Information Collection Request Title:
AIDS Drug Assistance Program Data
Report OMB No. 0915–0345—
Extension.
Abstract: HRSA’s AIDS Drug
Assistance Program (ADAP) is funded
through the Ryan White HIV/AIDS
Program, Part B, Title XXVI of the
Public Health Service Act, which
provides funding to states and territories
through a grant. ADAP provides
medications for the treatment of HIV to
eligible clients who are low income and
uninsured or underinsured. ADAP
recipients may also use the funds to
purchase health insurance for eligible
clients and for services that enhance
access, adherence, and monitoring of
drug treatments.
The following states, territories, and
Pacific Island jurisdictions are eligible
to apply for RWHAP ADAP funding: All
50 states, the District of Columbia, the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the U.S.
Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa,
the Commonwealth of the Northern
Mariana Islands, the Republic of Palau,
the Federated States of Micronesia, and
the Republic of the Marshall Islands. As
part of the funding requirements,
ADAPs submit reports concerning
information on clients served, eligibility
requirements, pharmaceuticals
prescribed, pricing and other sources of
support to provide HIV medication
treatment, cost data, and coordination
with Medicaid. The AIDS Drug
Assistance Program Data Report (ADR)
is submitted annually and consists of a
Recipient Report and a client-level data
file. The Recipient Report is a collection
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
PO 00000
Frm 00030
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
of basic information about grant
recipient characteristics and policies.
The client-level data is a collection of
records (one record for each client
enrolled in the ADAP), which includes
the client’s encrypted unique identifier,
basic demographic data, enrollment
information, services received, and
clinical data.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The Ryan White HIV/AIDS
Program requires the submission of
annual reports by the Secretary of HHS
to the appropriate committees of
Congress. The HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB)
uses the ADR to evaluate the national
impact of the ADAP, by providing data
on clients being served, services being
delivered, and costs associated with
these services. The ADR is also used to
determine eligibility for the ADAP
Supplement component of the RWHAP
Part B grant (X07). The client-level data
is used to monitor health outcomes of
clients living with HIV receiving care
and treatment through the ADAP, to
monitor the use of ADAP funds in
addressing the HIV epidemic and its
impact on vulnerable communities, and
to track progress toward achieving the
national goals for HIV care and
treatment.
Likely Respondents: State/Territory
ADAPs of Ryan White HIV/AIDS
Program Part B 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.
