• Participant Feedback. These
surveys are completed by and collected
from a sample of service recipients, not
every recipient. A time sampling
approach (e.g., soliciting participation
from all counseling encounters one
week per quarter) will be used.
Information collected includes
satisfaction with services, perceived
improvements in self-functioning, types
of exposure, and event reactions.
• CCP Service Provider Feedback.
These surveys are completed by and
collected from the CCP service
providers anonymously at six months
and one year postevent. The survey will
be coded on several program-level as
well as worker-level variables. However,
the program itself will be identified and
shared with program management only
if the number of individual workers was
greater than 20.

whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the

Proposed Project Behavioral Health

Collection Activity—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 to conduct
qualitative data collection activities (i.e.,
focus group and site visits) to assess
health information technology (HIT)
adoption practices 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
questions that will examine 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 expand data
necessary to inform the Agency’s
strategic initiative that focuses on
fostering the adoption of health
information technologies in community
behavioral health services. The
qualitative activities will elicit success
stories, challenges to adopting health
information technologies, and lessons
learned regarding SAMHSA grantee
access to and use of health information
technology and will provide valuable
information to inform the behavioral
health information technology
literature.
Approval of this data collection effort
by the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) will allow SAMHSA to
identify the current status of health
information technology adoption and
use among a select group of grantees
who have demonstrated success in at
least one of the identified health
information technology categories:
Certified electronic health records,
telehealth technologies, mobile health,
and social media-based consumer
engagement tools. Data from the focus
groups and site visits will allow
SAMHSA to enhance the health
information technology-related
programmatic activities among its

grantees by providing data on how
health information technologies
facilitate the implementation of
different types of SAMHSA grants;
thereby fostering the appropriate
adoption of health information
technologies within SAMSHA-funded
programs.
Ten (10) respective focus groups and
site visit sessions will collect qualitative
data to provide a snapshot view of the
current state of health information
technology adoption. The focus groups
will include up to six participations per
session and will be representative of the
ten Department of Health and Human
Services Regions. Site visit participants
will be selected from among SAMHSAfunded grant programs and non-profit
community behavioral health providers
nominated by Project Officers as
exemplars in the field of health
information technologies, with
recognized success in at least one of the
four health information technology
domain categories.
The proposed ten (10) in-person focus
group sessions will not exceed 90minutes in duration and will be limited
to no less than six (6) and no more than
(8) participants. The proposed ten (10)
in-person site visit sessions will not

sessions are expected to occur between

will allow sufficient time for food and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES:
Background
The US-VISIT Program
The Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) established the United
States Visitor and Immigrant Status
Indicator Technology (US-VISIT)
Program in accordance with several
federal statutory mandates requiring
DHS to create an integrated, automated
entry and exit system that records the
arrival and departure of aliens, verifies
the aliens’ identities, and authenticates
PO 00000
Frm 00060
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
aliens’ travel documents through the
comparison of biometric identifiers.
Under these various federal statutory
mandates, certain aliens may be
required to provide biometrics
(including digital fingerprint scans,
photographs, facial and iris images, or
other biometric identifiers 1) upon
arrival in, or departure from, the United
States.
On March 16, 2013, US-VISIT’s entry
and exit operations, including
deployment of a biometric exit system,
were transferred to U.S. Customs and
Border Protection (CBP). See
Consolidated and Further Continuing
Appropriations Act, 2013, Public Law
113–6, 127 Stat. 198 (2013). The Act
also transferred the US-VISIT Program’s
overstay analysis function to U.S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement
(ICE) and its biometric identity
management services to the Office of
Biometric Management (OBIM), a
newly-created office within the National
Protection and Programs Directorate.
CBP assumed responsibility for
operating biometric entry and
implementing biometric exit programs
on April 1, 2013.
Since the transfer of US-VISIT’s entry
and exit operations to CBP, CBP has
continued to consider ways to collect
1 As used in this notice, a ‘‘biometric identifier’’
is a physical characteristic or other physical
attribute unique to an individual that can be
collected, stored, and used to verify the identity of
a person who presents himself or herself to a CBP
officer at the border. To verify a person’s identity,
a similar physical characteristic or attribute is
collected and compared against the previously
collected identifier.
