Proposed Project Behavioral Health
Information Technologies Survey—
NEW
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) Center for Substance Abuse
Treatment (CSAT) and Center for
Behavioral Health Statistics and Quality
(CBHSQ) are proposing a survey to
assess health information technology
(HIT) adoption among SAMHSA
grantees. As part of its Strategic
Initiative to advance the use of health
information technologies to support
integrated behavioral health care,
SAMHSA has been working to develop
a survey instrument that will examine

the status of and plans for HIT adoption
by behavioral health service providers
who are implementing SAMHSA grant
programs. The selected programs are
funded by the by the Center for Mental
Health Services (CMHS), the Center for
Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP),
and (CSAT).
This project seeks to acquire baseline
data necessary to inform the Agency’s
strategic initiative that focuses on
fostering the adoption of HIT in
community behavioral health services.
The survey of SAMHSA grantees
regarding their access to and use of
health information technology will
provide valuable information that will
inform the behavioral HIT literature.
Approval of this data collection by the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) will allow SAMHSA to identify
the current status of HIT adoption and
use among a diverse group of grantees.
Data from the survey will allow
SAMHSA to enhance the HIT-related
programmatic activities among its
grantees by providing data on how HIT
facilitates the implementation of
different types of SAMHSA grants,
thereby fostering the appropriate
adoption of HIT within SAMSHAfunded programs.
The survey will collect data once,
providing a snapshot view of the current
state of HIT adoption. The proposed
participant pool is comprised of
SAMHSA grantee program leadership
who are willing to provide the
assistance needed to ensure a high rate
of response. Awardees from nine
different SAMHSA programs drawn
from CMHS, CSAT, and CSAP comprise
the pool of survey participants.
The survey mode for data collection
will be web-based with embedded skip
logic for respondents to avoid questions
that are not applicable to them. The
minimum amount of time for a
respondent to complete the survey is 20
minutes, with respondents who do not
skip items taking a maximum of 30
minutes for completion. The total
estimated respondent burden is 149.6
hours.
