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

Project: SAMHSA Transformation Accountability (TRAC) Data Collection 
Instrument (OMB No. 093-0285)--Revised

    The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration 
(SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) is proposing to 
modify one of its current Transformation Accountability (TRAC) system 
data collection tools to include previously piloted recovery measures. 
Specifically, this revision entails the incorporation of twelve 
recovery measures into the current CMHS NOMs Adult Client-level 
Measures for Discretionary Programs Providing Direct Services data 
collection tool. As part of its strategic initiative to support 
recovery from mental health and substance use disorders, SAMHSA has 
been working to develop a standard measure of recovery that can be used 
as part of its grantee performance reporting activities.
    This revision will add eight questions from the World Health 
Organization's (WHO) Quality of Life (QOL) to SAMHSA's existing set of 
Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) measures along with four 
additional measures that support the WHO QOL-8. Data will be collected 
at two time points--at client intake and at six months post-intake. 
These are two points in time during which SAMHSA grantees routinely 
collect data on the individuals participating in their programs.
    The WHO QOL-8 will assess the following domains using the items 
listed below:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Question No.                           Item                                 Domain

    Approval of these items by the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) will allow SAMHSA to further refine the Recovery Measure 
developed for this project. It will also help determine whether the 
Recovery Measure is added to SAMHSA's set of required performance 
measurement tools designed to aid in tracking recovery among clients 
receiving services from the Agency's funded programs.
