Proposed Project: Treatment Episode
Data Set (TEDS) (OMB No. 0930–
0335)—Extension
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) is requesting an extension to
collect the Treatment Episode Data Set
(TEDS) data collection (OMB No. 0930–
0335), which expires on April 30, 2022.
TEDS is a compilation of client-level
substance use treatment admission and
discharge data submitted by states on
clients treated in facilities that receive
state funds. SAMHSA is also requesting
an extension to collect the client-level
mental health admission and update/
discharge data (MH–TEDS/MH–CLD)
submitted by states on clients treated in
facilities that receive state funds (also
OMB No. 0930–0335).
TEDS/MH–TEDS/MH–CLD data are
collected to obtain information on the
number of admissions and updates/
discharges at publicly funded substance
use treatment and mental health
services facilities and on the
characteristics of clients receiving
services at those facilities.
TEDS/MH–TEDS/MH–CLD also
monitor trends in the demographic,
substance use, and mental health
characteristics of admissions. In
addition, several of the data elements
used to calculate performance measures
for the Substance Abuse Block Grant
(SABG) and Mental Health Block Grant
(MHBG) applications are collected
through the TEDS/MH–TEDS/MH–CLD.
Most states collect the TEDS/MH–
TEDS/MH–CLD data elements from
their treatment providers for their own
administrative purposes and are able to
submit a cross-walked extract of their
data to TEDS/MH–TEDS/MH–CLD. No
changes are expected in the TEDS/MH–
TEDS/MH–CLD data elements that are
collected.
Estimated annual burden for the
separate TEDS/MH–TEDS/MH–CLD
activities is as follows:

The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Administration’s (SAMHSA) will
monitor program performance of its
Training and Technical Assistance
(TTA) Programs. The TTAs disseminate
current behavioral health services
research from the National Institute on
Drug Abuse, National Institute on
Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism,
National Institute of Mental Health,
National Institute of Justice, and other
sources, as well as other SAMHSA
programs. To accomplish this, the TTAs
develop and update state-of-the-art,
research-based curricula and
professional development training.
The TTAs hold a variety of events:
Technical assistance events, meetings,
trainings, presentations and learning
collaboratives. A TTA technical
assistance event is defined as a jointly
planned consultation generally
involving a series of contacts between
the TTA and an outside organization/
institution during which the TTA
program provides expertise and gives
direction toward resolving a problem or
improving conditions. Technical
assistance events can be categorized into
universal, targeted, and intensive. Other
TTA events such as meetings, training,
strategic planning and learning
collaboratives are utilized to support
technical assistance. These events are
TTA-sponsored or co-sponsored events
in which a group of people representing
one or more agencies other than the
TTA program work cooperatively on a
project, problem, and/or policy.
SAMHSA intends to use three (3)
instruments for program monitoring of
TTA events as well as ongoing quality
improvement, which are described
below.
1. Event Description Form (EDF): The
EDF collects event information. This
instrument asks approximately 10
questions of TTA faculty/staff relating to
the event focus and format. It allows the
PO 00000
Frm 00071
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
TTCs and SAMHSA to track the number
of events held (See Attachment 1).
2. TTA Post Event Form: The Post
Event Form will be administered
immediately following the event. It asks
approximately 15 questions of each
individual that participated in the event
(Attachment 2). The instrument asks the
participants to report on general
demographic information (gender,
sexual orientation, race, level of
education, primary profession),
principal employment setting,
employment zip code, satisfaction with
the event, if they expect the event to
benefit them professionally, if they
expect the event to change their practice
and if they would recommend the event
to a colleague.
3. TTA Follow-up Form: The Followup Form will be administered 60-days
after all events that last a minimum of
three (3) hours. The form will be
administered to a minimum of 25% of
participants who consent to participate
in the follow-up process. The form asks
about 14 questions (Attachment 3). The
instrument asks the participants to
report if the information provided in at
the event benefited their professional
development, will change their practice,
if they will use the information in their
future work, if information will be
shared with colleagues, how the event
supported their work responsibilities,
how the TTA program can improve the
events, what other topics would
participants like to see TTCs address
and in what format.
The information collected on the TTA
program forms will assist SAMHSA in
documenting the numbers and types of
participants in TTA events, describing
the extent to which participants report
improvement in their professional
development, and which method is
most effective in disseminating
knowledge to various audiences. This
type of information is crucial to support
SAMHSA in complying with GPRA
reporting requirements and will inform
future development of knowledge
dissemination activities.
