Information Collection Request Title: Evaluation of the Maternal
and Child Health Bureau Pediatric Mental Health Care Access Program and
the Screening and Treatment for Maternal Depression and Related
Behavioral Disorders Program, OMB No. 0906-XXXX--New.
Abstract: This notice describes information collection requests for
two of HRSA's Maternal and Child Health Bureau programs: the Pediatric
Mental Health Care Access (PMHCA) Program and the Screening and
Treatment for Maternal Depression and Related Behavioral Disorders
(MDRBD) Program. Both of these programs aim to increase identification
of behavioral health conditions by providing support for screening of
specified populations (e.g., children, adolescents, young adults, and
pregnant and postpartum women, especially those living in rural,
isolated, and/or underserved areas); providing clinical behavioral
health consultation, care coordination support (i.e., communication/
collaboration, accessing resources, referral services), and training to
health professionals (HPs); \1\ and increasing access to clinical
interventions, including by telehealth.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ HPs may include pediatricians, family physicians, physician
assistants, advanced practice nurses/nurse practitioners, licensed
practical nurses, registered nurses, counselors, social workers,
medical assistants, and patient care navigators.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Information will be collected from recipients of awards that were
issued in 2018 (PMHCA and MDRBD), 2019 (PMHCA), and 2021 (PMHCA). The
2018, 2019, and 2021 PMHCA programs are authorized by 42 U.S.C. Sec.
254c-19 (Sec. 330M of the Public Health Service Act), using Section
2712 of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Pub. L. 117-2) for 2021
awardees. The 2018 MDRBD program is authorized by 42 U.S.C. 247b-13a
(Sec. 317L-1 of the Public Health Service Act). To evaluate progress
made toward the programs' goals, this data collection will use eight
instruments: the HP Survey, Practice-Level Survey, Program
Implementation Survey, Program Implementation Semi-Structured Interview
(SSI), Champion SSI, Champion Focus Group Discussion (FGD), Community
Resources SSI, and Care Coordinator SSI.
Need and Proposed Use of the Information: This information is
needed by HRSA to evaluate the PMHCA and MDRBD programs and guide
future policy decisions regarding increasing HPs' capacity to address
patients' behavioral health and access to behavioral health services.
Specifically, data collected for the evaluation will be used to study
the efforts of awardee programs to achieve key awardee outcomes (e.g.,
increase in access to behavioral health services; health professionals
trained; available community-based resources, including counselors or
family service providers) and to measure whether and to what extent
awardee programs are associated with changes in these outcomes. The
evaluation will also examine changes over time, within a state,
political subdivision of a state, Indian tribe, or tribal organization,
and/or across the PMHCA and MDRBD programs, with regard to (1) enrolled
health professionals/practices related to screening, referral, and care
coordination support for behavioral health conditions; (2) provision of
behavioral health services for mental illness and substance use in
primary care settings; (3) use of consultative services; and (4)
provision of access to behavioral health services for mental illness
and substance use.
Likely Respondents: Likely respondents include:
<bullet> HP Surveys (2021 PMHCA only): Pediatricians, family
physicians, physician assistants, advanced practice nurses/nurse
practitioners, licensed practical nurses, registered nurses,
counselors, social workers, medical assistants, and patient care
navigators.
<bullet> Practice-Level Surveys (2021 PMHCA only): Practice
managers (e.g., office managers, office leadership, and nurse
champions).
<bullet> Program Implementation Survey and SSI (2021 PMHCA only):
2021 PMHCA cooperative agreement-funded Project Directors/Principal
Investigators.
<bullet> Champion SSI or FGD (all awardees): PMHCA and MDRBD
program champions, who may include HPs, community and social service
specialists, and others.
<bullet> Community Resources SSI (all awardees): PMHCA and MDRBD
program-level community resource partner representatives, who may
include counselors, social workers, other community and social service
specialists, other HPs/support workers (e.g., patient care navigators,
medical assistants), and practice/organization managers.
<bullet> Care Coordinator SSI (all awardees): PMHCA and MDRBD
program-level care coordinators.
Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the
information requested. This includes the time needed to review
instructions; to develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and
systems for the purpose of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and
providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and
review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise
disclose the information. The total annual burden hours estimated for
this ICR are summarized in the table below.

HRSA specifically requests comments on (1) the necessity and
utility of the proposed information collection for the proper
performance of the agency's functions, (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden, (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information to be collected, and (4) the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology to
minimize the information collection burden.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The HP, practice-level, and program implementation surveys
will be administered with enrolled/participating HPs, office
managers/leadership of enrolled/participating practices, and project
directors/principal investigators of the 2021 PMHCA cooperative-
agreement funded programs three times during the project period
(2023, 2024, and 2025) for a total of up to three responses per
respondent. The 2021 PMHCA Program Implementation SSIs and the
Champion SSIs and FGDs will be administered to 2021 PMHCA
cooperative agreement-funded project directors/principal
investigator and program champions once at the end of the data
collection period. The 2021 PMHCA Care Coordinator SSI will be
administered twice, once at the beginning of the data collection
period and once at the end of the data collection period. The number
of responses per respondent varies for the Care Coordinator SSI
between the 2018 and 2019 PMHCA and 2018 MDRBD cooperative-agreement
funded programs and the 2021 PMHCA cooperative-agreement funded
program because the 2018 and 2019 cooperative-agreement programs
will end in 2023 whereas the 2021 PMHCA cooperative agreement-funded
programs will end in 2026.
\3\ The Community Resources SSI will be a case study with (1) up
to 5 awardees who have identified up to 5 formal (i.e., there is a
formal agreement, Memorandum of Understanding (MOU); Memorandum of
Agreement (MOA); letter of support) community partnerships and (2)
up to 5 awardees who have identified up to 5 informal (i.e., there
is no formal agreement, MOU; MOA; letter of support) community
partnership; there will be up to 25 respondents for each group
(i.e., formal, informal) for a total N=50. The Community Resource
SSIs will be administered for the 2018 and 2019 PMHCA and 2018 MDRBD
cooperative-agreement funded programs at the end of the data
collection period in Spring 2023 and for 2021 PMHCA cooperative
agreement-funded program at the end of the data collection period in
Fall 2025.
