Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration


Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request

    Periodically, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services 
Administration (SAMHSA) will publish a summary of information 
collection requests under OMB review, in compliance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of these 
documents, call the SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276-1243.

Project: Services Accountability Improvement System--(OMB No. 0930-
0208)--Revision

    The Services Accountability Improvement System (SAIS) is a real-
time, performance management system that captures information on the 
substance abuse treatment and mental health services delivered in the 
United States. A wide range of client and program information is 
captured through SAIS for approximately 650 grantees. Continued 
approval of this information collection will allow SAMHSA to continue 
to meet Government Performance and Results Modernization Act of 2010 
(GPRMA) reporting requirements that quantify the effects and 
accomplishments of its discretionary grant programs which are 
consistent with OMB guidance.
    Based on current funding and planned fiscal year 2016 notice of 
funding announcements (NOFA), the CSAT programs that will use these 
measures in fiscal years 2016 through 2018 include: Access to Recovery 
(ATR) 3 and 4; Adult Treatment Court Collaborative (ATCC); Enhancing 
Adult Drug Court Services, Coordination and Treatment (EADCS); Offender 
Reentry Program (ORP); Treatment Drug Court (TDC); Office of Juvenile 
Justice and Delinquency Prevention--Juvenile Drug Courts (OJJDP-JDC); 
HIV/AIDS Outreach Program; Targeted Capacity Expansion Program for 
Substance Abuse Treatment and HIV/AIDS Services (TCE-HIV); Addictions 
Treatment for the Homeless (AT-HM); Cooperative Agreements to Benefit 
Homeless Individuals (CABHI); Cooperative Agreements to Benefit 
Homeless Individuals--States (CABHI-States); Recovery-Oriented Systems 
of Care (ROSC); Targeted Capacity Expansion--Peer to Peer (TCE-PTP); 
Pregnant and Postpartum Women (PPW); Screening, Brief Intervention and 
Referral to Treatment (SBIRT); Targeted Capacity Expansion (TCE); 
Targeted Capacity Expansion--Health Information Technology (TCE-HIT); 
Targeted Capacity Expansion Technology Assisted Care (TCE-TAC); 
Addiction Technology Transfer Centers (ATTC); International Addiction 
Technology Transfer Centers (I-ATTC); State Adolescent Treatment 
Enhancement and Dissemination (SAT-ED); Grants to Expand Substance 
Abuse Treatment Capacity in Adult Tribal Healing to Wellness Courts and 
Juvenile Drug Courts; and Grants for the Benefit of Homeless 
Individuals--Services in Supportive Housing (GBHI). Grantees in the 
Adult Treatment Court Collaborative program (ATCC) will also provide 
program-level data using the CSAT Aggregate Instrument.
    SAMHSA and its Centers will use the data for annual reporting 
required by GPRA and for NOMs comparing baseline with discharge and 
follow-up data. GPRA requires that SAMHSA's report for each fiscal year 
include actual results of performance monitoring for the three 
preceding fiscal years. The additional information collected through 
this process will allow SAMHSA to report on the results of these 
performance outcomes as well as be consistent with the specific 
performance domains that SAMHSA is implementing as the NOMs, to assess 
the accountability and performance of its discretionary and formula 
grant programs.
    Note changes have been made to add the recovery measure questions 
to the instrument from the previous OMB approval. The recovery measure 
questions are:
     How satisfied are you with the conditions of your living 
space?
     Have you enough money to meet your needs?
     How would you rate your quality of life?
     How satisfied are you with your health?
     Do you have enough energy for everyday life?
     How satisfied are you with your ability to perform your 
daily activities?
     How satisfied are you with yourself?
     How satisfied are you with your personal relationships?
