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
Scharf Dec -10
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)
Scharf Dec -10
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

Regan Main, BA
PBHCI Secure SharePoint Site
• SharePoint is the primary method of
transmitting quarterly reports and
clinical registry data to SAMHSA and
RAND
Scharf Dec -10
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
*Iowa Dept of Public Health, 2010
Scharf Dec -10
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
Scharf Dec -10
*Iowa Dept of Public Health, 2010
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
Scharf Dec -10
Attempt To Balance Simplicity & Complexity
for Serving Multiple Purposes
Overly Simplistic “Reasonable” Middle Ground Overly Complex
• Meets minimal • Facilitates sites’ • Exceeds sites’ data
reporting expectations efforts to provide high- collection resources/
• Provides baseline quality clinical care capacities
data w/out • Assists sites in • Results in incomplete
longitudinal, clinically meeting SAMHSA’s and/or unreliable data
relevant follow-up reporting requirements collection across sites
information • Supports meaningful
evaluation

– Care managers
– Primary care providers (MDs, LPNs, PAs)
– Psychiatrists or psychiatric nurses
– Counselors (LSW, psychologists, substance
abuse counselors, others)
– Peer specialists
– Other specialists (dentist, nutritionist, others)
– Wellness programs
Scharf Dec -10
Clinical Registry Items Extracted for the Evaluation
(III)
• 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
Scharf Dec -10
Registry: For Cohort I
• Clinical registry data is taking the place of numeric
data previously reported in quarterly reports
• Data are now collected at the patient-level
– Not in aggregate (i.e., not at the program-level)
Scharf Dec -10
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
Scharf Dec -10
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
Scharf Dec -10
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?
