Proposed Project: The Health Education 

Assistance Loan (HEAL) Program: 

Forms (OMB No. 0915–0043)— 

Extension 

The Health Education Assistance 

Loan (HEAL) program continues to 

administer and monitor outstanding 

loans which were provided to eligible 

students to pay for educational costs in 

a number of health professions. HEAL 

forms collect information that is 

required for responsible program 

management. The HEAL Repayment 

Schedule, Fixed and Variable, provides 

the borrower with the cost of a HEAL 

loan, the number and amount of 

payments, and the Truth-in-Lending 

disclosures. The Lender’s Report on 

HEAL Student Loans Outstanding (Call 

Report), provides information on the 

status of loans outstanding by the 

number of borrowers and total number 

of loans whose loan payments are in 

various stages of the loan cycle, such as 

student education and repayment, and 

the corresponding dollar amounts. 

These forms are needed to provide 

borrowers with information on the cost 

of their loan(s) and to determine which 

lenders may have excessive 

delinquencies and defaulted loans. 

The estimate of burden for the forms 

is as follows:

Proposed Project: Center for Mental 

Health Service (CMHS) Transformation 

Accountability (TRAC) Reporting 

System—Revision 

SAMHSA’s CMHS is requesting 

approval for a revision to the National 

Outcome Measures (NOMs) for 

Consumers Receiving Mental Health 

Services (OMB No. 0930–0285, 

Expiration Date: 4/30/2010). The name 

of this data collection effort is revised to 

the CMHS TRAC Reporting System 

(hereafter referred to as TRAC) to enable 

SAMHSA CMHS to consolidate its 

performance reporting activities within 

one package. This request includes a 

revision of the currently approved data 

collection effort directed at consumers 

of the Services (NOMs) programs; 

additional questions will enable CMHS 

to more fully explain grantee 

performance in relation to Agency and/ 

or program objectives. This request also 

includes the addition of two new 

surveys to be completed by the Project 

Directors of grants that include 

infrastructure development and 

prevention activities. These new 

instruments will enable SAMHSA 

CMHS to capture a standardized set of 

performance indicators using a uniform 

reporting method. 

These proposed data activities are 

intended to promote the use of 

consistent measures among CMHS 

grantees and contractors funded through 

the Program of Regional and National 

Significance (PRNS) and Children’s 

Mental Health Initiative (CMHI) budget 

lines. These common measures 

recommended by CMHS are a result of 

extensive examination and 

recommendations, using consistent 

criteria, by panels of staff, experts, and 

grantees. Wherever feasible, the 

proposed measures are consistent with 

or build upon previous data 

development efforts within CMHS. 

These data collection activities will be 

organized to reflect and support the 

domains specified for SAMHSA’s NOMs 

for the Services programs, and the 

categories developed by CMHS to 

specify the Infrastructure Development 

and Prevention program activities. The 

use of consistent measurement for 

specified outcomes across CMHSfunded projects will improve the ability 

of SAMHSA and CMHS to respond to 

the Government Performance and 

Results Act (GPRA) and the Office of 

Management and Budget Program 

Assessment Rating Tool (PART) 

evaluations. 

TRAC Reporting—Consumer NOMs 

Data Collection 

The currently approved data 

collection effort for the SAMHSA CMHS 

programs that provide direct treatment 

to consumers includes separate data 

collection forms that are parallel in 

design for use in interviewing adults 

and children (or their caregivers for 

children under the age of 11 years old). 

These SAMHSA TRAC data will be 

collected at baseline, at six month 

reassessments for as long as the 

consumer remains in treatment, and at 

discharge. The proposed data collection 

encompasses eight of the ten SAMHSA 

NOMs domains.

Total Number .................................................................................................................................................... 63 59 

1 Retention is defined as retention in the community. The indicator is based on use of psychiatric inpatient services, which is based on a measure from the Stability in Housing Domain. 

Changes to the current tools include 

the following: 

• The administrative section of all 

tools was changed to allow grantees to 

capture and track when consumers 

refuse interviews, consent cannot be 

obtained from proxy, and consumers are 

impaired or unable to provide consent. 

The administrative section of the 

children’s tools was additionally 

changed to capture whether the 

respondent is the child or his/her 

caregiver. 

• Questions were added to all tools to 

capture general health, psychological 

functioning, life in the community, and 

substance use. 

• CMHS reduced the data collection 

requirement for 3-month programs to be 

consistent with 6-month programs; all 

grant programs will be required to 

collect the NOMs interviews in 6 month 

intervals. CMHS will require the 

collection of Clinical Discharge 

interviews. 

In addition to questions asked of 

consumers as listed above, programs 

will be required to abstract information 

from consumer records regarding the 

services provided. The time to complete 

the revised instruments is estimated as 

shown below. These estimates are based 

on grantee reports of the amount of time 

required to complete the currently 

approved instruments accounting for 

the additional time required to complete 

the new questions, as based on an 

informal pilot. 

TRAC Reporting—Infrastructure 

Development Data Collection 

CMHS has identified categories and 

associated grant- or community-level 

indicators to assess performance of the 

Infrastructure Development grant 

programs to be reported by the grant 

Project Directors. The performance 

indicators are the focus of this proposed 

data collection. A web-based data entry 

system will be developed to capture this 

performance data for all CMHS-funded 

Infrastructure Development grants upon 

approval of the indicators. Not all 

categories or indicators will apply to 

every grant program; CMHS Program 

Directors will be responsible for 

determining whether a category (or an 

indicator within a category) applies to

each grant program, establishing targets 

at the grant level, and monitoring data 

submission. The following table 

summarizes the total number of 

indicators for each category that may or 

may not apply to each grant program:

development and reporting. 

TRAC Reporting—Prevention and 

Mental Health Promotion Data 

Collection 

CMHS has identified categories and 

associated grant- or community-level 

indicators to assess performance of the 

Prevention grant programs. The 

performance indicators are the focus of 

this proposed data collection. A webbased data entry system will be 

developed to capture this performance 

data for all CMHS-funded Prevention 

and Mental Health Promotion grants 

upon approval of the indicators. Not all 

categories or indicators will apply to 

every grant program; CMHS Program 

Directors will be responsible for 

determining whether a category (or an 

indicator within a category) applies to 

each grant program, establishing targets
