Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request; State Court
Improvement Program
The Court Improvement Program
(CIP) is a mandatory formula grant
funded under section 438 of the Social
Security Act, and most recently
reauthorized under the Child and
Family Services Improvement and
Innovation Act of 2012 (Pub. L. 112–34).
The purpose of the CIP is to facilitate
the handling of child welfare cases in
the courts. All 50 states, Puerto Rico,
and the District of Columbia receive
grants under the program. The program
requires two submissions annually from
grantees that constitute information
collections under the Paperwork
Reduction Act.
The purpose of this notice is to
request an extension of the Office of
Management and Budget Control
Number 0907–0307 permitting
continued use of the information
collections required by ACF–CB–PI–12–
02. The burden estimates are provided
below. The Administration on Children,
Youth, and Families anticipates issuing
a new Program Instruction for federal
fiscal year 2017.
Following the publication of the first
Federal Register notice, the Children’s
Bureau engaged in a number of outreach
activities to seek additional input from
grantees and experts in the field on how
best to reduce grantee burden, ensure
that the reporting process was useful to
grantees, and maximize the ability to
evaluate the program overall. These
efforts have resulted in the decision to
require one annual submission, as
opposed to two submissions.
The annual submission will include:
(1) A self-assessment, and (2) a strategic
plan. The self-assessment requires the
grantees to identify the topical work
areas of the last year, identify strengths,
challenges and need for technical
assistance. The self-assessment has been
designed with user/grantee input with
the intention of minimizing burden and
maximizing usefulness of the process
and product to the grantee. The strategic
plan identifies projects and activities
and intended results for the coming
year. The strategic plan was also
developed with grantee input. A full
application will be due once every five
years. The full application will require
a five year strategic plan, letters of
commitment from the highest court of
appeal and state title IV–E/IV–B agency,
a budget narrative, and a list of all
statewide task force members.
Taken together, the changes reduce
the overall burden hours from years past
and those anticipated in the previous
Federal Register notice by
approximately 50%.
Respondents: Highest State Court.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title:
HIV Quality Measures Module OMB No.
0915–XXXX, New
Abstract: The Ryan White HIV/AIDS
Program (RWHAP) provides entities
funded by the Program with flexibility
to respond effectively to the changing
HIV epidemic, with an emphasis on
providing life-saving and life-extending
services for people living with HIV. All
RWHAP recipients must follow certain
legislative requirements, such as the
establishment of clinical quality
management programs, to assess their
HIV services according to the most
recent Public Health Service guidelines
and to develop strategies to improve
access to quality HIV services. The HIV
Quality Measures Module (HIVQM
Module) is a new voluntary data system
that recipients funded under all Parts of
the RWHAP may use to monitor their
performance in providing quality HIV
services. Recipients may enter data into
the module on their HIV/AIDS Bureau
(HAB) performance measures and then
generate reports to assess their
performance. Recipients may also
compare their performance regionally
and nationally against other recipients.
The HAB performance measures
comprise the following categories: (1)
Core, (2) all ages, (3) adolescent/adult,
(4) HIV-positive children, (5) HIVexposed children, (6) medical case
management, (7) oral health, (8) AIDS
Drug Assistance Program (RWHAP’s
drug assistance program), and (9)
systems-level. HAB created the HIVQM
Module as an online tool to facilitate
recipients in meeting the clinical quality
management program requirement. The
use of the module is voluntary for
RWHAP recipients, but strongly
encouraged.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The HIVQM Module will
provide recipients an easy-to-use and
structured platform to voluntarily
continually monitor their performance
in serving their clients, particularly in
access to care and the provision of
quality HIV services. The main purpose
for the module is to help recipients set
goals and monitor performance
measures and their quality improvement
projects. HRSA expects the HIVQM
Module to better support clinical quality
management, performance
measurement, service delivery, and
client monitoring at both the recipient
and client levels. In addition, for
recipients and sub-recipients
participating in the Centers for Medicare
and Medicaid Incentive Programs, such
as the Medicare and Medicaid
Electronic Health Records Incentive
Program and the Physician Quality
Reporting System, the module will be
consistent to qualify and comply with
the requirements to receive incentives
from these programs.
The module will be available for data
entry three times a year. The module
will be accessible via the Ryan White
Services Report (RSR), an existing
online tool that grant recipients already
use for required data collection of their
services. Recipients will choose which
performance measures they want to
monitor and enter data accordingly.
Reports or performance measures can be
generated and reviewed by the
recipients and their sub-recipients and
can be compared with other RWHAP
recipients by provider type, by region,
and at the national level.
Likely Respondents: Ryan White HIV/
AIDS Program Part A, Part B, Part C, and
Part D recipients and sub-recipients.
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.
