DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
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: 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
March 31, 2019. 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:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Number of
respondents Responses per Total Hours per Total burden
Type of activity (states/ respondent responses response hours
jurisdictions)

information collection should be sent by March 4, 2019 to the SAMHSA
