Information Collection Request Title: Assessing Care and Health Outcomes Among Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Clients Who Do Not Receive RWHAPFunded Outpatient Ambulatory Health Services, OMB No. 0906–xxxx–New. Abstract: RWHAP is administered by HRSA’s HIV/ADS Bureau. RWHAP funds and coordinates with cities, states, and local clinics and communitybased organizations to deliver HIV care, treatment, and support to low-income people living with HIV (PLWH). Nearly two-thirds of RWHAP clients live at or below 100 percent of the federal poverty level and about three-quarters are racial or ethnic minorities. Since 1990, the RWHAP has developed a comprehensive system of nearly 2,000 safety net provider organizations that deliver high quality health care and support services to more than 500,000 PLWH, more than 50 percent of all diagnosed PLWH in the United States. Recipients and subrecipients funded to provide direct services must submit client-level data annually to HRSA as part of their RWHAP Services Report (RSR). The RSR (0906–0039) contains a single record for each RWHAP-eligible client who received a service during the calendar year. Providers report demographic and service use data for all their clients. However, they report clinical data (including lab results) only for those who received RWHAP-funded OAHS. HRSA is embarking on a 24-month study called Assessing Care and Health Outcomes Among RWHAP Clients Who Do Not Receive RWHAP-Funded OAHS. The purpose of the study is to learn about the quality of care and health outcomes among the one-third of clients for whom HRSA does not collect clinical information—that is, for the 164,000 clients who do not receive directly funded OAHS under the RWHAP. HRSA will use the findings to (1) assess HIV care and health outcomes among its non-OAHS clients, (2) determine if and where these clients receive OAHS, (3) identify any unmet HIV care and treatment needs faced by this population, and (4) develop strategies to better coordinate services between RWHAP-funded and nonfunded providers. To meet these objectives, HRSA proposes to conduct 30 site visits. Each site visit will include one RWHAP-funded provider that is not directly funded to deliver OAHS and, if necessary for accessing the medical records of their non-OAHS clients, up to two non-RWHAP medical providers. During each site visit, HRSA will collect qualitative and quantitative information via (1) semistructured interviews with program managers, clinicians, and frontline service providers, as well as with non-OAHS clients and (2) medical chart reviews for clients who do not receive directly funded OAHS under the RWHAP. Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The interviews with provider staff and clients will provide qualitative information on HIV-related medical service use, process, and health outcomes; barriers to care; unmet needs; provider referral relationships; and opportunities to improve care and outcomes among clients who do not receive directly funded OAHS under the RWHAP. The medical chart reviews will provide quantitative information on medical visits, prescription medications, and clinical outcomes for a representative sample of non-OAHS clients. HRSA will use the data to estimate three main outcomes for the study population: (1) Retention in care, (2) initiation of antiretroviral therapy, and (3) viral suppression. This information will supplement data available from the RSR on OAHS clients and enable HRSA for the first time to measure the quality of care and health outcomes for its entire client population, an important step toward ending the HIV epidemic in the United States. Likely Respondents: HRSA plans to conduct individual interviews with two groups of informants: (1) Program managers, case managers or other frontline service providers, and medical directors or clinicians; and (2) RWHAP clients. HRSA also plans to review and abstract key data elements from nonOAHS client medical records from providers. 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.

Information Collection Request Title: Evidence-Based Telehealth Network Program Measures, OMB No. 0906– xxxx–New Abstract: This ICR is for a new approval of measures for HRSA’s Federal Office of Rural Health Policy’s Office of Advancement of Telehealth programs. Specifically, grants administered in accordance with the following legislative statutes (i) Section 330I(d)(1) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 254c14(d)(1)), as amended and (ii) Section 711(b) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 912(b)), as amended. The purpose of these programs are to provide grants that demonstrate how telehealth programs and networks can improve access to quality health care services in rural, frontier, and underserved communities. These grants will work to: (a) expand access to, coordinate, and improve the quality of health care services; (b) improve and expand the training of health care providers; and (c) expand and improve the quality of health information available to health care providers, patients and their families for decision-making. In addition, these grants will help HRSA assess the effectiveness of evidence based practices with the use of telehealth for patients, providers, and payers. Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The measures will enable HRSA to capture awardee-level and aggregate data that illustrate the impact and scope of federal funding along with assessing these efforts. The measures cover the principal topic areas of interest to HRSA including: (a) population demographics, (b) access to health care, (c) cost savings and costeffectiveness, and (d) clinical outcomes. Likely Respondents: The respondents will be award recipients of the Evidence Based Telehealth Network Program and Telehealth Network Grant Program. Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide the information requested.
