Abstract: These regulations specify requirements for opioid treatment programs, which must apply for certification and adhere to recordkeeping, disclosure and reporting specifications. In addition, entities that wish to become accreditation bodies under the regulations must apply to and obtain approval from SAMHSA. Such bodies must develop and submit accreditation elements for SAMHSA acceptance. Upon designation as an accreditation body, entities must keep certain records of accreditation surveys and submit them to SAMHSA.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: Currently there are 2,718 total approved burden hours. The program is requesting 2,263.15. The decrease of 454 hours is due to the improvements and enhancements to the web-based online reporting system for forms SMA-162 and SMA-168. The forms available online include a unique online feature for both the SMA-162 and SMA-168 that pre-populates certain information within the form. This in turn reduces the program's time spent filling out the forms as well as the staff time spent on processing it. Importantly, this modest increase in the number of regulated entities responding has been offset by the online function. Also with the approval of the new regulation on buprenorphine there have been fewer patient exceptions necessary therefore reducing burden hours. The response number and total hours requested for accreditation organizations has increased slightly. This is due to the emphasis on patient (and other) complaint monitoring and accreditation organization follows up. The estimated burden in the tables accompanying this submission has been adjusted accordingly and indicates a decrease in the estimated information collection burden since the last submission. The net result of these re-estimations is an adjustment decrease of 454 hours from the previously approved level of 2,718 hours.
