This information
collection is approved for use with the agency's understanding that
1) while the results are generalizable, reduction of the length of
the survey instrument will not permit the results to be
crosstabulated across the 2 surveys (with different respondents) 2)
when reporting the results include a discussion of the effects of
non-response bias, and 3) the purpose of the study is to identify
the range of practices and problems of these centers. No
conclusions can be made about the appropriate level of services for
the C/MHC population until more is known about the effects of
preventive health services on health status and other
outcomes.
