The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB), Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS) Program is accepting applications for a new 4-year cooperative agreement entitled, Building Capacity to Improve Collecting and Reporting Viral Suppression Data to the Medicaid Adult Core Set (HRSA 21-083).
HRSA will award one System Coordination Provider (SCP) to select, fund, and work with up to 10 Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part B recipients, and HIV surveillance and Medicaid programs to build capacity to report high-quality HIV viral suppression data to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) as part of the annual state Medicaid Adult Core Set reporting.
The SCP will work with state RWHAP, HIV surveillance, and Medicaid programs to develop, implement, and evaluate strategies to improve the collection and reporting of HIV viral suppression data to the Adult Core Set.
In addition, the SCP will promote the dissemination and replication of effective strategies and lessons learned for adoption across other states.
