    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) gives notice under the

Services Research and Development Service Scientific Merit Review Board 
will conduct in-person and teleconference meetings of its seven Health 
Services Research (HSR) subcommittees on the dates below from 8:00 a.m. 
to approximately 5:00 p.m. (unless otherwise listed) at the Hilton 
Crystal City, 2399 Jefferson Davis Highway, Crystal City, VA, 22202 
(unless otherwise listed):
     HSR 1--Health Care and Clinical Management on March 7-8, 
2017;
     HSR 2--Behavioral, Social, and Cultural Determinants of 
Health and Care on March 7-8, 2017;
     HSR 3--Healthcare Informatics on March 7-8, 2017;
     HSR 4--Mental and Behavioral Health on March 7-8, 2017;
     HSR 5--Health Care System Organization and Delivery on

     HSR 6--Post-acute and Long-term Care on March 9, 2017;
     HSR 8--Randomized Program Evaluations on March 8, 2017;

and
     NRI--Nursing Research Initiative from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 
p.m. on March 10, 2017.
    The purpose of the Board is to review health services 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, mission relevance, and the 
protection of human and animal subjects. Recommendations regarding 
funding are submitted to the Chief Research and Development Officer.
    Each subcommittee meeting of the Board will be open to the public 
the first day for approximately one half-hour at the start of the 
meeting on March 7-8 (HSR 1, 2, 3, 4), March 8 (HSR 8), March 8-9 (HSR 
5), March 9 (HSR 6), March 9-10 (CDA), and March 10 (NRI) to cover 
administrative matters and to discuss the general status of the 
program. Members of the public who wish to attend the open portion of 
the subcommittee meetings may dial 1 (800) 767-1750, participant code 
10443#.
    The remaining portion of each subcommittee meeting will be closed 
for the discussion, examination, reference to, and oral review of the 
intramural research proposals and critiques. During the closed portion 
of each subcommittee 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 the meeting is in accordance with 
5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(6) and (9)(B).
    No oral or written comments will be accepted from the public for 
either portion of the meetings. Those who plan to participate during 
the open portion of a subcommittee meeting should contact Ms. Liza 
Catucci, Administrative Officer, Department of Veterans Affairs, Health 
Services Research and Development Service (10P9H), 810 Vermont Avenue 
NW., Washington, DC, 20420, or by email at [email protected]. For 
further information, please call Ms. Catucci at (202) 443-5797.

    Dated: December 13, 2016.
