Agency Information Collection
Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
In compliance with Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 concerning
opportunity for public comment on
proposed collections of information, the
Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration (SAMHSA)
will publish periodic summaries of
proposed projects. To request more
information on the proposed projects or
to obtain a copy of the information
collection plans, call the SAMHSA
Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276–
1243.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collections of information
are necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the proposed collection
of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Proposed Project: Services
Accountability Improvement System—
(OMB No. 0930–0208)—Revision
The Services Accountability
Improvement System (SAIS) is a realtime, performance management system
that captures information on the
substance abuse treatment and mental
health services delivered in the United
States. A wide range of client and
program information is captured
through SAIS for approximately 650
grantees. Continued approval of this
information collection will allow
SAMHSA to continue to meet
Government Performance and Results
Act of 1993 (GPRA) reporting
requirements that quantify the effects
and accomplishments of its
discretionary grant programs which are
consistent with OMB guidance.
Based on current funding and
planned fiscal year 2015 notice of
funding announcements (NOFA), the
CSAT programs that will use these
measures in fiscal years 2015 through
2017 include: Access to Recovery 3
(ATR3); Adult Treatment Court
Collaboratives (ATCC); Enhancing Adult
Drug Court Services, Coordination and
Treatment (EADCS); Offender Reentry
Program (ORP); Treatment Drug Court
(TDC); Office of Juvenile Justice and
Delinquency Prevention—Juvenile Drug
Courts (OJJDP–JDC); Teen Court
Program (TCP); HIV/AIDS Outreach
Program; Targeted Capacity Expansion
Program for Substance Abuse Treatment
and HIV/AIDS Services (TCE–HIV);
Addictions Treatment for the Homeless
(AT–HM); Cooperative Agreements to
Benefit Homeless Individuals (CABHI);
Cooperative Agreements to Benefit
Homeless Individuals—States (CABHI–
States); Recovery-Oriented Systems of
Care (ROSC); Targeted Capacity
Expansion—Peer to Peer (TCE–PTP);
Pregnant and Postpartum Women
(PPW); Screening, Brief Intervention
and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT);
Targeted Capacity Expansion (TCE);
Targeted Capacity Expansion—Health
Information Technology (TCE–HIT);
Targeted Capacity Expansion
Technology Assisted Care (TCE–TAC);
Addiction Technology Transfer Centers
(ATTC); International Addiction
Technology Transfer Centers (I–ATTC);
State Adolescent Treatment
Enhancement and Dissemination (SAT–
ED); Grants to Expand Substance Abuse
Treatment Capacity in Adult Tribal
Healing to Wellness Courts and Juvenile
Drug Courts; and Grants for the Benefit
of Homeless Individuals—Services in
Supportive Housing (GBHI). Grantees in
the Adult Treatment Court Collaborative
program (ATCC) will also provide
program-level data using the CSAT
Aggregate Instrument.
SAMHSA and its Centers will use the
data for annual reporting required by
GPRA and for National Outcome
Measures (NOMs) comparing baseline
with discharge and follow-up data.
GPRA requires that SAMHSA’s report
for each fiscal year include actual
results of performance monitoring for
the three preceding fiscal years. The
additional information collected
through this process will allow
SAMHSA to report on the results of
these performance outcomes as well as
be consistent with the specific
performance domains that SAMHSA is
implementing as the NOMs, to assess
the accountability and performance of
its discretionary and formula grant
programs.
Note that there are no changes to the
instrument from the previous OMB
submission.
