7. Data Gathering: Survey Methods Develop an inventory of the availability and accessibility of outpatient surgical services, imaging services, and facility and practitioner level primary care and behavioral health services, including: name and location of facility, type of facility, hours of operation, description of services provided, and total number of clients, treatments, patient visits, procedures, and/or scans performed in a calendar year.) | CT State Health Care Facilities and Services Plan Kick Off Meeting

Data Gathering: Survey Methods Conduct survey with a number of follow-ups and reminders Primarily online Follow-up by telephone, email, and mail when needed Use secondary sources (e.g., licensure files, directories) for data already collected or fill in gaps | CT State Health Care Facilities and Services Plan Kick Off Meeting
9. Key Questions for Consideration Who do we conduct the survey with? Acute care (ED, hospitals, cardiac services, and cancer treatment), outpatient surgery, imaging are all covered under CON requirement Primary care providers and behavioral health services are not required under plan, but come out of 2012 recommendations Recently there have been 3 provider surveys for different projects that yielded low response rates Behavioral health service directories exist, but no singular one has all practitioners With current project funding constraints and potentially low response rates, does it make sense to conduct survey with PCPs and behavioral health services given these challenges? | CT State Health Care Facilities and Services Plan Kick Off Meeting
10. Key Questions for Consideration What are your suggestions to maximize the response rate for the facility survey? What would encourage facilities to participate? What dissemination methods would work best?
