Chapter 35). To request a copy of these documents, call the SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276–1243. Project: National Evaluation of the Comprehensive Community Mental Health Services for Children and Their Families Program: Phase V (OMB No. 0930–0280)—Revision The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) is responsible for the National Evaluation of the Comprehensive Community Mental Health Services for Children and Their Families Program, which collects data on child mental health outcomes, family life, and service system development and performance. Data will be collected on 30 service systems and roughly 8,810 children and families. The data collection for this evaluation will be conducted for a 3-year period. The core of service system data will be collected twice (every 18 to 24 months) during the 3-year evaluation period. A sustainability survey will be conducted in selected years. Service delivery and system variables of interest include the following: Maturity of system of care development; adherence to the system of care program model; services received by youth and their families, and the costs of those services; and consumer service experience. The length of time that individual families will participate in the study ranges from 18 to 36 months depending on when they enter the evaluation. Child and family outcomes of interest will be collected at intake and during subsequent follow-up interviews at sixmonth intervals. Client service experience information is collected at these follow-up interviews. Measures included in an outcome interview are determined by the type of assessment (intake or follow-up), child’s age, and whether the respondent is the caregiver or a youth. The outcome measures include the following: Child symptomatology and functioning, family functioning, material resources, and caregiver strain. The caregiver interview package includes the Caregiver Information Questionnaire, Child Behavior Checklist, Behavioral and Emotional Rating Scale (BERS), Education Questionnaire, Columbia Impairment Questionnaire, Living Situations Questionnaire, Family Life Questionnaire, and Caregiver Strain Questionnaire at intake, and also includes the Multi-service Sector Contacts Form, Cultural Competence and Service Provision Questionnaire and the Youth Services Survey (a national outcome measurement tool) at follow-up assessments. Caregivers of children under age 6 complete the Vineland Screener to assess development, and do not complete the BERS. The Youth Interview package includes the Youth Information Questionnaire, Revised Children’s Manifest Anxiety Scale, Reynolds Depression Scale, BERS (youth version), Delinquency Survey, Substance Use Survey, GAIN-Quick: Substance Dependence Scale, and Youth Services Survey (youth version). The evaluation also includes three special studies: (1) An evidence-based practices study that examines the effects of various factors on the implementation and use of evidence-based treatments and approaches in system of care communities; (2) A cultural and linguistic competence study that examines the extent to which the cultural and linguistic characteristics of communities influence program implementation and provider adaptation of evidence-based treatments, and provider service delivery decisions based on provider culture and language; and (3) an evaluation of the communities’ use of reports produced by the national evaluation for continuous quality improvement. The national evaluation measures address the national outcome measures for mental health programs as currently established by SAMHSA. Table 1 summarizes which national evaluation components are unchanged from the original 2006 submission and which are new or changed.

Type of Information Collection Request: Extension of a currently approved collection; Title of Information Collection: Application for Hospital Insurance Benefits for Individuals with End Stage Renal Disease: Use: Effective July 1, 1973, individuals with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) became entitled to Medicare. Because this entitlement has a different set of requirements, the existing applications for Medicare were not sufficient to capture the information needed to determine Medicare entitlement under the ESRD provisions of the law. The Application for Hospital Insurance Benefits for Individuals with End Stage Renal Disease, was designed to capture all the information needed to make a Medicare entitlement determination; Form Numbers: CMS–43 (OMB#: 0938–0800; Frequency: Reporting—Once; Affected Public: Individuals or households; Number of Respondents: 60,000; Total Annual Responses: 60,000; Total Annual Hours: 25989.

Type of Information Collection Request: Extension of a currently approved collection; Title of Information Collection: Request for Termination of Premium Hospital and/ or Supplementary Medical Insurance: Use: The Social Security Act (the Act) allows a Medicare enrollee to voluntarily terminate Supplementary Medical Insurance (Part B) and/or the premium Hospital Insurance (premiumPart A) coverage by filing a written request with CMS or the Social Security Administration (SSA). The Act also stipulates when coverage will end based upon the date the request was filed. Because Medicare is recognized as a valuable protection against the high cost of medical and hospital bills, when an individual wishes to voluntarily terminate Part B and/or premium Part A, CMS and SSA requests the reason that an individual wishes to terminate coverage to ensure that the individual understands the ramifications of the decision. The Request for Termination of Premium Hospital and/or Supplementary Medical Insurance, PO 00000 Frm 00043 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 provides a standardized form to satisfy the requirements of law as well as allowing both agencies to protect the individual from an inappropriate decision; Form Numbers: CMS–1763 (OMB#: 0938–0025; Frequency: Reporting—Once; Affected Public: Individuals or households; Number of Respondents: 14,000; Total Annual Responses: 14,000; Total Annual Hours: 5,831.

This payment is an add-on to the set amount per case CMS pays to hospitals under the Medicare Inpatient Prospective Payment System (IPPS). Under current regulations at 42 CFR 412.106, in order to meet the qualifying criteria for this additional DSH payment, a hospital must prove that a disproportionate percentage of its patients are low income using Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid as proxies for this determination. This percentage includes two computations: (1) The ‘‘Medicare fraction’’ or the ‘‘SSI ratio’’ which is the percent of patient days for beneficiaries who are eligible for Medicare Part A and SSI and (2) the ‘‘Medicaid fraction’’ which is the percent of patient days for patients who are eligible for Medicaid but not Medicare. Once a hospital qualifies for this DSH payment, CMS also determines a hospital’s payment adjustment; Form Numbers: CMS–R– 194 (OMB#: 0938–0691; Frequency: Reporting—Occasionally; Affected Public: Business or other for-profit and Not-for-profit institutions; Number of Respondents: 800; Total Annual Responses: 800; Total Annual Hours: E:\FR\FM\31JYN1.SGM 31JYN1

Project: National Evaluation of the Comprehensive Community Mental 
Health Services for Children and Their Families Program: Phase V (OMB 
No. 0930-0280)--Revision

    The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration 
(SAMHSA) Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) is responsible for 
the National Evaluation of the Comprehensive Community Mental Health 
Services for Children and Their Families Program, which collects data 
on child mental health outcomes, family life, and service system 
development and performance. Data will be collected on 30 service 
systems and roughly 8,810 children and families.
    The data collection for this evaluation will be conducted for a 3-
year period. The core of service system data will be collected twice 
(every 18 to 24 months) during the 3-year evaluation period. A 
sustainability survey will be conducted in selected years. Service 
delivery and system variables of interest include the following: 
Maturity of system of care development; adherence to the system of care 
program model; services received by youth and their families, and the 
costs of those services; and consumer service experience.
    The length of time that individual families will participate in the 
study ranges from 18 to 36 months depending on when they enter the 
evaluation. Child and family outcomes of interest will be collected at 
intake and during subsequent follow-up interviews at six-month 
intervals. Client service experience information is collected at these 
follow-up interviews. Measures included in an outcome interview are 
determined by the type of assessment (intake or follow-up), child's 
age, and whether the respondent is the caregiver or a youth.
    The outcome measures include the following: Child symptomatology 
and functioning, family functioning, material resources, and caregiver 
strain. The caregiver interview package includes the Caregiver 
Information Questionnaire, Child Behavior Checklist, Behavioral and 
Emotional Rating Scale (BERS), Education Questionnaire, Columbia 
Impairment Questionnaire, Living Situations Questionnaire, Family Life 
Questionnaire, and Caregiver Strain Questionnaire at intake, and also 
includes the Multi-service Sector Contacts Form, Cultural Competence 
and Service Provision Questionnaire and the Youth Services Survey (a 
national outcome measurement tool) at follow-up assessments. Caregivers 
of children under age 6 complete the Vineland Screener to assess 
development, and do not complete the BERS. The Youth Interview package 
includes the Youth Information Questionnaire, Revised Children's 
Manifest Anxiety Scale, Reynolds Depression Scale, BERS (youth 
version), Delinquency Survey, Substance Use Survey, GAIN-Quick: 
Substance Dependence Scale, and Youth Services Survey (youth version).
    The evaluation also includes three special studies: (1) An 
evidence-based practices study that examines the effects of various 
factors on the implementation and use of evidence-based treatments and 
approaches in system of care communities; (2) A cultural and linguistic 
competence study that examines the extent to which the cultural and 
linguistic characteristics of communities influence program 
implementation and provider adaptation of evidence-based treatments, 
and provider service delivery decisions based on provider culture and 
language; and (3) an evaluation of the communities' use of reports 
produced by the national evaluation for continuous quality improvement. 
The national evaluation measures address the national outcome measures 
for mental health programs as currently established by SAMHSA.
    Table 1 summarizes which national evaluation components are 
unchanged from the original 2006 submission and which are new or 
changed.

    Internet-based technology will be used for data entry and 
management, and for collecting data using Web-based surveys. The 
average annual respondent burden, with detail provided about burden 
contributed by specific measures, is estimated below. The estimate 
reflects the average number of respondents in each respondent category, 
the average number of responses per respondent per year, the average 
length of time it will take for each response, and the total average 
annual burden for each category of respondent and for all categories of 
respondents combined.

\1\ An average of 21 constituents in up to 30 grant communities will complete the System of Care Assessment
  interview. These constituents will include site administrative staff, providers, agency representatives,
  family representatives, and youth.
\2\ Number of respondents across 30 grantees. Average based on a 5 percent attrition rate at each data
  collection point.
\3\ Average number of responses per respondent is a weighted average of the possible numbers of responses per
  respondent for communities beginning data collection in FY2007 and FY2008. The maximum numbers of responses
  per respondent are for 24 communities beginning data collection in FY2007, 1 follow-up data collection point
  remaining for children/youth recruited in year 2 (of grant community funding), 3 for children/youth recruited
  in year 3, 4 for children/youth recruited in year 4, and 4 for children/youth recruited in year 5. The maximum
  numbers of responses per respondent are, for 6 communities beginning data collection in FY2008, 3 follow-up
  data collection points remaining for children/youth recruited in year 2 (of grant community funding), 5 for
  children/youth recruited in year 3, 6 for children/youth recruited in year 4, and 4 for children/youth
  recruited in year 5.
\4\ Approximate number of caregivers with children over age 5, based on Phase V data submitted as of 12/08.
\5\ Approximate number of caregivers with children 3 and older, based on Phase V data submitted as of 12/08.
\6\ Approximate number of caregivers with children 5 or under, based on Phase V data submitted as of 12/08.
\7\ Based on Phase III and IV finding that approximately 60 percent of the children/youth in the evaluation were
  11 years old or older.
\8\ Respondents only complete Service Experience Study measures at follow-up points. See Footnote 3 for
  the explanation about the average number of responses per respondent.

\9\ Staff will enter data on flexible funds expenditures into a Web-based application or will recode existing
  data on flexible funds expenditures to match the Flex Funds Data Dictionary format. Each community will use
  flexible funds expenditures on average for approximately one-quarter of the estimated 356 children/youth
  enrolled, suggesting a total of 89 children/youth will receive services from flexible funds per community.
  Thus, there will be data entered for 89 x 30 = 2,670 children/youth using the Flex Funds Data Dictionary.
\10\ Assumes that three expenditures, on average, will be spent on each child/youth receiving flexible fund
  benefits.
\11\ Staff will collect paper-based forms from agencies and enter them into a Web-based application or will
  extract data from agencies' existing data systems. Staff will recode data to match the Services and Costs Data
  Dictionary format. Service and costs records will be compiled for all 356 x 30 = 10,680 children/youth
  enrolled.
\12\ Assumes that each child/youth will have 100 service episodes, on average, during his/her time in a system
  of care.
\13\ This survey will be administered in 5 communities funded in 2006, 25 communities funded in 2005, 2
  communities funded in 2000, and 20 communities funded in 1999. For each community, one respondent will be a
  caregiver and three respondents will be administrators/providers.

    Written comments and recommendations concerning the proposed 
information collection should be sent by August 31, 2009 to: SAMHSA 
Desk Officer, Human Resources and Housing Branch, Office of Management 
and Budget, New Executive Office Building, Room 10235, Washington, DC 
20503; due to potential delays in OMB's receipt and processing of mail 
sent through the U.S. Postal Service, respondents are encouraged to 
submit comments by fax to: 202-395-6974.

    Dated: July 27, 2009.
