DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS 

AFFAIRS 

Health Services Research and 

Development Service Merit Review 

Board; Notice of Meeting 

The Department of Veterans Affairs 

(VA) gives notice under Public Law 92–

463 (Federal Advisory Committee Act) 

that a meeting of the Health Services 

Research and Development Service 

Merit Review Board will be held August 

19–21, 2008, at the Hyatt Harborside at 

Boston’s Logan International Airport, 

101 Harborside Drive, Boston, 

Massachusetts. Various subcommittees 

of the Board will meet during the review 

period. Each subcommittee meeting of 

the Merit Review Board will be open to 

the public the first day for 

approximately one half-hour from 8 a.m. 

until 8:30 a.m. to cover administrative 

matters and to discuss the general status 

of the program. The remaining portion 

of the meetings will be closed. The 

closed portion of each meeting will 

involve discussion, examination, 

reference to, and oral review of the 

research proposals and critiques. 

The purpose of the Board is to review 

research and development applications 

involving the measurement and 

evaluation of health care services, the 

testing of new methods of health care 

delivery and management, and nursing 

research. Applications are reviewed for 

scientific and technical merit. 

Recommendations regarding funding are 

submitted to the Chief Research and 

Development Officer. 

On August 19, the subcommittee on 

Nursing Research Initiative will 

convene from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. On 

August 20–21, five subcommittees—

Health Services Research A, Health 

Services Research B, Health Services 

Research C, Health Services Research D, 

and Health Services Research E—will 

convene from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. 

After the subcommittees meet there 

will be a debriefing provided to 

members of the Health Services 

Research & Development Scientific 

Merit Review Board. The purposes of 

the debriefing are to discuss the 

outcomes of the review sessions and to 

ensure the integrity and consistency of 

the review process. 

During the closed portion of each 

meeting, discussion and 

recommendations will include 

qualifications of the personnel 

conducting the studies (the disclosure of 

which would constitute a clearly 

unwarranted invasion of personal 

privacy), as well as research information 

(the premature disclosure of which 

would likely compromise significantly 

the implementation of proposed agency 

action regarding such research projects). 

As provided by subsection 10(d) of 

Public Law 92–463, as amended by 

Public Law 94–409, closing portions of 

each meeting is in accordance with 5 

U.S.C. 552b(c)(6) and (9)(B). 

Those who plan to attend the open 

session should contact Ms. Rita Lysik, 

Scientific Merit Review Program 

Manager, at (202) 254–0225, or Health 

Services Research and Development 

Service (124R), Department of Veterans 

Affairs, 810 Vermont Avenue, NW., 

Washington, DC 20420, at least five days 

before the meeting. 

By Direction of the Secretary.
