America (EHE) jurisdictions, which are
48 counties; Washington, DC; San Juan,
Puerto Rico; and seven states that have
a substantial rural HIV burden. Since
the AETC regional centers operate in all
U.S. states and territories, the target
areas of the EHE are already
encompassed in their service areas. This
geographic coverage offers HRSA a
strategic opportunity to leverage the
existing AETC infrastructure and their
established networks of health care
providers and professional training
institutions to provide critical, timesensitive training and technical
assistance in EHE jurisdictions. Further,
since the goals of the AETC program
directly align with the goals of the EHE
initiative, regional AETCs are uniquely
positioned to immediately begin
delivering targeted, multidisciplinary
education and training to new and
experienced health care professionals to
enable them to provide quality HIV care
and treatment in the EHE jurisdictions.
Supplemental funds are necessary to
support timely implementation of
critical training and technical assistance
to providers in geographic locations
identified by the EHE initiative. The

AIDS Drug Assistance Program Data
Report (ADAP) OMB No. 0915–0345—
Revisions.
Abstract: HRSA’s Ryan White HIV/
AIDS Program AIDS Drug Assistance
Program (RWHAP ADAP) is authorized
under Part B of the RWHAP legislation,
codified in sections 2611 et seq. of the
Public Health Service Act, which
provides grants to U.S. states and
territories. HRSA’s RWHAP ADAP is a
state and territory-administered program
that provides Food and Drug
Administration-approved medications
to low-income people with HIV who
have limited or no health coverage from
private insurance, Medicaid, or
Medicare. HRSA’s RWHAP ADAP funds
may also be used to purchase health
insurance for eligible clients and for
services that enhance access, adherence,
and monitoring of drug treatments.
All 50 states, the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin
Islands, and the five U.S. Pacific
Territories or Associated Jurisdictions
receive RWHAP Part B grant awards
including funds for RWHAP ADAP.
RWHAP Part B reporting requirements
include the annual submission of an
ADAP Data Report (ADR), including a
Recipient Report and a Client Report.
The Recipient Report is a collection of
basic information about grant recipient
characteristics and policies including
program administration, purchasing
mechanisms, funding, and
expenditures. The Client Report is a
collection of client-level records (one
record for each client enrolled in the
RWHAP ADAP), which includes the
client’s encrypted unique identifier,
basic demographic data, enrollment
information, services received and
clinical data.
HRSA is proposing several changes to
the ADR Recipient and Client Reports to
improve question clarity, delete obsolete
data elements, combine related data
elements, add new data elements, and
improve response options to reflect
program practices and support HRSA’s
analysis and understanding of program
impact. In addition, a new initiative,
