Proposed Project: Program Evaluation for Prevention Contract (PEPC)--
Strategic Prevention Framework for Prescription Drugs (SPF-Rx) 
Evaluation (OMB No. 0930-0377)--Revision

    The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's 
(SAMHSA) Center for Behavioral Health Statistics and Quality (CBHSQ) 
aims to complete a cross-site evaluation of SAMHSA's Strategic 
Prevention Framework for Prescription Drugs (SPF-Rx). SPF-Rx is 
designed to address nonmedical use of prescription drugs as well as 
opioid overdoses by raising awareness about the dangers of sharing 
medications and by working with pharmaceutical and medical communities 
on the risks of overprescribing. The SPF-Rx program aims to promote 
collaboration between states/tribes and pharmaceutical and medical 
communities to understand the risks of overprescribing to youth ages 
12-17 and adults 18 years of age and older. The program also aims to 
enhance capacity for, and access to, Prescription Drug Monitoring 
Program (PDMP) data for prevention purposes. This request for data 
collection includes a revision from previously approved OMB 
instruments.
    The SPF-Rx program's indicators of success are reductions in opioid 
overdoses, reductions in prescription drug misuse, and improved use of 
PDMP data. Data collected through the tools described in this statement 
will be used for the national cross-site evaluation of SAMHSA's SPF-Rx 
program. This package covers continued data collection through 2023. 
The PEPC team will systematically collect and maintain an Annual 
Implementation Instrument (AII) and Grantee and Community Level 
Outcomes data modules submitted by SPF-Rx grantees through the online 
Data Management System (DMS).
    SAMHSA is requesting approval for data collection for the SPF-Rx 
cross-site evaluation with the following instruments:
     Annual Implementation Instrument (AII)--The AII is a 
survey instrument collected yearly to monitor state, tribal entity, and 
community-level performance, and to evaluate the effectiveness of the 
SPF-Rx program. This tool is completed by grantees and subrecipient 
community project directors, and provides process data related to 
funding use and effectiveness, organizational capacity, collaboration 
with community partners, data infrastructure, planned intervention 
targets, intervention implementation, evaluation, contextual factors, 
training and technical assistance (T/TA) needs, and sustainability.
     Grantee-and Community-Level Outcomes Modules--These 
modules collect data on key SPF-Rx program outcomes, including opioid 
prescribing patterns and provider use of PDMP. Grantees will provide 
outcomes data at the grantee level for their state, tribal area, or 
jurisdiction, as well as at the community level for each of their 
subrecipient communities.
     Grantee-Level Interview--This qualitative interview will 
be

administered at the end of the evaluation to obtain information from 
the grantee project directors on their programs, staffing, populations 
of focus, infrastructure, capacity, lessons learned, and collaboration.
