The HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB) is requesting a class deviation from the competition requirements in order to provide a one-year extension with funds to nineteen Part C HIV Early Intervention Services Program Existing Geographic Service Area (EISEGA) grantees. HAB is currently evaluating the EISEGA program and intends to recompete the entire program in fiscal year (FY) 2017. Nineteen of the 347 Part C grantees were scheduled to recompete in FY 2016. One-year extensions with funds enables HAB to align all cohorts of EISEGA grantees without disrupting the provision of critical HIV primary medical care services to the current Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) clients served by these nineteen RWHAP Part C recipients. Pending the availability of funds, the amount of each FY 2016 award will be based on a proportion of the current Part C EISEGA award to each of the nineteen recipients, respectively.

SUMMARY: The HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB) is requesting a class deviation from 
the competition requirements in order to provide a one-year extension 
with funds to nineteen Part C HIV Early Intervention Services Program 
Existing Geographic Service Area (EISEGA) grantees. HAB is currently 
evaluating the EISEGA program and intends to recompete the entire 
program in fiscal year (FY) 2017. Nineteen of the 347 Part C grantees 
were scheduled to recompete in FY 2016. One-year extensions with funds 
enables HAB to align all cohorts of EISEGA grantees without disrupting 
the provision of critical HIV primary medical care services to the 
current Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) clients served by these 
nineteen RWHAP Part C recipients. Pending the availability of funds, 
the amount of each FY 2016 award will be based on a proportion of the 
current Part C EISEGA award to each of the nineteen recipients, 
respectively.

    Aggregate amount of Non-Competitive Awards: $8,097,427.
CFDA Number: 93.918
    Authority: Sections 2651-2667 of the Public Health Service Act (42 
U.S.C. 300ff-51-67) and section 2693 of the Public Health Service Act, 
as amended by the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Treatment Extension Act of 2009 
(Pub. L. 111-87).
    Justification: The purpose of the RWHAP Part C EISEGA Program is to 
provide HIV primary care in the outpatient setting. Grantees provide a 
comprehensive continuum of outpatient HIV primary care services in the 
designated service area including: (1) Targeted HIV counseling, 
testing, and referral; (2) medical evaluation and clinical care; (3) 
other primary care services; and (4) referrals to other health 
services. Identifying people infected with HIV and linking them to HIV 
primary care with initiation and long-term maintenance of life-saving 
antiretroviral treatment (ART) are important public health steps toward 
the elimination of HIV in the United States. The continuum of 
interventions that begins with outreach and testing and concludes with 
HIV viral load suppression is generally referred to as the HIV Care 
Continuum or the Care Treatment Cascade. The HIV Care Continuum 
includes the diagnosis of HIV, linkage to HIV medical care, lifelong 
retention in HIV medical care, appropriate prescription of ART, and 
ultimately HIV viral load suppression.
