National Council



Jeff Capobianco, MA
            The National Council

• The National Council for Community Behavioral
 Healthcare (National Council) has won a
 competitive grant funded jointly by SAMHSA and
 HRSA to establish the National Training and
 Technical Assistance Center for Primary and
 Behavioral Healthcare Integration.

• The National Council is working closely with
 RAND and will provide technical assistance to
 grantees to insure they are able to successfully
 provide the data required for the evaluation.

     RAND’s Tasks



…back to Audrey Burnam, PhD
      Overview of RAND’s Tasks

 Conduct a national evaluation of the PBHCI
 program that answers 3 questions:
1.   Outcomes: Does integrating primary and
     behavioral health care lead to improvements in
     mental and physical health of persons with SMI
     and/or substance use disorders?
2.   Process: Is it possible to integrate the services
     provided by primary care providers and
     community-based behavioral health agencies?
3.   Models: Which models and/or respective model
     features of integrated primary and behavioral
     health care lead to better mental and physical
     health outcomes?

TRAC: CMHS Transformation
      Accountability


     Susie Lovejoy, MS
Transformation Accountability (TRAC)

• In response to the 1993 Government Performance
 and Results Act (GPRA) requirements CMHS
 developed the TRAC system.

• TRAC is the web-based system through which all
 SAMHSA CMHS grants report performance
 measurement data.

• Measures include: client level outcomes,
 infrastructure development indicators, measures
 of mental health promotion and prevention
 activities, and satisfaction with technical
 assistance services.
                                               Scharf Dec -10
                     TRAC (II)

•   All of you (grantees) have been trained on the
    Infrastructure, Prevention, & Promotion (IPP)
    portion of TRAC.

•   Grantees funded in Sept 2009 (cohort I) have
    been trained on the client-level outcomes
    measures for people receiving direct services
    through the grant.

•   Grantees funded in 2010 (cohorts II and III) will
    be trained in February to collect and enter the
    remaining data into TRAC


                                                        Scharf Dec -10
                         TRAC (III)

•       Grantees must collect and report data on
        behavioral health outcomes for each person
        receiving services from the grant (NOMS).

•       Grantee staff interview consumers and enter
        data into TRAC at:
    –     Entry into integrated care
    –     Every 6 mos while enrolled
    –     At discharge from the program

                    TRAC (IV)

• For PBHCI, grantees must also log physical
 healthcare indicators in TRAC

• Required indicators: Height, weight, BP, glucose or
 A1C, cholesterol, triglycerides

• Optional indicators: Waist circumference, Breath
 CO (for smoking status)

                             TRAC (V)

• Intake, 6 months,                   • Intake, annually,
 discharge:                              discharge:
   – Height                                – Glucose or A1C
   – Weight                                – Triglycerides
   – Blood pressure                        – Cholesterol
   – Waist                                 – Successful 8h fast*
     circumference*
   – Breath CO*

*Recommended
Note: 6 month indicators are collected quarterly but entered bi-annually

                                                                           Scharf Dec -10
                     TRAC (IV)

•   TRAC data can be downloaded
    –   This can help you avoid double-entry

•   Collect and enter the physical healthcare
    data in the same time windows as you
    collect and enter the TRAC client-level
    interviews.

•   This TRAC change will be in place ~Feb
    2011

PBHCI Secure
SharePoint Site

 Regan Main, BA
    PBHCI Secure SharePoint Site

• SharePoint is the primary method of
 transmitting quarterly reports and
 clinical registry data to SAMHSA and
 RAND

               SharePoint (II)

• Use the SharePoint site because it is secure
  – Meets HIPAA data protection requirements

• Each grant program has a password-
 protected folder
  – Uploading data is easy!

                                  Glossary
• Assessment: Actions taken following a positive screen to provide a more
  comprehensive or in-depth picture of an individual patient’s specific physical
  health condition(s) and to determine the best service plan to address them

• Early intervention: Interventions that are appropriate for, and specifically target,
  people displaying the early signs and symptoms of a physical health condition.

• Prevention: Interventions that occur before the initial onset of a physical health
  condition to prevent the development of that condition.

• Qualitative data collection methods: Interviews, focus groups, etc.
• Screening: Refers to a preliminary procedure, such as a test or examination (e.g.,
  blood pressure for hypertension, cholesterol for coronary artery disease), to
  detect the most characteristic sign(s) of a physical health condition that may
  require urgent attention or further investigation.

• Wellness-related education and programming activities: Activities that promote
  wellness in mind, body, and spirit. They may include educational activities (e.g.,
  nutrition education, physical activity education), physical activities (e.g., yoga
  classes, walking groups), and psychosocial activities (e.g., peer support
  programs, health-focused social functions).

Clinical Registries



Deborah Scharf, PhD
                Clinical Registries

• Two purposes:
   1. Improve clinical care
   2. Record consumer-level clinical interactions


• Data system for consumers with a specific type of
   disease diagnosed and treated at a practice*
   –   Allows care team members to proactively manage consumers
       with chronic diseases*


• Grantees must maintain a clinical registry

            Benefits of a Registry*

• Enable the provider to ensure that all their patients
 are getting proper care

• Track progress of high-risk patients
• Identify the need for follow-up services
• Increase quality of care and improve patient
 outcomes

• Coordinate care and identify gaps
• Incorporate consensus guidelines for disease
 management

Evaluation Uses of a Clinical Registry


• Facilitate data collection
  – Registries can and should include all key
    client-level data elements


• Standardize client-level data collection
  – Data collection can be aligned with flow of
    integrated clinical care

  • IMPORTANT!
     – All data fields to be extracted from clinical
       registries should be whole numbers
        • i.e., 1, 2, 3, … 99
     – Even lists of EBPs should be coded as whole
       numbers
     – RAND will provide you with a list of EBPs and
       wellness activities associated codes
        • Example EBP: CBT = 1; MI = 2
        • Example wellness activity: Diabetes
          education = 1; Smoking cessation = 2

 data previously reported in quarterly reports

• Data are now collected at the patient-level
   – Not in aggregate (i.e., not at the program-level)

If You Already Have a Clinical Registry…

• Make sure it contains all necessary fields
   – Review these materials, pg 12 of your RFA, and talk to
     your contact at the Technical Assistance Center

• Establish a plan for:
   – Extracting all necessary fields
   – Making all data fields numeric, whole numbers, and
     consistent with PBHCI requirements



• Your registry will likely contain data that we do not
 collect for the evaluation

If You Do Not Have a Clinical Registry…

• Look carefully at the data to be extracted
 from PBHCI registries



• Work with the Technical Assistance Center
 to select a registry tool that will meet your
 clinical and research needs

When Choosing a Registry, Consider…

• To what extent will using the registry
 improve the quality of your program’s
 integrated care?

• To what extent is the organization of the
 registry aligned with the flow of integrated
 care at your site?

• To what extent will the registry help you
 automate your data collection and
 reporting?
