Behavioral Health Information Technologies Survey
Many items on the questionnaire were drawn from or adapted from other sources. These sources are:
HIT Adoption and Readiness for Meaningful Use in Community Behavioral Health, 2012 conducted by the National Council for Behavioral Healthcare (NCBH)
National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services, 2013 sponsored by SAMHSA (N-SSATS)
National Mental Health Services Survey, 2014 sponsored by SAMHSA (N-MHSS)
Assessing Adoption of Effective Health Information Technology Questionnaire, 2005 conducted by Medical Group Management Association (MGMA) Center for Research
Community Chronic Care Network (CCCN): Technical Readiness, date unknown conducted by Pajaro Valley Community Health, Watsonville CA
Community Clinics Initiative Information Management Assessment, 2005 conducted by the Community Clinics Initiatives, San Francisco, CA (CCI)
HIMSS Analytics Mobile Technology Survey, 2013 conducted by the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMMS)
Telehealth in State Substance Use Disorder (SUD), 2009, Conducted by the National Association of State Alcohol and Drug Abuse Directors (NASADAD)
This cross-referencing to sources for individual items will be removed from the final version of the survey administered to SAMHSA grantees.
The survey will be administered as a web-based instrument. Skip logic patterns, which are presented here, will be automated in the web implementation. The layout of individual questions will also differ on the web version.
Purpose
The survey collects data on the current state of adoption of health information technologies by behavioral health providers. The responses will be collected from program managers, via the program directors of eight grant programs administered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
Design
The survey dynamically updates questions based on the previous response. If the available response options don’t completely describe grant activities, please use your best judgment. There is a comment box at the end of each section where you may provide additional information.
Navigation
The survey cannot be saved for completion at a later time! Plan to complete the survey in one sitting. It takes an average of 22 minutes to complete, depending on responses. Once the required contact information fields are completed, use the "Next" and "Previous" buttons on the bottom of the screen to navigate to any section of the survey.
Response
The “Submit” button appears toward the bottom of the final page of the survey. Once you submit the survey by clicking this button, you will be routed to a “Thank You” page. Each screen includes a button marked "Exit this survey." Clicking this button also submits your answers. If you exit the survey by mistake, please contact the Help Desk for support at BHITSHelp@thenationalcouncil.org, or call 202-684-7457.
Key Terms
Definitions for key terms are included at the beginning of each Section. These phrases or keywords also appear as blue text in the questions. Hover your cursor over the blue text to view the pop-up definition. Contact the Help Desk (see below) for a list of key terms and definitions.
Participation
is Voluntary
You can choose whether or not to take the
survey. You can skip any questions or stop without finishing the
survey. Whether or not you complete the survey will not affect any
services you receive from SAMHSA. Only aggregate data will appear in
the survey report. Data collected are available to SAMHSA at the
individual and grant program levels.
