Questions: Q1: Service Element language for Problem Gambling (SE 80) indicates that annual reports are to be submitted electronically to amhcontract.administrator@state.or.us, however, email from Roxann requested they be submitted to her directly. Which way is correct?A1: It is okay to utilize the amhcontract.administrator@state.or.us to submit

reports. Reports are then forwarded directly to state PGS staff. Looking at SE language for next biennium, to streamline process. No worries if you submitted directly or utilized the amh contract administrator, annual reports can be submitted either way. Apologies for any confusion.Q2: 2016 Student Wellness Data is already posted on line, however no previous year comparison data listed for problem gambling. Also are those reports final?A2: Roxann checked with Healthy Analytics after the call and the data that is in the reports is final. Comparison data has not been gathered for problem gambling in the past. In general the data in the comparison section of the report has been for DFC funded projects. Q3: Will SWS data be cross tabulated by risk factors as well?A3: Yes, a request will be submitted to Health Analytics to start

that work.
