2010 Summer RSR Client-Level Data XML Upload Test

In order to reduce the reporting burden on grantees and providers, HAB has decided that grantees and providers, who submitted client-level data files as part of the 2009 RSR year end report, will not be required to submit a 2010 Interim Report. Furthermore, those agencies that did not upload client-level data will only be required to demonstrate their readiness to submit client-level data XML files during the summer of 2010 as part of the "2010 RSR Client-Level Data XML Upload Test." This decision was announced in a letter from Dr. Deborah Parham Hopson, Associate Administrator of the HIV/AIDS Bureau at the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), on April 26, 2010.

2009 Ryan White Data Report (RDR) and Services Report (RSR) Training

The 2009 Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Data Report (RDR) and Services Report (RSR) trainings have concluded. The training materials will be posted on the 2009 RDR and RSR Annual Mailing Resource Materials web page.

What is the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Services Report?

Beginning in 2009, Ryan White Program grantees and service providers started using a new data collection and reporting system to report information on their programs and the clients they serve to the HIV/AIDS Bureau.

The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Services Report, or the RSR for short, is comprised of:

  • The Grantee Report. Grantees will complete this report online through the HRSA Electronic Handbooks (EHBs) using a web-based data entry system. Besides providing basic information about their organization, they will view, update, and verify a pre-filled list of their service provider contracts that were active in the most recent reporting period. For each of the contracts, grantees will view a list of Ryan White Program services and then check the boxes next to all services that their organization funded under the contract.
  • The Service Provider Report. Service providers will complete this report online. In addition to providing some basic information about their organization, providers will view a pre-filled list of their active service provider contracts for the most recent reporting period. For each of the service contracts, providers will view a list of Ryan White Program services and check the boxes next to all services that their organization delivered to RW Program clients during the reporting period.
  • The Client Report. Each service provider will submit this report online as an electronic file upload using a standard format. Each upload file will contain one record per client. Each client record will include information on demographic status, HIV clinical information, HIV-care medical and support services received, and the client's 'UCI', an encrypted, unique client identifier.
