The Dental Reimbursement Program
(DRP) and the Community-Based Dental
Partnership Program under Part F of the
Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program offer
funding to accredited dental education
programs to support the provision of
oral health services for HIV-positive
individuals. Institutions eligible for
these programs are accredited schools of
dentistry, post-doctoral dental
education programs and dental hygiene
programs.
The DRP Application is the Dental
Services Report that schools and
programs use to apply for funding of
non-reimbursed costs incurred in
providing oral health care to patients
with HIV, or to report annual program
data. Awards are authorized under
section 2692(b) of the Public Health
Service Act (42 U.S.C. 300ff–111(b)).

requests applicants to provide narrative
descriptions of their services and
facilities, as well as their links and
collaboration with community-based
providers of oral health services.
The primary purpose of collecting this
information annually is to verify
eligibility and determine reimbursement
amounts for DRP applicants, as well as
to document the program
accomplishments of Community-Based
Dental Partnership Program grant
recipients. This information also allows
HRSA to learn about (1) The extent of
the involvement of dental schools and
programs in treating patients with HIV,
(2) the number and characteristics of
clients who receive HIV/AIDS programsupported oral health services, (3) the
types and frequency of the provision of
these services, (4) the non-reimbursed
costs of oral health care provided to
patients with HIV, and (5) the scope of
grant recipients’ community-based
collaborations and training of providers.
In addition to meeting the goal of
accountability to Congress, clients,
advocacy groups, and the general
public, information collected in the
Dental Services Report is critical for
HRSA, State and local grantees, and
individual providers, to help assess the
status of existing HIV-related health
service delivery systems.
The reporting burden for reviewing
the Dental Services Report Instructions

Administration (HRSA) conducts
voluntary customer surveys of its
partners to assess strengths and
weaknesses in program services. To
continue the periodic customer or
partner satisfaction survey activities,
HRSA is requesting an extension of
approval from OMB. HRSA partners are,
typically, State or local governments,
health care facilities, health care
consortia, and health care providers.
Partner surveys to be conducted by
HRSA might include, for example, brief
surveys of grantees to determine
satisfaction with a technical assistance
contractor, or, in-class evaluation forms
completed by providers who receive
training from HRSA grantees, to
measure satisfaction with the training
experience. Results of these surveys will
be used to plan and direct program
efforts as needed to improve service.
Focus groups may also be used as a
potential method to obtain input on
services and training. Focus groups, inclass evaluation forms, and satisfaction
surveys provide valuable input from
HRSA partners and customers on
agency services and materials. The
