Annual Performance Report—Component 3: Form Instructions

Integrated Viral Hepatitis Surveillance and Prevention Funding for Health Departments

Component 3: Special Projects—Prevention, Diagnosis, and Treatment Related to the Infectious Disease Consequences of Drug Use


The Annual Performance Report (APR) is required.

Recipients must submit the APR via www.Grantsolutions.gov no later than 120 days prior to the end of the budget period. Please visit the Notice of Funding Opportunity (CDC-RFA-PS21-2103) starting on page 68 for additional information.


Evaluation and Performance Measures are listed in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (CDC-RFA-PS21-2103) starting on page 29. Please review this section, along with Strategies and Activities starting on page 11, before completing your APR.


Complete this form with information from the Reporting Period selected.


Note: Timelines are provided for each measure, however in general:

  • Short-term outcomes should be reached by the end of year 3. Measures associated with these outcomes should be reported each year. Recipient can define year 1 goal, and year 2 goal should be determined based on interim activities.

  • Intermediate outcomes should be reached by the end of year 5. Measures associated with these outcomes should be reported each year.

  • Outcomes for measures that are “contingent on funding” are not required to be reached unless funded during the course of the award. Reporting of these measures is recommended but not required.

    • Stratify by setting serving PWID (one row per setting). Choose the appropriate setting from the drop-down list. Report the unduplicated count of PWID seen at least once in each collaborating setting during the reporting period. Report data for all collaborating settings.

  • Include total number of settings and total for each column across all settings in last row of table.

  • See pages 22–26 in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (CDC-RFA-PS21-2103) for more information.

  • Treatment is defined as any treatment, behavioral or medical or a combination, for substance use disorder under the care of a licensed provider.

  • Substance use disorder is defined as a pathologic pattern of behaviors in which patients continue to use a substance despite experiencing significant problems related to its use. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM 5) gives 11 criteria divided into 4 categories.

    • Impaired control over use

      • The person takes the substance in larger amounts or for a longer time than originally planned

      • The person desires to stop or cut down use of the substance

      • The person spends substantial time obtaining, using, or recovering from the effects of the substance

      • The person has an intense desire (craving) to use the substance

    • Social impairment

      • The person fails to fulfill major role obligations at work, school, or home

      • The person continues to use the substance even though it causes (or worsens) social or interpersonal problems

      • The person gives up or reduces important social, occupational, or recreational activity because of substance use

    • Risky use

      • The person uses the substance in physically hazardous situations (eg, when driving or in dangerous social circumstances)

      • The person continues to use the substance despite knowing it is worsening a medical or psychologic problem

    • Pharmacologic symptoms*

      • Tolerance: The person needs to progressively increase the drug dose to produce intoxication or the desired effect, or the effect of a given dose decreases over time

      • Withdrawal: Untoward physical effects occur when the drug is stopped or when it is counteracted by a specific antagonist

* Note that some drugs, particularly opioidssedative/hypnotics, and stimulants, can result in tolerance and/or withdrawal symptoms even when taken as prescribed for legitimate medical reasons. Withdrawal symptoms that develop following appropriate medical use do not count as criteria for diagnosis of a substance use disorder.


People with two or more of the 11 criteria within a 12-month period are considered to have a substance use disorder. Mild substance use disorder is defined as meeting 2 to 3 criteria. Moderate substance use disorder is defined as meeting 4 to 5 criteria. Severe substance use disorder is defined as  6 criteria

  • Because PWID with substance use disorder may often have more than one type of substance use disorder, and treatment for all diagnosed substance use disorders is usually addressed simultaneously, any initial visit for any substance use disorder is counted in this measure.

  • Opioid Use Disorder — According to the “Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5),” opioid use disorder is present if the pattern of opioid use causes clinically significant impairment or distress as manifested by the presence of ≥ 2 of the following over a 12-month period:

    • Taking opioids in larger amounts or for a longer time than intended
