Proposed Project
National HIV Behavioral Surveillance
System (NHBS)—New— National
Center for HIV, STD, and TB Prevention
(NCHSTP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The purpose of this data collection is
to monitor behaviors related to Human
Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection
among persons at high risk for infection
in the United States. The primary
objectives of the system are to obtain
data from samples of persons at risk to:
(a) Describe the prevalence and trends
in risk behaviors; (b) describe the
prevalence of and trends in HIV testing
and HIV infection; (c) describe the
prevalence of and trends in use of HIV
prevention services; (d) identify met and
unmet needs for HIV prevention
services in order to inform health
departments, community based
organizations, community planning
groups and other stakeholders. This
project addresses the goals of CDC’s HIV
prevention strategic plan, specifically
the goal of strengthening the national
capacity to monitor the HIV epidemic to
better direct and evaluate prevention
efforts.
Data are collected through in-person
interviews conducted with persons
systematically selected from 25
Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs)
throughout the United States; these 25
MSAs were chosen based on having
high AIDS prevalence. Persons at risk
for HIV infection to be interviewed for
NHBS include men who have sex with
men (MSM), injecting drug users (IDU),
and heterosexual persons living in
census tracts that have high HIV/AIDS
prevalence (HET). A brief screening
interview will be used to determine
eligibility for participation in the full
survey. The data from the full survey
will provide estimates of behavior
related to the risk of HIV and other
sexually transmitted diseases, prior
testing for HIV, and use of HIV
prevention services. All persons
interviewed will also be offered an HIV
test. No other federal agency
systematically collects this type of
information from persons at risk for HIV
infection. This data will have
substantial impact on prevention
program development and monitoring at
the local, state, and national levels.
CDC estimates that NHBS will
involve, per year in each of the 25
MSAs, eligibility screening for 50 to 200
persons and eligibility screening plus
the survey with 500 eligible
respondents, resulting in a total of
37,500 eligible survey respondents and

7,500 ineligible screened persons during
a 3-year period. Data collection will
rotate such that interviews will be
conducted among one group per year:
MSM in year 1, IDU in year 2, and HET
in year 3. The type of data collected for
each group will vary slightly due to
different sampling methods and risk
characteristics of the group.
Participation of respondents is
voluntary and there is no cost to the
respondents other than their time. The
total estimated annualized burden hours
is 9,931.
