Data Collection & Performance Measurement Sample Clauses

Data Collection & Performance Measurement. Government Performance and Results (GPRA) Requirements: All SAMHSA recipients are required to collect and report certain data so that SAMHSA can meet its obligations under the Government Performance and Results (GPRA) Modernization Act of 2010. This information will be gathered using SAMHSA’s Performance Accountability and Reporting System (SPARS); access will be provided upon award. Data will be collected via face-to-face interview using this tool at three data collection points: intake to services, six months post intake, and at discharge. Grantee is required to complete a GPRA interview on all clients in their specified unduplicated target number and are also expected to achieve a six-month follow-up rate of 80 percent. Grantee should enter their data within 1 day—but no later than 7 days—after the GPRA interview is conducted. This guidance applies to Grantee who manually enter their data and batch upload their data. Grantee will be required to report a series of data elements that will enable SAMHSA to determine the impact of the program on opioid use, and opioid-related morbidity and mortality. Grantees are required to report client-level data on elements including but not limited to: demographic characteristics, substance use, diagnosis(es) services received, types of MOUD received; length of stay in treatment; employment status, criminal justice involvement, and housing. Additional data elements will also be required and will be provided upon award. SOR program outcomes have a significant influence on the determination of continued funding and so participation in the evaluation process is mandatory. Grantees are expected to comply with GPRA data collection for all clients receiving ongoing treatment and recovery services funded by the grant. To remain in compliance with the grant, there will be a required completion rate of 100% at initial collection, 100% at discharge, and 80% at the six-month follow up point. Participants may receive a $30 gift card incentive for completing the six-month follow-up interview.
Data Collection & Performance Measurement. Breakthrough will contract with the University of Central Florida, Center for Behavioral Research and Training (UCF) to oversee the evaluation effort for this project. The goal of evaluation is to produce timely, relevant, credible and objective findings and conclusions on program performance, based on valid and reliable data collection and analysis. The evaluation of the project will incorporate a Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) process designed to be an ongoing management and learning tool to improve the effectiveness of the project and a means of demonstrating the achievement of results. A component of this process will be periodic review of SAMHSA data and the Evaluation Team (comprised of evaluators from UCF, the Project Director, the Lead Family Coordinator, the Clinical Director and families) will formally present findings to the YMHC quarterly, but will point out critical issues as soon as they are identified. Areas that reflect continued variances from targets will be reviewed by the Evaluation Team to assess the root cause and develop and implement corrective action plans to close identified performance gaps. Subsequently, a reassessment will be conducted to confirm that the action plan closed the performance gap. If the action plan was successful, a procedure will be instituted to codify the process, in order to maintain the gain. If the planned outcomes were not achieved, the Evaluation Team will review and implement
Data Collection & Performance Measurement. All SAMHSA grantees are required to (please refer to RFA Section I-2.4 Data Collection and Performance Measurement): • Collect and report certain data through the Government Performance and Results Modernization Act of 2010 (GPRA). • Provide documentation of the ability to collect and report the required data. • Grantees may use up to 15% (i.e., $180,000) of the total grant award for infrastructure development/improvements at the state level; up to 20% (i.e., $36,000) of this amount may be used for data collection and performance measurement, and performance assessment (see Sections I-2.4 and 2.5). • Each local governmental behavioral health entity may use up to 10% of their funds for data collection and performance measurement, and performance assessment.
