HRSAâs Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) funds and coordinates with cities, states and territories, and local clinics/community-based organizations to deliver efficient and effective HIV care, treatment, and support to low-income people diagnosed with HIV. Nearly two-thirds of RWHAP clients (patients) live at or below 100 percent of the Federal poverty level and approximately three-quarters of RWHAP clients are racial and ethnic minorities. Since 1990, the RWHAP has developed a comprehensive system of HIV service providers who deliver high quality direct health care and support services to over half a million people diagnosed with HIVâmore than 50 percent of all people diagnosed with HIV in the United States.
Grant recipients funded under Parts A, B, C, and D of the RWHAP (codified under Title XXVI of the Public Health Service Act) are required to report financial data to HRSA at the beginning (Allocations Report) and at the end of each grant budget period (Expenditures Report) using the HRSA Electronic Handbooks (EHBs). HRSA RWHAPâs Parts A and B collect unobligated balances (UOB) of federal funds and rebate addendum information by subprogram from their grant recipients. Parts A and B use the UOB and rebate addendum financial information to determine formula funding as directed by the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program statute. These data were collected when grant recipients submitted their annual Federal Financial Report (FFR SF-425) in hard copy only, and were submitted to the individual OPDIVs. HRSA HAB combined the FFR SF-425 with the UOB and rebate addendum tables using a suggested format through the HRSA EHBs. This financial information is collected in the same location to streamline the process for the grant recipients. The UOB and rebate addendum data tables will be collected in the HRSA EHBs below the FFR SF-425 control number and the Paperwork Burden Statement.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).

(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
