Topics State of the Field Delaware Paperwork Burden Review Decreasing Paperwork at Assessment Role of Computer Systems Benefits of Standardizing Data TRI science addiction
State of the Field Results of Initial Work from Recruiting Programs for the National Treatment Outcomes Monitoring System (NTOMS) Leadership Management Staffing Information TRI science addiction
NTOMS National Sample Expansion NY Information on the First 175 Sites Recruited TRI science addiction
The Treatment System Modality 1975 1990 2006 Residential 64% 39% 8% Outpatient 27% 59% 81% Methadone 10% 11% 9% TRI science addiction
Program “Turnover” • 8 % closed altogether • 7 % stopped providing SA Treatment 15% no longer providing SA Treatment • 29% of remaining programs had been taken over, usually by MH agencies Mc. Lellan, A. T, Carise, D, & Kleber, H. (2003). Can the national addiction treatment infrastructure support the public’s demand for quality care? Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment, 25 (117 -121) TRI science addiction
STAFF TURNOVER! • 54% of directors have been there Less Than 1 year • Counselor turnover 50% per year TRI science addiction
Intake/Admission Process: No Standard Intake/Assessment Procedures – ASI was most used assessment (35%) – Total admission process 2 -4 hours, or 0 – 15 – 20% Don’t Do Assessment – 30% of programs collected only the information that was required by regulating agencies TRI science addiction
Intake/Admission Process: No perceived value for assessment “Simply Paperwork” Not related to Treatment Plan Not related to services delivered TRI science addiction
Who are the Counselors? A Typical Counselors Day? 3 - 4 Hours – Group Counseling 2 - 3 Hours – Intakes 2 - 3 Hours – “Paperwork” TRI science addiction
Who are the Counselors? Addressing “Paperwork” An Example with the Delaware State Concurrent Recovery Monitoring Grant TRI science addiction
Delaware CRM Project 4 Phases: 1) Evaluation of current data collection in an effort to minimize paperwork burden 2) Collaboratively select CRM items 3) Pilot the collection and reporting of these items in 4 state adult OP SA programs 4) Expand to all 11 state adult OP SA programs and monitor progress TRI science addiction
Phase 1: Who are the Counselors? A Comprehensive Paperwork Burden Review TRI science addiction
Goal: Paperwork Burden Review • Diminish any unnecessary or burdensome paperwork • Develop a more efficient data collection system by consolidating and streamlining paperwork • Facilitate programs’ ability to participate more fully in expanded CRM effort in Phase 3 TRI science addiction
Methods • Conducted a systematic evaluation of multiple, competing data collection demands (state, grant, contract, managed care, credential agencies, etc. ) • Conducted site visits with clinical and admin staff from 11 OP Tx Programs in DE in July/Aug 2005 TRI science addiction
Methods During site visit, reviewed paperwork completed thru continuum of care: • Screening, • Intake & Assessment, • Treatment planning process, • During treatment, • Discharge or transfer, and • Follow-up TRI science addiction
Recommendations • Eliminate Michigan Alcohol Screening Test - MAST (7 -10 min) • Recommended 2 -item screener for South Oaks Gambling Screen (5 min) TRI science addiction
Recommendations • Eliminate Interpretative Summary (repeat of ASI Narrative) (30 min) • Eliminate Assessment Summary (repeat of ASI) (10 -15 min) TRI science addiction
Recommendations • Develop consistent Physical Exam Refusal forms for use by all sites • Eliminate ASI at Discharge (30 min) TRI science addiction
Recommendations • Eliminate ASAM at Intake for all OP Programs (lowest level of care), as well as 90 Day ASAM Updates & ASAM at Discharge (45 Min: 15 min @ admin, 90 days and discharge) TRI science addiction
Paperwork Burden Reduction • Eliminations reduced @ 2 hours per client across continuum of care • Approx 1, 500 clients/year enter tx at 11 OP programs • Total reduction: @ 3, 000 counselor hours per year TRI science addiction
Paperwork Burden at Assessment How do computer systems and standardizing data help? TRI science addiction
The Drug Evaluation Network System DENS 8 A national system collecting standardized, automated information (using ASI) 8 that is clinically important and policy relevant 8 on people entering addiction treatment and their treatment programs TRI science addiction
Purpose of DENS Standardize information at treatment intake Unified picture of people coming into treatment Purpose of DENS Quickly gather questions of current interest (Changes since 9/11) so this information isn’t always anecdotal Identify new trends - ex: Oxycontin use AND to inform policy TRI science addiction
Significance of DENS 4 The only “real-time” source of information on treatment programs and their patients. 4 Ability to collect varied additional timely and policy relevant patient and program information TRI science addiction
Standardizing Data Collection: The Blood Pressure Model TRI science addiction
An Example of Non. Standardized Reporting Blood Pressure Nurse 1 – It’s getting better (better than what? ? ) Nurse 2 – It’s much lower than before (too low? ? ) Nurse 3 – The patient is in denial (? ? ? ) Nurse 4 – The patient is non-compliant, lets not treat him until he’s really ready TRI science addiction
An Example of Standardized Reporting Blood Pressure Nurse 1 – It’s 120/80 Nurse 2 – It’s 116/78 Nurse 3 – It’s 122/82 Nurse 4 – The patient is non-compliant, lets not treat him until he’s really ready TRI science addiction
How Could Standardizing Data Help? Allows for better guidance in clinical/treatment decisions and tailored treatment. Allows tracking trends, enabling us to show that treatment works TRI science addiction
Standardized Assessment An example with the Addiction Severity Index TRI science addiction
The Addiction Severity Index • Developed by Tom Mc. Lellan & colleagues at University of Pennsylvania • Standardized, semi-structured, multi-focused screening and assessment tool TRI science addiction

DENS Software Automates collection of the ASI data Provides: • • • Automated error-checks A comprehensive intake assessment Room for additional comments Automated narrative summary Comprehensive treatment care plan TRI science addiction
DENS ASI Software • Software designed with input from clinicians • Assumed most users have little/no computer experience • Users report administration time shorter with software • Can enter comments for every ASI item TRI science addiction
