Proposed Project: Ryan White HIV/
AIDS Program Core Medical Services
Waiver Application Requirements
(NEW)
Title XXVI of the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act, as amended by the
Ryan White HIV/AIDS Treatment
Modernization Act of 2006 (Ryan White
HIV/AIDS Program) requires that
grantees expend 75 percent of Parts A,
B, and C funds on core medical services,
including antiretroviral drugs, for
individuals with HIV/AIDS identified
and eligible under the legislation,
effective Fiscal Year (FY) 2007. In order
for grantees under Parts A, B, and C to
be exempted from the 75 percent core
medical services requirement, they must
request and receive a waiver from
HRSA, as required in the Act. HRSA has
developed a process for waiver request
submission, review, and notification.
The core medical services waiver
uniform standard and waiver request
process will apply to Ryan White HIV/
AIDS Program grant awards under Parts
A, B, and C of Title XXVI of the PHS
Act beginning FY 2008. Core medical
services waivers will be effective for a
one-year period consistent with the
grant award period.
Grantees must submit a waiver
request with the annual grant
application containing the following
certifications and documentations
which will be utilized by HRSA in
making determinations regarding waiver
requests. The waiver must include:
1. Certification from the Part B state
grantee that there are no current or
anticipated ADAP services waiting lists
in the state for the year in which such
waiver request is made. This
certification must also specify that there
are no waiting lists for a particular core
class of antiretroviral therapeutics
established by the Secretary, e.g., fusion
inhibitors;
2. Certification that all core medical
services listed in the statute (Part A
section 2604(c)(3), Part B section

2651(c)(3)), regardless of whether such
services are funded by the Ryan White
HIV/AIDS Program, are available within
30 days for all identified and eligible
individuals with HIV/AIDS in the
service area;
3. Evidence that a public process was
conducted to seek public input on
availability of core medical services;
4. Evidence that receipt of the core
medical services waiver is consistent
with the grantee’s Ryan White HIV/
AIDS Program application (e.g.,
‘‘Description of Priority Setting and
Resource Allocation Processes’’ and

provide States with revised application
guidance and instructions to implement
changes made in accordance with the
recommendations of OMB’s Program
Assessment Rating Tool (PART)
analysis. In addition, SAMHSA has
incorporated recommendations from the
National Association of State Alcohol
and Drug Abuse Directors (NASADAD)
and their member States in the revisions
and clarification of data reporting
requirements and instructions.
During the negotiations with the
States resulting in agreement on the
National Outcome Measures (NOMs) for
substance abuse treatment and
prevention, SAMHSA pledged to the
States to:
1. Reduce respondent burden;
2. work with the States to improve
performance management of the SAPT
Block Grant;
3. improve the availability, timeliness,
and quality of data available to Federal,
State, and provider administrators of
block grant funded programs.
This revision of the Uniform
Application and Regulation for the
SAPT Block Grant takes initial steps
toward implementing these
commitments. Individual States may
reduce their respondent burden by
selecting the option of using SAMHSA
pre-populated tables for Section IVa and
b. The data for these tables would be
drawn from SAMHSA data sets known
as Drug and Alcohol Services
Information System (DASIS) Treatment
Episode Data Set (TEDS) and National
Survey on Drug Use and Health
(NSDUH) by SAMHSA and provided to
the States. SAMHSA is providing the
States with the option of reporting on
prevention expenditures utilizing the
six prevention strategies or utilizing the
