Proposed Project: 2011 Opioid
Treatment Program (OTP) Supplement
Survey—NEW
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration’s
(SAMHSA) Center for Behavioral Health
Statistics and Quality (CBHSQ)
(formerly the Office of Applied
Studies—OAS), in conjunction with the
Center for Substance Abuse Treatment
(CSAT), will conduct a facility-level
census survey of opioid treatment
programs (OTPs). Approximately 1,200
substance abuse treatment facilities
identified by SAMHSA as being
certified OTPs will make up the survey
universe. In order to realize efficiencies
in cost and data analysis, the survey
will be conducted in conjunction with
the 2011 National Survey of Substance
Abuse Treatment Facilities (N–SSATS,

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 190 / Friday, October 1, 2010 / Notices
OMB No. 0930–0106). However, a
separate OMB approval will be
requested for the OTP survey.
The OTP survey will use the same
point prevalence date as the N–SSATS
and will offer the same response options
(paper questionnaire, online via the
Internet, or by telephone with an
interviewer). The information collected
will include detailed information on
OTP client characteristics and OTP
facility operations, information that is
not currently obtained by the N–SSATS
or other federally-sponsored surveys.
The findings will supplement
information collected by the annual
N–SSATS and will be published by
SAMHSA in a separate report on Opioid
Treatment Programs. Survey data will
also be used to update SAMHSA’s
‘‘Medication-Assisted Treatment for
Opioid Addiction State Profiles.’’ These
publications will be used by the Federal
government, State and local
governments, the U.S. Congress,
researchers, and other health care
professionals. The following Table
summarizes the estimated response
burden for the survey.

Request: Revision of a currently
approval collection; Title of Information
Collection: Medicaid Drug Program
Monthly and Quarterly Drug Reporting
Format; Use: In order for payment to be
made under Medicaid, the drug labeler
must complete and sign a drug rebate
agreement and fill in the information on
the related documents. The Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act of
2010 added two new data elements to
potentially be reported by
manufacturers. In addition, the Food
and Drug Administration has informed
us that ‘‘DESI’’ is now obsolete;
therefore, we are replacing it with a
more appropriate ‘‘rebate eligibility
code’’ that will more accurately describe
how a product is eligible for coverage
under the drug rebate program. Form

Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT), will conduct a facility-
level census survey of opioid treatment programs (OTPs). Approximately

for the OTP survey.
The OTP survey will use the same point prevalence date as the N-
SSATS and will offer the same response options (paper questionnaire,
online via the Internet, or by telephone with an interviewer). The
information collected will include detailed information on OTP client
characteristics and OTP facility operations, information that is not

These publications will be used by the Federal government, State and
