OMH plans to use the Telesage Outcome Measurement System (TOMS) to accomplish this.
The TOMS is scheduled for implementation as an objective of the Data Infrastructure Grant
(DIG). Data was not collected during Fiscal Year 2010. For Fiscal Year 2011, data will be
collected via TOMS, and baselines set thereafter.
Significance: Measuring the number of adults with serious mental illness who have decreasing exposure to
arrest/ incarceration is a significant factor contributing to improved community function.
Action Plan: See special issues. The Block Grant indicators are monitored through the Committee on
Programs and Services of the Louisiana Mental Health Planning Council. The Planning Council
Committee on Programs and Services is responsible for monitoring and evaluation of the mental
health system and for recommending service system improvements to the Council.
