Proposed Project

    CDC Web site Usability Evaluation--New--National Center for Health 
Marketing (NCHM), Coordinating Center for Health Information and 
Services (CoCHIS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Executive Order 12862 directs agencies that provide significant 
services directly to the public to survey customers to determine the 
kind and quality of services they need and their level of satisfaction 
with existing services. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC), National Center for Health Marking (NCHM), seeks to obtain 
approval to conduct usability tests of the CDC Web site, http://www.cdc.gov, on an ongoing basis. By collecting Web site usability 
information, CDC will be better able to serve, and respond to, the 
ever-changing demands of Web site users. These users include 
individuals (such as patients, educators, students, etc.), interested 
communities, partners, healthcare providers, and businesses. Survey 
information will augment current Web content, delivery, and design 
research which is used to understand the Web user, and more 
specifically, the CDC user community. Primary objectives are to (1) 
ensure CDC's Web site meets its customer needs and (2) ensure the Web 
site meets the wants, preferences, and needs of its target audiences. 
Findings will help to: (1) Understand the user community and how to 
better serve Internet users; (2) discover areas requiring improvement 
in either content or delivery; (3) determine how to align Web offerings 
with identified user need(s); and (4) explore methods for offering, 
presenting and delivering information most effectively. There are no 
costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated 
annualized burden hours are 41,041.
