Proposed Project
National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program
(NBCCEDP) Case Management Survey--New--National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
[[Page 11982]]
Background and brief description of the proposed project: The
impact of case management policy on the National Breast and Cervical
Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) operations and clients is not
well understood to date. Evaluation results thus far have produced a
general, qualitative understanding of how case management has been
implemented by grantees. Questions remain, however, regarding: (1) The
number of grantees who have implemented different types of financial
and service delivery models of case management; (2) costs associated
with different approaches to case management; and (3) whether or not
case management activities have a positive impact on clients. This
evaluation project will focus on the first and second questions.
The purpose of the case management assessment will be to gather
some quantitative and descriptive information about how the case
management component has been implemented by all NBCCEDP grantees.
Results of the evaluation should assist CDC in developing case
management training, providing technical assistance, and assessing the
costs of case management. A standardized written survey will be used to
collect descriptive information from all NBCCEDP grantees on components
of case management program activities including: organizational
structure, financial and service delivery models, staffing, and needs
for training or technical assistance. A total of 68 Breast and Cervical
Cancer Program Directors will be asked to complete the survey, with
assistance from program Case Management Coordinators as needed. The
survey is expected to take an average of 1.5 hours to complete. The
only cost to respondents is their time. This is a one-time data
collection effort. The total annualized burden for respondents is 102
hours.
