sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled MedicationAssisted Treatment (MAT) for Opioid
Use Disorders Study to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. CDC previously
published a ‘‘Proposed Data Collection
Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations’’ notice on June, 19,
2017 to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies. CDC
received three comments related to the
previous notice. This notice serves to
allow an additional 30 days for public
and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including, through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and
(e) Assess information collection
costs.
To request additional information on
the proposed project or to obtain a copy
of the information collection plan and
instruments, call (404) 639–7570 or
send an email to omb@cdc.gov. Direct
written comments and/or suggestions
regarding the items contained in this
notice to the Attention: CDC Desk
Officer, Office of Management and
Budget, 725 17th Street NW.,
Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202)

within 30 days of notice publication.
Proposed Project
Evaluation of Medication-Assisted
Treatment (MAT) for Opioid Use
Disorder—New—National Center for
Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
This is a new Information Collection
Request. CDC requests a three-year OMB
approval.
About 2 million people aged 12 or
older in the United States have Opioid
Use Disorders (OUDs) related to
prescription opioids and almost 600,000
have OUDs related to heroin use
(SAMHSA, 2015). OUD is a problematic
pattern of opioid use that cause
significant impairment or distress
characterized by unsuccessful efforts to
control use and failures to fulfill
obligations social, at work, or school,
yet many of these people do not receive
OUD treatment. Given the continued
need for treatment and the urgency of
the opioid epidemic, further
understanding of the individual and
contextual factors that may impact
treatment outcomes is needed. To help
address this need, the CDC is
conducting a study of 60 Opioid Use
Disorder (OUD) treatment facilities and
four primary care facilities located in 11
metropolitan statistical areas across the
United States. The respondent universe
includes individuals in the United
States who receive some form of OUD
treatment in the 11 MSAs.
Prospective participants will be
eligible if they are 18 to 64 years of age
and initiating one of four primary
treatments for OUD: Methadone
maintenance treatment (MMT),
buprenorphine (BUP), naltrexone
(NTX), or counseling treatment without
medication (COUN). The study aims to
enroll 3,560 clients across all sites to
better understand the relationship
between type of Medication Assisted
Treatment (MAT) and individual and
treatment facility characteristics, and
contextual factors.
The information gained from this data
collection will help inform policy
makers, communities, and providers on
how individual characteristics and
contextual factors may impact client
outcomes. The MAT study will also
provide a unique perspective for three
reasons: (1) It assesses the treatment,
individual, and contextual factors that
influence implementation and outcomes
in real-world settings; (2) its large target
sample size (n = 3,560); and, (3) the long
follow-up window (i.e., 24-month
follow-up period with clients). CDC has
collaborated with other relevant federal
agencies to avoid duplication and
maximize efficiencies in data collection.
The MAT Study design and protocols
have been reviewed and shared with
colleagues from the Substance Abuse
and Mental Health Services
Administration (SAMHSA) and the
National Institute on Drug Abuse
(NIDA).
Four overarching evaluation questions
guide the MAT Study. These questions
drive the research design, and CDC
developed this data collection effort to,
specifically, address these evaluation
questions. This data collection effort
captures a series of outcome measures
including the associated benefits (e.g.,
reductions in morbidity, mortality, and
drug overdoses; improvements in
socioeconomic outcomes and healthrelated quality of life [HRQOL]) and
potential risks (e.g., side effects,
diversion potential) of each treatment
alternative.
The study will use a mixed-methods
approach using quantitative methods
such as multilevel latent growth models,
propensity score matching, latent class
analysis and advanced mediation
analysis and qualitative methods such
as interactive coding and analysis for
common themes.
The total estimated annualized
burden for this collection is 3,093 hours.
The only cost to respondents will be
time spent responding to the surveys.
