that want to 

implement the RCE Program to link 

PWH to care. A toolkit will be created 

and tested via implementing RCE in two 

clinics, and lessons from the 

implementation of RCE will be used to 

update the toolkit. The final toolkit will 

be disseminated via CDC’s website. 

Furthermore, because the study also 

evaluates the implementation strategies, 

outcomes, and context when RCE is 

being used, the study will be able to 

recommend what is needed to 

implement RCE with fidelity and 

success and incorporate these insights 

into the toolkit. Finally, because 

tracking costs are also a part of the 

evaluation, clinics and health systems 

that are examining potential RCE 

adoption will have material information 

about what is needed to put RCE into 

practice. An understanding of the actual 

costs can provide important justification 

for program planners. 

The results of this study will help 

CDC frame how best to disseminate the 

RCE Program to the broader HIV health 

care community. This is important 

because only federal agencies like CDC 

have the resources and infrastructure to 

broadly disseminate EBIs. Broad 

dissemination and uptake of EBIs like 

RCE can help move population rates of 

HIV suppression which would affect 

population transmission rates. Linkage 

to care, in an era of biomedical HIV 

prevention, is a prevention linchpin. 

CDC requests OMB approval for an 

estimated 125 burden hours. There are 

no costs to respondents other than their 

time to participate.
