                     Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Modeling Project—OMB No. 0990-New-Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation. *Abstract:*
                     The Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE) is requesting the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval of a new collection that will examine the service needs under the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program as the provisions of the Affordable Care Act are implemented, and identify strategies for ensuring that available federal resources are directed to areas of greatest need. To supplement the analysis of existing quantitative data sources, including Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program data, Medicaid enrollment and claims data, and HIV surveillance data, this two-year information collection request is for primary data collection in the form of telephone interviews with administrators of Ryan White grants and providers of HIV care services. In light of Congressional interest expressed in Senate Report 111-243 concerning how the Ryan White Program will transition into a larger system of care with the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, these interviews will help ASPE to understand the potential impact of the Affordable Care Act from the perspectives of Ryan White grantees and service providers. The interview protocols will cover topics including HIV service needs and use; coordination of client insurance enrollment, benefits, and services; factors that influence variation in HIV care costs and selection of AIDS Drug Assistance Program cost containment procedures; and methods of ensuring quality care.
