This ICR is approved consistent with HRSA memo of 10-22-07. Namely, HRSA will revise the instructions for further clarity; HRSA will collect information on a wider range of A1c results (and not just on the percentage of patients that meet the very high clinical standard of A1c<7.0%); and HRSA will collect process data (e.g. frequency of A1c testing) alongside outcome data (%A1c). This ICR is approved on the understanding that the results will not be publicly reported by individual grantees but only in the aggregate, across all grantees. Individual grantee performance data will be used to tailor technical assistance based on the grantee's particular needs. HRSA recognizes that health outcomes are determined by many factors, not simply the quality of care provided to patients, which is particularly true for at-risk populations like those served by these grantees. Poor health outcomes are not, in themselves, necessarily an indicator of poor performance. As such, the interpretation and use of these outcome data shall be undertaken with appropriate caution.
