HRSA Evaluation of the Maternal and Child Health Bureau Pediatric Mental Health Care Access and Screening and Treatment for Maternal Depression and Related Behavioral Disorders Programs Project


Pediatric Mental Health Care Access Program

Health Care Provider Survey


Funding for data collection supported by the

Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB)

Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)

U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

HRSA funded [insert name of state] to implement a Pediatric Mental Health Care Access (PMHCA) program, [insert program name]. HRSA also funded JBS International, Inc. (JBS) to conduct an evaluation of the MCHB PMHCA program (hereafter referred to as the HRSA MCHB evaluation). JBS is an independent evaluator of the program and is not part of HRSA or any other federal agency.

Survey Purpose: As part of the HRSA MCHB evaluation, we are conducting a survey of pediatric health care providers who are participating in [insert name of state]’s HRSA PMHCA program. The survey is designed to collect information on your experiences with the PMHCA program (e.g., assessing and treating behavioral health conditions, accessing behavioral health care services for your patients, capacity to address behavioral health conditions) and assist HRSA in future program implementation.

Survey Instructions: This online survey should take less than ten (10) minutes for you to complete. Please answer based on your current practice and understanding, unless otherwise indicated. There are no right or wrong answers to the survey questions. Please note that your responses will remain private and are voluntary. Survey results will be reported to HRSA in the aggregate, and no identifying information will appear in the evaluation reports without your prior approval. No identifiable data will be provided to HRSA.

About Your State’s Program and Helpful Terminology: Each state’s PMHCA program includes creating a Pediatric Mental Health Care Team; enrolling pediatric health care providers, such as yourself into the program; and providing training on how to consult with the Pediatric Mental Health Care Team in your state and/or to provide behavioral health care in your practice. The questions that follow ask about your experiences obtaining training, clinical behavioral health consultation, referral, and community linkage information from your state’s PMHCA program and about your current practices for addressing behavioral health conditions in your pediatric patients.

Please create a Unique Identifier for your survey to maintain the privacy of your responses and allow us to match your future survey responses.

How to create your Unique Identifier: Use the first two letters of your first name, the first two letters of your last name, and the month of your birthday. For example, for John Smith, born in May, the Unique Identifier would be JOSM05.

HRSA Evaluation of the Maternal and Child Health Bureau Pediatric Mental Health Care Access and Screening and Treatment for Maternal Depression and Related Behavioral Disorders Programs Project

Pediatric Mental Health Care Access Program

Practice-Level Survey


Funding for data collection supported by the

Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB)

Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)

U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

HRSA funded [insert name of state] to implement a Pediatric Mental Health Care Access (PMHCA) program, [insert program name]. HRSA also funded JBS International, Inc. (JBS) to conduct an evaluation of the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) PMHCA program (hereafter referred to as the HRSA MCHB evaluation). JBS is an independent evaluator of the program and is not part of HRSA or any other federal agency.

Survey Purpose: As part of the HRSA MCHB evaluation, we are conducting a survey of practices that have providers who are participating in [insert name of state]’s HRSA PMHCA program. The survey is designed to collect information on your practice’s experiences with the PMHCA program (e.g., assessing and treating behavioral health conditions, accessing behavioral health care services for your practice’s patients, and capacity to address behavioral health conditions) and assist HRSA in future program implementation.

Survey Instructions: This online survey should take less than fifteen (15) minutes for you to complete. Please answer based on your current practice and understanding, unless otherwise indicated. There are no right or wrong answers to the survey questions. Please note that your responses will remain private and are voluntary. Survey results will be reported to HRSA in the aggregate, and no identifying information will appear in the evaluation reports without your prior approval. No identifiable data will be provided to HRSA.


About Your State’s Program and Helpful Terminology: Each state’s PMHCA program includes creating a Pediatric Mental Health Care Team; enrolling pediatric health care providers and practices into the program; and providing training on how to consult with the Pediatric Mental Health Care Team in your state and/or to provide behavioral health care in your practice. For the purposes of this survey, behavioral health encompasses both mental health and associated disorders as well as substance use disorders, and staff refers to all staff in your practice – not just physicians. In addition, health care provider refers to primary care providers, not behavioral health providers.

Please create a Unique Identifier for your survey to maintain the privacy of your responses and allow us to match your future survey responses.

How to create your practice’s Unique Identifier: Use your state abbreviation, last three digits of your practice’s ZIP code, and first two letters of your practice name. For example, for the Good Health practice located in Ohio in the ZIP code 44101, the Unique Identifier would be OH101GO.

Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)

U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

HRSA funded [insert name of state] to implement a Screening and Treatment for Maternal Depression and Related Behavioral Disorders (MDRBD) program, [insert program name]. HRSA also funded JBS International, Inc. (JBS) to conduct an evaluation of the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) MDRBD program (hereafter referred to as the HRSA MCHB evaluation). JBS is an independent evaluator of the program and is not part of HRSA or any other federal agency.

Survey Purpose: As part of the HRSA MCHB evaluation, we are conducting a survey of practices that have providers who are participating in [insert name of state]’s HRSA MDRBD program. The survey is designed to collect information on your practice’s experiences with the MDRBD program (e.g., assessing and treating behavioral health conditions, accessing behavioral health care services for your practice’s patients, and capacity to address behavioral health conditions) and assist HRSA in future program implementation.

Survey Instructions: This online survey should take less than fifteen (15) minutes for you to complete. Please answer based on your current practice and understanding, unless otherwise indicated. There are no right or wrong answers to the survey questions. Please note that your responses will remain private and are voluntary. Survey results will be reported to HRSA in the aggregate and no identifying information will appear in the evaluation reports without your prior approval. No identifiable data will be provided to HRSA.

About Your State’s Program and Helpful Terminology: Each state’s MDRBD program includes creating a clinical behavioral health consultation service; enrolling health care providers and practices into the program; and providing training on how to consult with the clinical behavioral health consultation service in your state and/or to provide behavioral health care in your practice. For the purposes of this survey, behavioral health encompasses both mental health and associated disorders as well as substance use disorders and staff refers to all staff in your practice – not just physicians. In addition, health care provider refers to primary care providers, not behavioral health providers.

Please create a Unique Identifier for your survey to maintain the privacy of your responses and allow us to match your future survey responses.

How to create your practice’s Unique Identifier: Use your state abbreviation, last three digits of your practice’s ZIP code, and first two letters of your practice name. For example, for the Good Health practice located in Ohio in the ZIP code 44101, the Unique Identifier would be OH101GO.

Year








Instructions to Interviewers

The purpose of this guide is to provide an overview of the information that will be gathered through interviews with Project Directors or Principal Investigators involved with the PMHCA program. JBS will work with the awardee to determine which staff person should participate in the SSI. For example, in some states, the Project Director may be in an administrative role, rather than involved in the day-to-day operations and program implementation; in those cases, we will collect data from the Principal Investigator (or individual who fills that role).

Members of the HRSA MCHB evaluation team will conduct and record the interview via WebEx, and a note taker will take detailed notes. Interviews will be transcribed to facilitate qualitative content analysis. The interview will last approximately 60 minutes.

The goals of program implementation interviews conducted as part of the HRSA MCHB evaluation include:

(1) Documentation of the development and changes in PMHCA program implementation

(2) Improved understanding of the degree to which community linkages, program outreach, and sustainability plans have developed through the course of the program’s operations



Program Implementation Interview Introduction to Interviewee (2.5 minutes)

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) funded [insert name of state] to implement a Pediatric Mental Health Care Access (PMHCA) program. HRSA also funded JBS International, Inc. (JBS) to conduct an evaluation of the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) PMHCA program (hereafter referred to as the HRSA MCHB evaluation). JBS is an independent evaluator of the program and is not part of HRSA or any other federal agency. (Introduce team members, give brief description of qualifications, and describe functions during the interview).

As part of the HRSA MCHB evaluation, we are conducting semi-structured interviews with awardees, including [awardee name], to learn more about the implementation of [insert name of state]’s HRSA PMHCA program. During the interview, we will discuss the implementation of your PMHCA program – including any successes and challenges – and how your PMHCA program has developed over the course of the cooperative agreement funding. We would also like to gain insight into the degree to which community linkages, program outreach, and sustainability plans have developed through the course of your program’s operations. We have prepared some topic areas and questions on which we would like your comments, and we greatly value the information you can provide about your PMHCA program. We expect this will take about 60 minutes.

Your name and title will not appear in reports to HRSA, unless we specifically ask for your approval. Although we are taking detailed notes, we would also like to audio record the interview in case we need to verify our notes with the interview dialogue. Are you comfortable with us recording the interview?

Do you have any questions about what I have explained? If not, let’s get started.

Instructions to Interviewers

The purpose of this guide is to provide an overview of the information that will be gathered through interviews with Project Directors or Principal Investigators involved with the MDRBD program. JBS will work with the awardee to determine which staff person should participate in the SSI. For example, in some states, the Project Director may be in an administrative role, rather than involved in the day-to-day operations and program implementation; in those cases, we will collect data from the Principal Investigator (or individual who fills that role).

Members of the HRSA MCHB evaluation team will conduct and record the interview via WebEx, and a note taker will take detailed notes. Interviews will be transcribed to facilitate qualitative content analysis. The interview will last approximately 60 minutes.

The goals of program implementation interviews conducted as part of the HRSA MCHB evaluation include:

(1) Documentation of the development and changes in MDRBD program implementation

(2) Improved understanding of the degree to which community linkages, program outreach, and sustainability plans have developed through the course of the program’s operations



Program Implementation Interview Introduction to Interviewee (2.5 minutes)

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) funded [insert name of state] to implement a Screening and Treatment for Maternal Depression and Related Behavioral Disorders (MDRBD) program. HRSA also funded JBS International, Inc. (JBS) to conduct an evaluation of the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) MDRBD program (hereafter referred to as the HRSA MCHB evaluation). JBS is an independent evaluator of the program and is not part of HRSA or any other federal agency. (Introduce team members, give brief description of qualifications, and describe functions during the interview).

As part of the HRSA MCHB evaluation, we are conducting semi-structured interviews with awardees, including [awardee name], to learn more about the implementation of [insert name of state]’s HRSA MDRBD program. During the interview, we will discuss the implementation of your MDRBD program – including any successes and challenges – and how your MDRBD program has developed over the course of the cooperative agreement funding. We would also like to gain insight into the degree to which community linkages, program outreach, and sustainability plans have developed through the course of your program’s operations. We have prepared some topic areas and questions on which we would like your comments, and we greatly value the information you can provide about your MDRBD program. We expect this will take about 60 minutes.

Your name and title will not appear in reports to HRSA, unless we specifically ask for your approval. Although we are taking detailed notes, we would also like to audio record the interview in case we need to verify our notes with the interview dialogue. Are you comfortable with us recording the interview?

Do you have any questions about what I have explained? If not, let’s get started.
