SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title: Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program
Parts A and B Unobligated Balances and Rebate Addendum Tables--OMB No.
0906-0047--Extension.
Abstract: HRSA's Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) funds and
coordinates with cities, states and territories, and local clinics/
community-based organizations to deliver efficient and effective HIV
care, treatment, and support to low-income people diagnosed with HIV.
Nearly two-thirds of RWHAP clients (patients) live at or below 100
percent of the federal poverty level. Since 1990, RWHAP has developed a
comprehensive system of HIV service providers who deliver high quality
direct health care and support services to over half a million people
with diagnosed HIV--more than 50 percent of all people with diagnosed
HIV in the United States.
Grant recipients funded under RWHAP Parts A, B, C, and D (codified
under Title XXVI of the Public Health Service Act) are required to
report financial data to HRSA at the beginning (Allocations Report) and
at the end of each grant budget period (Expenditures Report) using the
designated HRSA grant submission software which is approved by OMB
under the 0915-0318 control number. HRSA collects unobligated balances
(UOB) of federal funds and rebate addendum information by subprogram
from their grant recipients. A UOB is the cumulative amount that is
available for obligation in an unexpired account. HRSA uses the UOB and
rebate addendum financial information to determine formula funding as
directed by the RWHAP statute. HRSA is not planning to make changes to
this information collection as part of this extension request.
Federal award expenditure data were previously collected when grant
recipients submitted their annual Federal Financial Report (FFR SF-
425), which HRSA then combined with the UOB and rebate addendum tables
submitted by recipients using the designated HRSA grant submission
software. HRSA created the currently approved instrument, which has
been in use for several years now, to streamline the process for grant
recipients by collecting financial information in the same location and
at the same time as the FFR SF-425. Whereas grant recipients previously
completed the FFR SF-425 in the HRSA Electronic Handbooks, they now
complete it in the Payment Management System. Additionally, grant
recipients complete the UOB and rebate addendum data tables as part of
their FFR SF-425 submission in the Payment Management System.
A 60-day notice was published in the Federal Register on August 29,
2025, vol. 90, No. 166; pp. 42253-55. There were no public comments.
Need and Proposed Use of the Information: Before implementing the
current process described above, RWHAP Part A and Part B recipients
completed the UOB and rebate addendum tables in a non-electronic form
and uploaded them as attachments to their FFR SF-425 submission.
Renewal of the current process will continue to increase transparency
and improve the quality of data submitted to HRSA. These UOB and rebate
addendum tables are essential for allowing HRSA to ensure that RWHAP
recipients are meeting the goal of accountability to Congress, clients,
advocacy groups, and the general public. Information provided in the
UOB and rebate addendum tables is critical for HRSA, cities, states and
territories, local clinics, and individual providers to evaluate the
effectiveness of these programs.
