    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 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.
