with the range of ways that women with
opioid use disorder may access
substance use treatment or maternity
care. The guide will provide options for
clinical interventions that recognize the
complexities of patients’ lives. The
guide will also include discussion of
any conflicting evidence and clinician,
treatment or patient characteristics that
directly influence the appropriateness
or effectiveness of a given clinical
intervention. The paucity of the
evidence to support specific
interventions will be addressed in the
guide. As such, the guide will present
options based on current clinical
practice, paired with the risks and
benefits of each option as currently
understood.
Public comment is sought in two
general areas: The outcomes of the RAM
process and the strategy to translate
these findings into a clinical guide.
Relevant public comment will inform
the development and final appearance
of the guide. Members of the expert
panel, FSC, and a variety of professional
societies will be asked to provide input
into the guide outline and drafting of
the guide which will then be subject to
a formal federal clearance process
including scientific review.
Supporting and Related Material in
the Docket: The report contains the
materials to help inform public
comment. The appendices include
listings of participants, more detailed
information about the literature search,
citations of primary references and data
tables that were used by SAMHSA to
develop the findings in the report. The
information provided includes:
(1) The REPORT
(2) Supporting appendices: Appendix
A: RAM Process Participants; Appendix
B: Literature Review Methods;
Appendix C: RAM Reference List and
Appendices D–E7: Rated Indications

Proposed Project: SAMHSA Disaster
Technical Assistance Center Disaster
Behavioral Health Needs Assessment
and Customer Satisfaction Surveys
(OMB No. 0930–0325)—Revision
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) is requesting approval for a
revision to the data collection associated
with the SAMHSA Disaster Technical
Assistance Center (DTAC) Disaster
Behavioral Health Needs Assessment
and Customer Satisfaction Surveys
(OMB No. 0930–0325), which expire on
May 31, 2017. Specifically, SAMHSA
DTAC plans to consolidate the Needs
Assessment Survey and Customer
Satisfaction Surveys into a single
instrument. The new revised
instrument, entitled SAMHSA DTAC
Customer Feedback Survey (CFS), under
this effort will also include a change in
administration to make it appropriate
for a single, streamlined survey.
The proposed data collection effort
will provide feedback on the overall
effectiveness of SAMHSA DTAC’s
services, ongoing needs at the national
level, and areas that require enhanced
technical assistance (TA) services.
SAMHSA DTAC will be responsible
for administering the data collection
instrument and analyzing the data.
SAMHSA DTAC will use data from the
instrument to inform current and future
TA activities and to ensure these

activities continue to align with state
and local needs.
A three-year clearance is being
requested. The SAMHSA DTAC CFS is
designed to allow the agency to collect
feedback on the overall effectiveness of
the services provided by SAMHSA
DTAC, as well as ongoing data regarding
disaster behavioral health (mental
health and substance use-related) needs
at the national level and areas that
require enhanced training and technical
assistance (TA) services. This is the
information that was previously
collected as part of the SAMHSA DTAC
Needs Assessment Survey (NAS) and
Customer Satisfaction Survey (CSS).
Data from this effort will continue to be
used to improve services to
jurisdictions, which will lead to (1)
better integration of disaster behavioral
health (DBH) needs with all-hazards
disaster preparedness and response, and
(2) improved outcomes at the state,
territory, tribal, and local levels with
less burden on participants. The new
Customer Feedback Survey integrates
and consolidates questions from the
previously utilized NAS and CSS,
which will reduce burden associated
with the number of instruments and
survey questions. SAMHSA DTAC will
continue to be responsible for survey
administration and analysis of the data
collected, which SAMHSA will use to
inform current and future training and
TA activities. Table 1 shows the
estimated burden associated with CFS
data collection activities and the
associated costs. It is anticipated that
the survey will be administered once
each year.
Participation in the Customer
Feedback Survey will be solicited from
all 50 states, the U.S. territories, and the
District of Columbia. The survey will be
administered to individuals who have
requested TA within the six months
prior to administration and those who
are subscribed to DTAC’s ecommunications, SAMHSA DTAC
Bulletin, or The Dialogue, at the time of
administration. Internet-based
technology will be used to collect data
via web-based survey for data entry and
management.

Medical Care Services. This
reinstatement request utilizes revised
versions of the site visit interview guide
approved under the Minority AIDS
Initiative—Targeted Capacity Expansion
(MAI–TCE) Grantees Integrating HIV
Primary Care, Substance Abuse, and
Behavioral Health Services (OMB NO.
0930–0336). The two rounds of
interviews (baseline and follow-up)
target the collection of programmaticlevel data (e.g., community context,
organizational structure, and staffing
and staff development, services and
service model, outreach, referral and
enrollment into services, services/care
coordination and integration and
funding for integrated services and
program successes and challenges)
through one-on-one and group
interviews with grantees who are part of
the MAI–CoC program.
The goal of the MAI–CoC project is to
integrate behavioral health treatment,
prevention, and HIV and Hepatitis
medical care services for racial/ethnic
minority populations at high risk for
behavioral health disorders who are also
at high risk for or living with HIV and
Hepatitis. The program also supports
other priority populations including
men who have sex with men (MSM) and
bisexual men, transgender persons, and
people with substance use disorder. The
program is primarily intended for
substance use disorder treatment and
community mental health providers to
provide coordinated and integrated
services through the collocation and/or
integration of behavioral health
treatment and HIV and Hepatitis
medical care. Interviews conducted
with MAI–CoC grantees during the two
rounds of site visits are an integral part
of evaluation efforts to: (1) Assess the

impact of the SAMHSA-funded HIV and

and reducing HIV and Hepatitis-related
disparities; (2) Describe the different
integrated behavioral health and
medical program models; and (3)
Determine which program types or
models are most effective in improving
behavioral health and clinical outcomes.
Over the four-year project, SAMHSA
will conduct two rounds of these inperson site visits (baseline and followup) with each of the 34 MAI–CoC
program grantees.
SAMHSA will conduct one-on-one
and group interviews with MAI–CoC
grantee staff who will provide
information on their program’s
integration of HIV and Hepatitis
prevention, medical care, and primary
care into behavioral health services.
While participating in the evaluation is
a condition of the grantees’ funding,
participating in the interview process is
voluntary. The instruments are designed
to collect information about: (1) The
development and changes in MAI–CoC
program operations, staffing, training
and programming; (2) the grantee
organization, the MAI–CoC program and
its structure, the community context
surrounding program efforts, and
changes that result from MAI–CoC
activities; and, (3) the changes in the
number or nature of partnerships and
collaborations both internal and
external to the MAI–CoC program
grantee.
