The overall change in burden
from the previously approved package is a decrease of 1,883 total
annual burden hours, from 3,218 hours to 1,434 hours. This is
because there has been a reduction in the number of CMHCs billing
Medicare (from 52 CMHCs in 2015 to 36 CMHCs in 2021), as well as a
decrease of clients receiving services at a CMHC (from 5,202
clients in 2015 to 1,475 clients in 2021).
