SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title: Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program
Client-Level Data Reporting System, OMB No. 0906-0039--Revision.
Abstract: The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP), authorized under
Title XXVI of the Public Health Service Act, is administered by the
HIV/AIDS Bureau within HRSA. HRSA awards funding to recipients in areas
of the greatest need to respond effectively to the HIV epidemic, with
an emphasis on providing life-saving and life-extending medical care,
treatment, and support services for people with HIV in the United
States.
The RWHAP reporting requirements include the annual submission of
client-level data in the RWHAP Services Report (RSR). The RSR is
designed to collect information from grant recipients and their
subawarded service providers, funded under Parts A, B, C, and D of the
RWHAP statute.
HRSA is requesting a revision of the current RSR with two proposed
updates:
Health Coverage
<bullet> HRSA proposes adding Medicare Advantage as a response
option to the client's healthcare coverage data element.
Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 Waiver Requirement
Current Questions
<bullet> Within your organization/agency, identify the number of
physicians, nurse practitioners, or physician assistants who obtained a
Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 waiver to treat opioid use
disorder with medication assisted treatment, (e.g., buprenorphine,
naltrexone) specifically approved by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration.
<bullet> How many of the above physicians, nurse practitioners, or
physician assistants prescribed medication assisted treatment (e.g.,
buprenorphine, naltrexone) for opioid use disorders in the reporting
period?
Proposed Change to Question in 2024 RSR Form
<bullet> How many physicians, nurse practitioners, or physician
assistants in your organization prescribed medications for opioid use
disorder (e.g., buprenorphine, naltrexone) for opioid use disorders
during the reporting period?
A 60-day notice published in the Federal Register on April 24,
2024, vol. 89, No. 79; pp. 30384-85. There were no public comments.
Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The RWHAP statute
specifies HRSA's responsibilities in administering grant funds,
allocating funding, assessing HIV care outcomes (e.g., viral
suppression), and serving priority populations. The RSR collects data
on the characteristics of RWHAP-funded recipients, their contracted
service providers, and the patients or clients served. The RSR system
consists of two primary components (the Recipient Report and the
Provider Report) and a data file containing de-identified client-level
data elements. Data are submitted annually. The RWHAP statute specifies
the importance of recipient accountability. The RSR is used to ensure
recipient compliance with the law, including evaluating the
effectiveness of programs, monitoring recipient and provider
performance, and preparing annual reports to Congress. Information
collected through the RSR is critical for HRSA, state and local grant
recipients, and individual providers to assess the status of existing
HIV-related service delivery systems, monitor trends in service
utilization, evaluate the impact of data reporting, and identify areas
of greatest need.
Likely Respondents: RWHAP grant recipients, as well as their
subawarded service providers, funded under RWHAP Parts A, B, C, and D.
Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the
information requested. This includes the time needed to review
instructions; to develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and
systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying
information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and
providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and
review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise
disclose the information. The total annual burden hours estimated for
this ICR are summarized in the table below.
