Information Collection Request Title: Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) Initiative Triannual Report OMB No. 0915- 0051¥Extension. Abstract: HRSA’s Ryan White HIV/ AIDS Program (RWHAP) funds and coordinates with cities, states, and local clinics/community-based organizations to deliver efficient and effective HIV care, treatment, and support to lowincome people with HIV. Since 1990, the RWHAP has developed a comprehensive system of safety net providers who deliver high quality direct health care and support services to over half a million people with HIV— more than 50 percent of all people with diagnosed HIV in the United States. Nearly two-thirds of clients (patients) live at or below 100 percent of the federal poverty level and approximately three-quarters of RWHAP clients are racial/ethnic minorities.1 The federal Ending the HIV Epidemic in the U.S. (EHE) initiative focuses on reducing the number of new HIV infections in the United States by at least 90 percent by 2030, which would be fewer than 3,000 per year.2 Authorized by section 311(c) and title XXVI of the Public Health Service Act, this 10-year initiative beginning in Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 focuses on 48 counties; Washington, DC; San Juan; and seven states that have a substantial rural HIV burden. EHE initiative efforts focus on the following four key strategies that together can end the HIV epidemic in the United States: ADDRESSES: 1 HRSA. Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Data Report, 2020. 2 HRSA. Ending the HIV Epidemic in the U.S. https://www.hrsa.gov/ending-hiv-epidemic. Accessed July 12, 2022. PO 00000 Frm 00055 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 59443 1. Diagnose all people with HIV as early as possible. 2. Treat people with HIV rapidly and effectively to reach sustained viral suppression. 3. Prevent new HIV transmissions by using proven interventions, including pre-exposure prophylaxis and syringe services programs. 4. Respond quickly to potential HIV outbreaks to get needed prevention and treatment services to people who need them. The EHE initiative is a collaborative effort among key HHS agencies, primarily HRSA, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institutes of Health, the Indian Health Service, and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Through HRSA’s RWHAP and Health Center Program, the agency has a leading role in helping diagnose, treat, prevent, and respond to end the HIV epidemic in the United States. In June 2022, HRSA awarded nearly $115 million to RWHAP recipients to help implement the EHE initiative to support innovative strategies that help people with HIV access care, support, and treatment services to live long, healthier lives. EHE initiative funding was awarded to 39 metropolitan areas (RWHAP part A) and eight states (RWHAP part B) to implement strategies and interventions for the provision of core medical and supportive services to reduce new HIV infections.3 Need and Proposed Use of the Information: To support federal requirements to monitor and report on funds distributed through the EHE Initiative, HRSA created a reporting module, the EHE Triannual Report, an aggregate data report submitted three times a year by EHE recipients and providers of services. EHE-funded providers report aggregate information on the number of clients receiving specific services and the number of clients who were prescribed antiretroviral medications in the 4month reporting period. This module will provide HRSA with frequent and timely data on EHE Initiative progress by providing information on the number of clients who are reached through the EHE Initiative. In addition, HRSA can calculate the number of clients who did not receive services in the previous year by subtracting the number of clients who received services in the previous year and the number of new clients from the total number of clients.

This module will support project officer monitoring and HRSA’s understanding of service provision. Finally, the information collected in the EHE Triannual Report will complement the annual information collected through the RWHAP Services Report and other reporting mechanisms and support HRSA in its ability to monitor EHE initiative activities and assess progress toward meeting national goals for ending the HIV epidemic. Likely Respondents: RWHAP part A and part B Recipients and Subrecipients funded by the EHE initiative. 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.

viral suppression.
    3. Prevent new HIV transmissions by using proven interventions, 
including pre-exposure prophylaxis and syringe services programs.

    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: To support federal 
requirements to monitor and report on funds distributed through the EHE 
Initiative, HRSA created a reporting module, the EHE Triannual Report, 
an aggregate data report submitted three times a year by EHE recipients 
and providers of services. EHE-funded providers report aggregate 
information on the number of clients receiving specific services and 
the number of clients who were prescribed antiretroviral medications in 
the 4-month reporting period. This module will provide HRSA with 
frequent and timely data on EHE Initiative progress by providing 
information on the number of clients who are reached through the EHE 
Initiative. In addition, HRSA can calculate the number of clients who 
did not receive services in the previous year by subtracting the number 
of clients who received services in the previous year and the number of 
new clients from the total number of clients. This will

[[Page 59444]]

provide valuable information on the scope of outreach to new clients 
and clients who have had a lapse in service, which could be an 
indication of reengagement in care. This module will support project 
officer monitoring and HRSA's understanding of service provision. 
Finally, the information collected in the EHE Triannual Report will 
complement the annual information collected through the RWHAP Services 
Report and other reporting mechanisms and support HRSA in its ability 
to monitor EHE initiative activities and assess progress toward meeting 
national goals for ending the HIV epidemic.
    Likely Respondents: RWHAP part A and part B Recipients and 
Subrecipients funded by the EHE initiative.
    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.

    HRSA specifically requests comments on (1) the necessity and 
utility of the proposed information collection for the proper 
performance of the agency's functions, (2) the accuracy of the 
estimated burden, (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information to be collected, and (4) the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology to 
minimize the information collection burden.
