The following request has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget for review under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995: Evaluation of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Dental Reimbursement Program--Title 776(b) of the Public Health Service Act authorizes the Secretary to make grants to assist accredited dental schools and post- doctoral dental programs to meet uncompensated costs for providing oral health care to HIV infected individuals. A survey will be conducted to determine the effect this reimbursement program has had on the conduct of HIV/AIDS education and services within institutions and their graduates receiving these funds. The survey will assess the effect the Program has had on (1) the support and commitment of institutions to HIV/AIDS education and the provision of care; (2) the scope, content and conduct of HIV/AIDS education in participating institutions, (3) increasing the access to oral health care by HIV/AIDS patients; and (4) improving the integration of oral health care with health care and long-term HIV/AIDS case management under other components of the Ryan White Act. The survey will compare dental schools and hospitals awarded Ryan White HIV/AIDS dental reimbursement monies with eligible institutions which did not participate in the reimbursement program. An initial mail questionnaire will be followed up by a telephone interview. The telephone interview will use Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI) technology.
