Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration
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 at (240) 276–
0361.
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: National Substance
Use and Mental Health Services Survey
(N–SUMHSS) (OMB No. 0930–)
Historically SAMHSA collected
information on substance use and
mental health treatment facilities
through two (2) separate data
collections: The National Survey of
Substance Abuse Treatment Services
(N–SSATS; OMB No. 0930–0106) and
the National Mental Health Services
Survey (N–MHSS; OMB No. 0930–
0119). SAMHSA also maintain as part of
the N–SSATS data collection approval,
an inventory of treatment facility,
named the Inventory of Behavioral
Health Services (I–BHS) (N–SSATS;
OMB No. 0930–0106).
Some of the content and questions in
the N–SSATS and N–MHSS data
collection surveys are similar and
represented an additional burden to
approximately 14 percent of facilities
that received both surveys. SAMHSA
recognizes the need to have data
collections that are less burdensome to
these facilities that provide these
services. To help reduce respondent

36225
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 115 / Monday, June 15, 2020 / Notices
burden, increase efficiency, and better
manage resources, SAMHSA goal is to
combine these two surveys into the
National Substance Use and Mental
Health Services Survey (N–SUMHSS).
The N–SUMHSS, will include the
facility characteristics and services
questions currently asked in the N–
SSATS and the N–MHSS. The survey
will also collect, on an annual basis,
client counts on those individuals
receiving services at these facilities.
Historically, client count information
was collected every other year; however
there is an increasing need to collect
and maintain data on current and
accurate numbers of clients in treatment
at the local level for community to
assess capacity and estimate resource
requirements. This information on
substance use and mental health
services has assisted with communities
to better respond to life changing events,
(i.e., hurricane) and plan for service
demands in the event of a natural
disaster, (i.e., earthquakes).
SAMHSA requests is for approval of
the N–SUMHSS data collection and the
extension of the I–BHS data collection.
Type of respondent and activity
The N–SUMHSS survey will provide
data on the numbers and types of
patients treated and the characteristics
of facilities providing substance use and
mental health treatment services. The
extension of the duration of the I–BHS
survey, which is current authorized as
part of N–SSATS (OMB No. 0930–0106),
aligns it to the same period as the N–
SUMHSS. These surveys are conducted
under the authority of Section 505 of the
Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C.
290aa–4) to meet the specific mandates
for annual information about public and
private substance use/mental health
treatment providers and the clients they
serve.
This request includes:
• N–SUMHSS, an annual census of
substance use and mental health
treatment facilities which collects
descriptive data on the location, scope
of services provided, and operational
characteristics of all known substance
use and mental health treatment
facilities in the United States and
jurisdictions, and on utilization of
services by means of a single-day count
of clients in treatment; and
Number of
respondents
Responses per
respondent
Total
responses
• I–BHS data collection activities
associated with updating the inventory
of both mental health treatment
facilities and substance use treatment
facilities.
The information in N–SUMHSS and
I–BHS is needed to assess the nature
and extent of these resources, to identify
gaps in services, and to provide a
database for treatment referrals.
The request for OMB approval will
include a request to conduct the N–
SUMHSS survey which includes facility
characteristics and services and one-day
client counts and to update the I–BHS
facility listing on a continuous basis in
2021, 2022 and 2023. Also included in
this request is the Between Cycle N–
SUMHSS data collection (N–SUMHSS
BC), to be conducted between annual
surveys to collect information on new
facilities for inclusion in the Treatment
Locator. N–SUMHSS BC use is an
abbreviated N–SUMHSS survey
questionnaire.
