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.

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 PO 00000 Frm 00100 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 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 Number of respondents Data collection tool mstockstill on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES Number of respondents Instrument Number of responses per respondent impact of the SAMHSA-funded HIV and Hepatitis programs in: Reducing behavioral health disorders and HIV and Hepatitis infections; increasing access to substance use disorder and mental disorder treatment and care; improving behavioral and mental health outcomes; 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.

or to obtain a copy of the information collection plans, call the 
SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer at 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

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 e-communications, 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.
