Information Collection Request Title:
Evaluation of the Certified Community
Behavioral Health Clinic Demonstration.
Abstract: The Office of the Assistant
Secretary for Planning and Evaluation
(ASPE) at the U.S. Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS) is
requesting Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) approval for data
collection activities to support the
evaluation of the Certified Community
Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC)
demonstration program.
In April 2014, Section 223 of the
Protecting Access to Medicare Act
(PAMA) mandated the CCBHC
demonstration to address some of the
challenges of access, coordination,
financing, and quality facing
community mental health centers
(CMHCs) across the country. The
CCBHC demonstration is intended to
improve the availability, quality, and
SUMMARY:
outcomes of CMHC ambulatory care by
establishing a standard definition and
criteria for CCBHCs, and developing a
new payment system that accounts for
the total cost of providing
comprehensive services to all
individuals who seek care. The
demonstration also aims to more fully
integrate primary and behavioral health
care services; ensure more consistent
use of evidence-based practices; and,
through enhanced standardized
reporting requirements, offer an
opportunity to assess the quality of care
provided by CCBHCs across the country.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: Section 223 of PAMA
requires the Secretary of HHS to provide
annual reports to Congress that include
an assessment of access to communitybased mental health services under
Medicaid, the quality and scope of
CCBHC services, and the impact of the
demonstration on federal and state costs
of a full range of mental health services.
In addition, PAMA requires the
Secretary to provide recommendations
regarding continuation, expansion,
modifications, or termination of the
demonstration no later than December
31, 2021. The data collected under this
submission will help ASPE address
research questions for the evaluation,
and inform the required reports to
Congress.
Likely Respondents: Respondents
include the following: Certified
Community Behavioral Health Clinic
demonstration grantees; State Medicaid
Officials; State Mental Health Officials;
and State Consumer/Family
Representatives.
The total annual burden hours
estimated for this ICR are summarized
in the table below.

Abstract: The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and
Evaluation (ASPE) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
(HHS) is requesting Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval for
data collection activities to support the evaluation of the Certified
Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) demonstration program.

Need and Proposed Use of the Information: Section 223 of PAMA
requires the Secretary of HHS to provide annual reports to Congress
that include an assessment of access to community-based mental health
services under Medicaid, the quality and scope of CCBHC services, and
the impact of the demonstration on federal and state costs of a full
range of mental health services. In addition, PAMA requires the
Secretary to provide recommendations regarding continuation, expansion,
modifications, or termination of the demonstration no later than
December 31, 2021. The data collected under this submission will help
ASPE address research questions for the evaluation, and inform the
required reports to Congress.

Community Behavioral Health Clinic demonstration grantees; State
Medicaid Officials; State Mental Health Officials; and State Consumer/
