Proposed Project 

The Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention’s Consumer Response 

Services Center (CDC–INFO) 

Evaluation-New-National Center for 

Health Marketing (NCHM), Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

CDC is launching an integrated ‘‘one 

face to the public’’ approach across all 

communication channels to handle 

inquiries concerning a broad spectrum 

of public health topics. The overall 

objective is to ensure consistent, timely, 

reliable health information for 

dissemination to a variety of consumers 

(public, health professionals, 

researchers, etc.) and to address 

variations in inquiry volumes related to 

public health emergencies, news events, 

and dynamic, shifting public health 

priorities. The CDC has integrated over 

40 hotlines into one Consumer 

Response Services Center CDC–INFO. 

CDC–INFO has an exceptionally wide 

scope because content currently divided 

between over 40 hotlines handling 

nearly 2,000,000 telephone contacts 

annually will be consolidated under 

CDC–INFO. All CDC hotlines were 

consolidated in one center beginning in 

February 2005, with all CDC program 

areas transitioning into CDC–INFO 

through a phased approach during the 

next three years. CDC–INFO itself will 

be operational for at least the next seven 

years. The primary objectives of the 

national evaluation are to (1) Proactively 

evaluate customer interactions and 

service effectiveness by employing 

assessment measures and data 

collection mechanisms to support 

performance management, gathering 

insights and understandings for 

improving service levels, and 

implementing effective measures to 

meet customer satisfaction goals; (2) 

develop an ongoing understanding of 

customer requirements and satisfaction 

trends to achieve best of practice quality 

standards and to provide qualitative 

assessments, quantitative data, and cost 

factors to drive improvement and 

reinforce operational objectives; (3) 

measure CDC–INFO contractor service 

performance to assist in determining 

whether performance incentives have 

been achieved; and (4) to collect data in 

order to address public concern and 

response to emergencies, outbreaks, and 

media events. 

Sample size, respondent burden, and 

intrusiveness have been minimized to 

be consistent with national evaluation 

objectives. Procedures will be employed 

to safeguard the privacy and 

confidentiality of participants. Pilot 

tests assisted in controlling burden and 

ensuring the user-relevance of 

questions. The following table shows 

the estimated annualized burden for 

data collection. There are no respondent
