The Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) assessment is used to evaluate the performance of HHSC substance use programs. The programs that use this assessment include, but are not limited to, the programs which receive funding originating from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT)
An assessment, more comprehensive than a screening, is a health professional’s review of an individual. The review consists of an evaluation of a variety of domains including current and past functioning in the areas of Demographics, Planned Services, Living Conditions, Education Employment and Income, Legal, Mental and Physical Health, Social Connectedness, Follow Up Status, Discharge Status and Services Received for and Treatment/Recovery Providers.
The assessment is the foundation for collaboration with the client on the development of the plan for treatment and recovery.
GPRA Assessments are in addition to existing assessments and data collection tools within CMBHS system.
Assessments must be conducted in person unless your organization has been instructed otherwise.
Your business entity must have a contract (or other approved written agreement) with HHSC to perform GPRA Assessments and document them in CMBHS.
The CMBHS user must be assigned a role that permits documentation of GPRA Assessments. You must have the proper credentials and they must be accurately entered into your CMBHS account to be assigned those roles. Click here for a summary of Roles in CMBHS and each role's Read-Only or Read/Write Page Rights.
Some CMBHS roles permit a user to document assessments, but they cannot put the assessment in Closed Complete status. Because of their limited credentials, they may only place the assessment in Ready for Review status. It must then be signed off by a clinician who can put the assessment in Closed Complete status.
Before you attempt to document an Assessment in CMBHS, make sure you are fully aware of how to use the Document Status and Save functions. Knowing how to use these functions will reduce the likelihood of losing information or making errors that cannot be corrected. For more information about Document Status, Click here.
Verify that you have the correct client record by checking the client’s name and at least one other identifier before you begin to document.
To begin a GPRA assessment, your agency and the client must meet the following pre-conditions:
Clients in treatment services must have the following three documents in place:
3. The client must have an Initial SUD Assessment in closed complete status.
Pre-Conditions for Recovery Support Services/ Case Management Clients:

CMBHS sends reminder messages to remind staff when each GPRA Assessment type is due. The messages will only be sent to the clinician/recovery coach/case manager assigned to the client. Reminder messages will not display in your clinician/recovery coach/case manager workspace for clients who are unassigned. To see if the client needs an assessment completed you may view reminders in the Client Workspace or use the “GPRA – Clients Due for Assessment” report. More details click here.
