DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
In compliance with section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 concerning opportunity for public comment on proposed
collections of information, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration (SAMHSA) will publish periodic summaries of
proposed projects. To request more information on the proposed projects
or to obtain a copy of the information collection plans, call the
SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276-0361.
Comments are invited on: (a) whether the proposed collections of
information are necessary for the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other
forms of information technology.
Proposed Project: Fast Track Generic Clearance for the Collection of
Qualitative Feedback on the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration (SAMHSA) Service Delivery
Executive Order 12862 directs federal agencies to provide service
to the public that matches or exceeds the best service available in the
private sector. As outlined in Memorandum M-11-26, the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) worked with agencies to create a Fast Track
process to allow agencies to obtain timely feedback on service delivery
while ensuring that the information collected is useful and minimally
burdensome for the public, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995.
This collection of information is necessary to enable SAMHSA to
garner customer and stakeholder feedback in an efficient, timely
manner, in accordance with our commitment to improving service
delivery. The information collected from our customers and stakeholders
will help ensure that users have an effective, efficient, and
satisfying experience with SAMHSA's programs. This feedback will
provide insights into customer or stakeholder perceptions, experiences
and expectations, provide an early warning of issues with service, or
focus attention on areas where communication, training or changes in
operations might improve delivery of products or services.
These collections will allow for ongoing, collaborative and
actionable communications between SAMHSA and its customers and
stakeholders. They also allow feedback to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management. Per Memorandum M-11-26, information
collection requests submitted under this Fast Track Generic will be
considered approved unless OMB notifies SAMHSA otherwise within five
days. Type of respondent; frequency (annual, quarterly, monthly, etc.);
and the affected public (individuals, public or private businesses,
state or local governments, etc.)
A variety of instruments and platforms will be used to collect
information from respondents. The annual burden hours requested
(87,500) are based on the number of collections we expect to conduct
over the requested period for this clearance.
The estimated annual hour burden is as follows:
