OVERVIEW
The Dental Services Report is used by two different programs under the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Treatment Extension Act of 2009 (Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program): the Dental Reimbursement Program (DRP) and the Community-Based Dental Partnership Program (CBDPP).
The Report is designed to collect data from accredited pre- and post-doctoral dental education programs and dental hygiene education programs regarding oral health services provided to people who are HIV positive.
Institutions applying for Dental Reimbursement funding may submit a completed Report annually to receive assistance with their unreimbursed costs of care incurred in providing direct oral health services. CBDPP grant recipients use this Report to submit annual program data, which is a condition of their grant awards.

OVERVIEW
OF
THE
RYAN
WHITE
HIV/AIDS
DENTAL
PROGRAMS
Introduction
Section 2692(b) of Title XXVI of the Public Health Service Act authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services to make grants through the Dental Reimbursement Program (DRP) to accredited pre-doctoral dental, post-doctoral dental, and dental hygiene education programs to help cover the unreimbursed costs of providing oral health services to patients with HIV. Each eligible dental education program may submit an annual application that documents its unreimbursed costs of providing oral health care to patients with HIV during the prior year. The Secretary distributes the available funds among all eligible applicants, taking into account the unreimbursed costs incurred by each institution, the total of all costs incurred by all eligible applicants, and the amount of funds available.
Section 2692(b) also authorizes the Secretary to make grants to accredited pre-doctoral dental, postdoctoral dental, and dental hygiene education programs, to support partnerships between dental education programs and community-based oral health providers. The Community-Based Dental Partnership Program (CBDPP) focuses on the provision of care and the training of additional oral health providers through collaborative community- based partnerships, to increase access to oral health care for people with HIV. The CBDPP grants are awarded for project periods up to five years. Each grantee must collect, manage, and report annual program data that will document key service delivery and educational components of the funded programs.
Administration
The HIV/AIDS DRP and the CBDPP are administered by the Division of Community-Based Programs within the HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB) of the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). Questions regarding these programs should be directed to:

Item #18. Third Party Payor Coverage
Note: Only direct payments from third party payors (public and private) for services provided should be reported in items #18 and #19. For the purposes of this Report, funding from the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program or other grants is considered program income or revenue, and should not be reported in items #18 or #19.
Of the number of patients reported in item #7a, indicate how many received oral health care with no or partial third party payor coverage, and the number whose third party payor coverage status was unknown. Note: The total number of patients reported here should be equal to the total reported in item #7a.
Item #19. Number of Patients and Payments Received
Indicate the number of patients with HIV whose oral health care was partially covered by each of the indicated payment sources and the amount of payments received (rounded to the nearest dollar) from those sources, including patients who self- pay. For the purposes of this Report, count a patient in this table if at any time during the period covered by this Report, payment was received for at least one visit or service.
Patients whose oral health care was covered by more than one payment source should be reported under all categories of payment source from which payment was received.
