INTRODUCTION
This annual reporting requirement is for family planning services delivery projects authorized and funded
under the Population Research and Voluntary Family Planning Programs (Section 1001 of Title X of the
Public Health Service Act, 42 United States Code [USC] 300). 1 The Office of Family Planning (OFP)
within the Office of Population Affairs (OPA) administers the Title X Family Planning Program.
Annual submission of the Family Planning Annual Report (FPAR) is required of all Title X family
planning services grantees for purposes of monitoring and reporting program performance (45 Code of
Federal Regulations [CFR] Part 74 2 and 45 CFR Part 92 3). FPAR data are presented in summary form to
protect the confidentiality of individuals who receive Title X-funded services (42 CFR Part 59). 4
The FPAR is the only source of annual, uniform reporting by all Title X family planning services
grantees. It provides consistent, national-level data on the Title X Family Planning Program and its users.
Information from the FPAR is important to OPA for several reasons. First, OPA uses FPAR data to
monitor compliance with statutory requirements, regulations, and operational guidance set forth in the
Program Guidelines for Project Grants for Family Planning Services (“Program Guidelines”), 5 which
include the following:
•

monitoring compliance with legislative mandates, such as giving priority in the provision of services
to low-income persons [42 USC 300 §1006(c)]1

•

ensuring that Title X grantees and their subcontractors provide a broad range of family planning
methods and services [42 USC 300 §1001(a)]1

Second, OPA uses FPAR data to comply with accountability and federal performance requirements for
Title X family planning funds as required by the 1993 Government Performance and Results Act
(GPRA). Current performance goals for the Title X Family Planning program include giving priority in
the provision of family planning services to low-income individuals, reducing invasive cervical cancer
through Pap testing, reducing infertility through chlamydia screening, and increasing program efficiency
by monitoring the cost of care.

Finally, OPA relies on FPAR data to guide strategic and financial planning, to monitor performance, and
to respond to inquiries from policymakers and Congress about the program. The FPAR allows OPA to
assemble comparable and relevant program data to answer questions about the characteristics of the
population served by Title X projects, use of family planning and related preventive health services
offered, the amount and composition of revenues, and program impact. FPAR data are the basis for
objective grant reviews, program evaluation, and assessment of program technical needs.
This version (January 2014) of the FPAR consists of 15 tables, including a Grantee Profile Cover Sheet
and 14 data tables. The data collected include demographic, social, and economic characteristics of family
planning users; use of family planning and related preventive health services; use of health personnel; and
project revenues. Minor corrections or clarifications to this version of the FPAR Forms and Instructions
include the following:
•

updates to the submission and revision guidance in the “General Instructions” to account for grantees’
use of the Web-based FPAR Data System

•

review and updates to the “Questions About” entries for all sections of the FPAR Forms and
Instructions

•

clarification or correction of the instructions or tables for the following:
- Grantee Profile Cover Sheet – Replaced the term “Delegates/Subcontractors” with
“Subrecipients”
- Table 5 – Corrected and clarified the definitions for reporting users’ principal health insurance
coverage status, including reclassifying health insurance for military personnel and their dependents
as private rather than public health insurance
- Table 6 – Added two new rows, including one for reporting the unduplicated number of users who
are not LEP and a second for reporting the unduplicated number of users with unknown or not
reported LEP status
- Tables 7 and 8 – Changed the row heading from “IUD” to “IUD or IUS,” provided a definition for
the Lactational Amenorrhea Method (LAM), and clarified the definition of the “No method–Other
reason” category to include users who exit the encounter with no method because they have a
sexual partner of the same sex
- Table 10 – Clarified the instructions and modified the row headings to collect clinical breast exam
and related referrals for female users only
- Table 13 – Clarified the instructions for reporting full-time equivalent data for Clinical Services
Providers
- Table 14 – Corrected and clarified the instructions for reporting “Other Public” and “Private” thirdparty revenue, and changed the table row heading from “State Children’s Health Insurance Program
(SCHIP)” to “Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)”

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
This section provides general instructions for completing the FPAR. Grantees should use the general
instructions in conjunction with the table-specific instructions; they are cross-referenced where
appropriate. If you need additional information or guidance, please refer to the Title X Program
Guidelines (http://www.hhs.gov/opa/pdfs/2001-ofp-guidelines-complete.pdf) or the Program Instruction
Series (http://www.hhs.gov/opa/title-x-family-planning/title-x-policies/program-instructions/) available
on the OPA Website.

WHO SUBMITS AN FPAR
Grantees funded under Section 1001 of the Title X Public Health Service Act (42 USC 300) are required
to submit the FPAR. The family planning services grantee is the direct recipient of the Title X grant.
Subrecipients (delegates or subcontractors) to the grantee receive Title X funds via the grantee.
Subrecipients should not submit an FPAR report; instead, subrecipients should follow grantee
instructions for data collection and reporting.

SCOPE OF ACTIVITIES REPORTED IN THE FPAR
The purpose of the FPAR is to provide a comprehensive view of the family planning activities within the
scope of the grantee’s Title X-funded project, as defined in the approved grant application. Family
planning services grantees should report the total, unduplicated number of users, encounters, and other
outputs from activities that are within the scope of a grantee’s Title X-funded project. If you have
questions about whether to include certain data in this report, contact your Regional Program
Consultant (RPC). A current list of RPCs and their contact information is available on the OPA Website
at http://www.hhs.gov/opa/regional-contacts/.

FPAR SUBMISSION DUE DATE
Grantees should prepare and submit the FPAR no later than February 15 after the end of the reporting
period. If February 15 is a weekend day, the FPAR is due on the following Monday or next business day.

SUBMITTING THE FPAR
OPA encourages grantees to submit the FPAR electronically using the Web-based FPAR Data System,
which is located at https://fpar.opa.hhs.gov/. You must have an authorized user account to submit and
manage your FPAR using the system. Contact your RPC (http://www.hhs.gov/opa/regional-contacts/) to
request a user account. Once OPA authorizes your account, you will receive an automated e-mail
confirming your registration and providing a link to the FPAR Data System Website, your user name, and
a temporary password that you will be required to change at first login.
Visit the FPAR Data System Training page (https://fpar.opa.hhs.gov/Training.aspx) to learn about and
register for upcoming training webinars and to access recordings, handouts, and scripts for past webinars.
An FPAR Data System User Guide, accessed from the Support page, provides step-by-step instructions
for using the system to submit and manage your FPAR.
If you are unable to submit the FPAR using the FPAR Data System, contact your RPC
(http://www.hhs.gov/opa/regional-contacts/) to determine the best way (e.g., e-mail or fax) to send them
Title X Family Planning Annual Report

Form Approved
OMB No. 0990-0221
Exp. Date XX/XX/2017

an electronic or hardcopy version of the completed FPAR tables. Once the RPC receives the completed
tables, they will record the date of receipt and enter the FPAR into the FPAR Data System. All subsequent
actions related to your FPAR will be performed using the FPAR Data System.

FPAR DATA VALIDATION
FPAR data undergo rigorous electronic and manual validations prior to tabulation. For FPARs submitted
through the FPAR Data System, the system automatically validates the data as you complete each table to
ensure consistency within and across tables. Each validation procedure is based on a validation rule that
defines which table cells to compare and what condition or validation test to apply (e.g., =, < , > , ≤ , or
≥). The values reported in FPAR Table 1, Row 10, indicated by the double-letter identifiers (AA, BB, and
CC), serve as important checkpoint references to ensure consistency across multiple FPAR tables. The
automated validation procedures include cross-table comparisons to these three FPAR checkpoints, as
well as comparisons between other table cells. The system will flag blank cells; if the value for a cell is
zero, enter “0.”
After a grantee submits an FPAR, it goes through two levels of review by HHS staff. First, an RPC
reviews the FPAR and either accepts it or returns it to the grantee for correction or clarification. Once the
RPC accepts the FPAR, the FPAR Data Coordinator performs a second and final review, either accepting
the FPAR or returning it to the RPC and grantee for correction or clarification. When the FPAR Data
Coordinator has accepted all FPARs, the FPAR data contractor performs additional electronic validations
(“post-submission validations”) to identify reporting errors and highlight reporting issues (e.g., missing or
out-of-range values). The contractor also performs a manual review of all “Note” field comments.

REQUEST FOR FPAR REVISION
During the HHS review of FPARs or after post-submission validations, HHS staff may ask you to correct
or provide additional information about the reported data. If the RPC requests a revision, the FPAR
contact for your agency will receive an automated e-mail from the FPAR Data System that includes
revision instructions. If the FPAR Data Coordinator requests a revision, the RPC will receive the
automated e-mail and will contact you to determine who (RPC or grantee) will correct or clarify the data
using the FPAR Data System.
If you are unable to revise the FPAR using the FPAR Data System, contact your RPC
(http://www.hhs.gov/opa/regional-contacts/) to request assistance. Grantees should consult with their
RPC regarding any region-specific requirements or deadlines for submitting revised FPAR tables.
Grantees should submit revised tables by April 1 to ensure that data from revised tables are included in
the national and regional reports.

FPAR NOTE FIELD
OPA encourages grantees to include information about the data reported in the FPAR tables, including
grantee observations and information about trends or any issues affecting the quality or completeness of
the reported data. Please use the table-specific “Note” field to enter a comment and reference the cell or
cells to which each comment applies. For estimated figures, describe the rationale and method for
generating the estimate. In the FPAR Data System, the “Note” field appears under every FPAR table. The
system also includes a “Note” field under the FPAR Preparation Checklist where grantees may enter
comments about issues affecting data in all FPAR tables.

FPAR IDENTIFICATION
Each FPAR table includes a header with key identifying information. For grantees that use the FPAR
Data System to submit the FPAR, these fields will populate automatically. For grantees that submit a
hardcopy FPAR by fax or e-mail, you must enter this information on the Grantee Profile Cover Sheet.
The identifying information includes the following:
FPAR NUMBER – Enter the unique, four-digit number assigned to your agency by the RPC. This

number is different from your HHS grant number.
DATE SUBMITTED – Enter the report submission date.
REPORTING PERIOD – Enter the reporting period covered by your FPAR report. In most cases, the
reporting period is the 12-month calendar year (i.e., January 1 through December 31). Title X
grantees that begin operating after January 1, stop operating before December 31, or are reporting
data for a different 12-month period (e.g., December to November) should enter the date range for the
period during which their Title X project was active and for which they are reporting data. For
grantees that submit the FPAR using the FPAR Data System, please consult the FPAR Data System
User Guide for instructions about editing the reporting period on the FPAR Preparation Checklist.
INITIAL SUBMISSION OR REVISION – Check the appropriate box in the header of each table to indicate

whether the table is an initial or revised submission. For grantees that submit the FPAR using the
FPAR Data System, the system will automatically update the submission status (initial or revised) of
each table.

TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
OPA provides definitions for key FPAR terms to ensure uniform reporting by Title X grantees. The terms
describe the individuals receiving family planning and related preventive health services at Title Xfunded service sites, the range and scope of the services provided, and the family planning providers who
deliver care.

FAMILY PLANNING USER
A family planning user is an individual who has at least one family planning encounter at a Title X
service site during the reporting period. The same individual may be counted as a family planning user
only once during a reporting period. Grantees should follow the table-specific instructions to identify
applicable users.

FAMILY PLANNING PROVIDER
A family planning provider is the individual who assumes primary responsibility for assessing a client
and documenting services in the client record. Providers include those agency staff that exercise
independent judgment as to the services rendered to the client during an encounter. Two general types of
providers deliver Title X family planning services: Clinical Services Providers and Other Services
Providers.
CLINICAL SERVICES PROVIDERS – Include physicians (family and general practitioners, specialists),
physician assistants, nurse practitioners, certified nurse midwives, and registered nurses with an
expanded scope of practice who are trained and permitted by state-specific regulations to perform all
aspects of the user (male and female) physical assessment, as described in the Program Guidelines.
Clinical Services Providers are able to offer client education, counseling, referral, followup, and
clinical services (physical assessment, treatment, and management) relating to a client’s proposed or
adopted method of contraception, general reproductive health, or infertility treatment, in accordance
with the Program Guidelines.
OTHER SERVICES PROVIDERS – Include other agency staff (e.g., registered nurses, public health nurses,
licensed vocational or licensed practical nurses, certified nurse assistants, health educators, social
workers, or clinic aides) that offer client education, counseling, referral, or followup services relating
to the client’s proposed or adopted method of contraception, general reproductive health, or infertility
treatment, as described in the Program Guidelines. Other Services Providers may also perform or
obtain samples for routine laboratory tests (e.g., urine, pregnancy, STD, and cholesterol and lipid
analysis), give contraceptive injections (e.g., Depo-Provera), and perform routine clinical procedures
that may include some aspects of the user physical assessment (e.g., blood pressure evaluation), in
accordance with the Program Guidelines.

FAMILY PLANNING ENCOUNTER
A family planning encounter is a documented, face-to-face contact between an individual and a family
planning provider that takes place in a Title X service site. The purpose of a family planning encounter is
to provide family planning and related preventive health services to female and male clients who want to
avoid unintended pregnancies or achieve intended pregnancies. To be counted for purposes of the FPAR,

Title X Family Planning Annual Report
–7–

Form Approved
OMB No. 0990-0221
Exp. Date XX/XX/2017

a written record of the services provided during the family planning encounter must be documented in the
client record.
There are two types of family planning encounters at Title X service sites: (1) family planning encounters
with a Clinical Services Provider and (2) family planning encounters with an Other Services Provider.
The type of family planning provider who renders the care, regardless of the services rendered,
determines the type of family planning encounter. Although a client may meet with both Clinical and
Other Services Providers during an encounter, the provider with the highest level of training who takes
ultimate responsibility for the client’s clinical or non-clinical assessment and care during the visit is
credited with the encounter.
FAMILY PLANNING ENCOUNTER WITH A CLINICAL SERVICES PROVIDER – A face-to-face, documented

encounter between a family planning client and a Clinical Services Provider that takes place in a Title
X service site.
FAMILY PLANNING ENCOUNTER WITH AN OTHER SERVICES PROVIDER – A face-to-face, documented

FAMILY PLANNING SERVICE SITE
A family planning service site refers to an established unit where grantee or delegate agency staff provide
Title X services (clinical, counseling, educational, or referral) that comply with the Title X Program
Guidelines, and where at least some of the encounters between the family planning providers and the
individuals served meet the requirements of a family planning encounter. Established units include
clinics, hospital outpatient departments, homeless shelters, detention and correctional facilities, and other
locations where Title X agency staff provide these family planning services. Service sites may also
include equipped mobile vans or schools.

CLIENT RECORDS
Title X projects must establish a medical record for every client who obtains clinical services or other
screening or laboratory services (e.g., blood pressure check, urine-based pregnancy or STD test). The
medical record contains personal data; a medical history; physical exam data; laboratory test orders,
results, and followup; treatment and special instructions; scheduled revisits; informed consent forms;
documentation of refusal of services; and information on allergies and untoward reactions to identified
drugs. The medical record also contains clinical findings; diagnostic and therapeutic orders; and
documentation of continuing care, referral, and followup. The medical record allows for entries by
counseling and social service staff. The medical record is a confidential record, accessible only to
authorized staff and secured by lock when not in use. The client medical record must contain sufficient
information to identify the client, indicate where and how the client can be contacted, justify the clinical
impression or diagnosis, and warrant the treatment and end results.
If a family planning user receives no clinical services, the provider still must establish a client record that
enables the site to complete the required FPAR data reporting. Like a medical record, this client record
must contain sufficient information to identify the client, indicate where and how the client can be
contacted, and fully document the encounter. This record is confidential, accessible only to authorized
staff, and secured by lock when not in use.

QUESTIONS ABOUT FPAR TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
1. QUESTION – Can a client have more than one family planning encounter during a single family

planning visit?
ANSWER – A client may have only one family planning encounter per visit. In the family planning

services setting, the term “encounter” is synonymous with “visit.” Although a client may meet with
both Clinical and Other Services Providers during an encounter, the encounter is credited to the
provider with the highest level of training who takes ultimate responsibility for the client’s clinical or
non-clinical assessment and care during the visit.
2. QUESTION – If an individual receives gynecological or related preventive health services (e.g., pelvic

exam, Pap test, pregnancy test, STD screening) at a Title X-funded service site, but does not receive
counseling, education, or clinical services aimed at avoiding unintended pregnancy or achieving
intended pregnancy, is the encounter a family planning encounter? Is the client a family planning
user?
ANSWER – If a client is an ongoing family planning user who visits the service site to obtain any type
of family planning or related preventive health services, the encounter is considered a family planning
encounter and the client is considered a family planning user.

If a client of reproductive age is sterilized under the service site’s Title X-funded project, or is an
ongoing Title X user who was sterilized elsewhere but continues to receive gynecological or related
preventive health services from the site, the encounter is considered a family planning encounter and
the agency may continue to count the client as a family planning user.
If a post-menopausal client obtains gynecological or related preventive health services, the encounter
is not a family planning encounter and the client is not a family planning user.
If a client is not an ongoing family planning user and obtains a service that does not include
counseling, education, or clinical services related to achieving intended pregnancy or avoiding
unintended pregnancy, the encounter is not a family planning encounter and the client is not a family
planning user.
Example: A new client who receives STD services, but no counseling, education, or clinical
services aimed at avoiding an unintended pregnancy or achieving an intended pregnancy, is not a
family planning user, and the encounter is not a family planning encounter. If, in addition to STD
testing, this same client receives condoms or counseling about using condoms to prevent STD
transmission, but does not receive counseling, education, or clinical services aimed at avoiding an
unintended pregnancy, the client is not a family planning user and the encounter is not a family
planning encounter.
3. QUESTION – If a clinic aide or nurse is trained and authorized to give contraceptive injections (e.g.,

Depo-Provera), should an agency report the encounter as an encounter with a Clinical Services
Provider?
ANSWER – No. For purposes of reporting on the FPAR, a clinic aide is classified as an Other Services
Provider even though he or she may be trained and authorized to give contraceptive injections. Only
advanced practice nurses (certified nurse midwife or nurse practitioner) or registered nurses with an
expanded scope of practice who are trained and permitted by state-specific regulations to perform all
aspects of the user (male and female) physical assessment as described in the Program Guidelines

2. QUESTION – If Title X services are provided at a clinic and two non-clinic service sites, should the

grantee report one or three sites as the total number of service sites supported by the Title X
grant?
ANSWER – For purposes of FPAR reporting, the grantee should count and report any established

unit, clinic, or non-clinic site where staff provide Title X services and where at least some of the
encounters between the family planning providers and the individuals served meet the
requirements of a family planning encounter. Refer to the definition of a “Family Planning
Service Site” on page 8. OPA assumes that each of the sites reported in the Grantee Profile
contributes data to the grantee’s FPAR. If all three sites in this example contribute data to the
FPAR, the grantee should include these three service sites in the total number of sites reported on
the Grantee Profile Cover Sheet.

FAMILY PLANNING USER DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE
Data reported in Tables 1 through 3 allow program administrators to monitor access to and use of Title X
services among the diverse population these projects aim to serve. These FPAR tables describe the
demographic characteristics of family planning users, including the distribution of users by age group,
sex, ethnicity, and race.
The numbers reported in Table 1, Row 10, serve as consistency checkpoints in subsequent FPAR tables.
The values in these tables are identified with unique, double-letter identifiers (AA, BB, and CC).

INSTRUCTIONS
TABLE 1 – Report the unduplicated number of family planning users by age group and sex.
TABLE 2 – Report the unduplicated number of female family planning users by race and ethnicity.
TABLE 3 – Report the unduplicated number of male family planning users by race and ethnicity.

TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
AGE GROUP – Categorize family planning users based on their age as of June 30 of the reporting period.
RACE AND ETHNICITY – The categories for reporting ethnicity and race in the FPAR conform to the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) 1997 Revisions to the Standards for the Classification of Federal
Data on Race and Ethnicity 6 and are used by other HHS programs and compilers of such national data
sets as the National Survey of Family Growth. If an agency wants to collect data for ethnicity or race
subcategories, the agency must be able to aggregate the data reported into the OMB minimum standard
set of ethnicity and race categories.

OMB encourages self-identification of race. When respondents are allowed to self-identify or self-report
their race, agencies should adopt a method that allows respondents to mark or select more than one of the
five minimum race categories. Appendix A to this form provides general guidance and a list of resources
regarding collection of multi-race responses.
The two minimum OMB categories for reporting ethnicity are as follows:
HISPANIC OR LATINO (ALL RACES) – A person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central
American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race.
NOT HISPANIC OR LATINO (ALL RACES) – A person not of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or

Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race.
The five minimum categories for reporting race are as follows:
AMERICAN INDIAN OR ALASKA NATIVE – A person having origins in any of the original peoples of North

and South America (including Central America), and who maintains tribal affiliation or community
attachment.

ASIAN – A person having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, or the
Indian subcontinent including, for example, Cambodia, China, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia,
Pakistan, the Philippine Islands, Thailand, and Vietnam.
BLACK OR AFRICAN AMERICAN – A person having origins in any of the black racial groups of Africa.
NATIVE HAWAIIAN OR OTHER PACIFIC ISLANDER – A person having origins in any of the original peoples

of Hawaii, Guam, Samoa, or other Pacific islands.
WHITE – A person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North
Africa.

QUESTIONS ABOUT TABLES 1 TO 3
1. QUESTION – Are Tables 1 through 3 different from the previous FPAR?
ANSWER – No. There are no changes to Tables 1 through 3.
2. QUESTION – What if a client self-identifies as Hispanic or Latino, but was born in the United

States?
ANSWER – Report as Hispanic or Latino family planning users of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican,
South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin, including those Hispanic or Latino
users who were born in the United States.
3. QUESTION – Should clients from Brazil or Haiti or who are of Brazilian or Haitian descent be

classified as Hispanic or Latino?
ANSWER – All clients who self-identify as Hispanic or Latino should be classified as Hispanic or
Latino regardless of country of origin. Clients who identify solely as Brazilian or Haitian should
not be classified as Hispanic or Latino.
4. QUESTION – What if a client does not self-identify with any of the OMB minimum standard race

categories?
ANSWER – According to the 1997 OMB guidance, all races are represented in Tables 2 and 3, and
technically every client should be included in one of these categories. Nevertheless, a client may
not self-identify with any of the OMB race categories or may refuse to report his or her race.
Providers must respect a client’s right to refuse to report his or her race or to self-identify with
any of the race categories. Providers may wish to include the definition of each race category on
their intake forms (if space and formatting permit) and to familiarize themselves with the OMB
definitions for each race category so they can assist clients who have questions. Grantees should
report the number of users with missing or unknown race information in the “unknown/not
reported” race category.

Hispanic or Latino clients account for a high proportion of family planning users for whom race
data are unknown or not reported. The structure of Tables 2 and 3 allows OPA to identify the
numbers of female and male Hispanic or Latino clients that do not self-identify with any of the
OMB race categories.

5. QUESTION – What if a client self-identifies with more than one of the five minimum OMB race

categories?
ANSWER – According to the 1997 OMB guidance, when self-identification is used, the data
collection method should allow clients to self-report more than one race. A single “multiracial”
category should not appear as an option on the intake form. At a minimum, the client intake form
should list the five OMB race categories, and clients should be instructed to check or select “one
or more” or “all that apply.” Report clients who self-identify with two or more races in Row 6 of
Table 2 (female users) or Table 3 (male users).
Appendix A to this form provides general guidelines and a sample question for collecting multirace responses. Please note that the information in Appendix A is not comprehensive and serves
only to highlight important considerations and ideas for handling multi-race response. Grantees
interested in issues surrounding collection of race data should consult the resource list in
Appendix A.

FAMILY PLANNING USER ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL PROFILE
The data reported in Tables 4 through 6 provide OPA with information on key social and economic
characteristics of individuals who receive family planning and related preventive health care in Title Xfunded service sites. OPA uses these data to monitor the program’s role in supporting the health care
safety net for individuals who confront financial or sociocultural barriers to care due to low income, lack
of health insurance, or limited English proficiency (LEP). In addition, OPA uses these data to assess the
program’s compliance with legislative or regulatory mandates, including priority care to individuals who
are low-income and ensuring meaningful access to clients with LEP. 7

INSTRUCTIONS
TABLE 4 – Report the unduplicated number of family planning users by income level.
TABLE 5 – Report the unduplicated number of family planning users by their principal health

insurance coverage status.
TABLE 6 – Report the unduplicated number of family planning users with LEP.

TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
INCOME LEVEL AS A PERCENTAGE OF THE HHS POVERTY GUIDELINES – Grantees are required to collect

family income data from all users in order to determine charges based on the schedule of discounts. 8 In
determining a user’s family income, agencies should refer to the poverty guidelines updated periodically
in the Federal Register by HHS under the authority of 42 USC 9902(2). 9 Report the unduplicated number
of users by income level, using the most current income information available. For additional guidance,
see OPA Program Instruction Series documents OPA 08-1: Verification of Income for Title X Clients and
OPA 97-1: Fees and Charges to Title X Low-Income Clients and Teenagers (Revised), which are
available on the OPA Website at http://www.hhs.gov/opa/title-x-family-planning/title-x-policies/programinstructions/.
PRINCIPAL HEALTH INSURANCE COVERING PRIMARY MEDICAL CARE – Refers to public and private health
insurance plans that provide a broad set of primary medical care benefits to enrolled individuals.
Report the most current health insurance coverage information available for the client even though he or
she may not have used this health insurance to pay for family planning services received during his or her
last encounter. For individuals who have coverage under more than one health plan, principal insurance
is defined as the insurance plan that the agency would bill first (i.e., primary) if a claim were to be filed.

OMB No. 0990-0221
Exp. Date XX/XX/2017

Categories of health insurance covering primary medical care include public and private sources of
coverage.
PUBLIC HEALTH INSURANCE COVERING PRIMARY MEDICAL CARE – Refers to federal, state, or local
government health insurance programs that provide a broad set of primary medical care benefits
for eligible individuals. Examples of such programs include Medicaid (both regular and managed
care), Medicare, the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and other state or local
government programs that provide a broad set of benefits (e.g., Washington’s Basic Health or
Massachusetts’s Commonwealth Care plans). Also included are public-paid or public-subsidized
private insurance programs.
PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE COVERING PRIMARY MEDICAL CARE – Refers to health insurance coverage
through an employer, union, or direct purchase that provides a broad set of primary medical care
benefits for the enrolled individual (beneficiary or dependent). Private insurance includes insurance
purchased for public employees or retirees or military personnel and their dependents (e.g.,
TRICARE or CHAMPVA).
UNINSURED – Refers to clients who do not have a public or private health insurance plan that covers
broad, primary medical care benefits. Clients whose services are subsidized through state or local
indigent care programs, or clients insured through the Indian Health Service who obtain care in a nonparticipating facility, are considered uninsured.
LIMITED ENGLISH PROFICIENT (LEP) USERS – Refers to family planning users who do not speak English as

their primary language and who have a limited ability to read, write, speak, or understand English.7
Because of their limited English proficiency, LEP users derive little benefit from Title X services and
information provided in English. In Table 6, report the unduplicated number of family planning users who
required language assistance services (interpretation or translation) to optimize their use of Title X
services. Include as LEP any user who received Title X services from bilingual staff in the user’s
preferred non-English language, who was assisted by a competent agency or contracted interpreter, or
who opted to use a family member or friend as an interpreter after refusing the provider’s offer of free
language assistance services. Service providers should consult the Revised HHS LEP Guidance7 for
further information about identifying LEP individuals and complying with language assistance
requirements. Unless they are also LEP, do not include users who are visually or hearing impaired or
have other disabilities.

QUESTIONS ABOUT TABLES 4 TO 6
1. QUESTION – Are Tables 4 through 6 different from the previous FPAR?
ANSWER – There are no changes to Table 4.

In Table 5, OPA corrected the definition of private health insurance to include plans for military
personnel and their dependents (e.g., TRICARE or CHAMPVA). In addition, OPA corrected the
definition of public health insurance to include state or local government programs (e.g.,
Washington’s Basic Health, Massachusetts’s Commonwealth Care), including public-paid or
public-subsidized health plans.
In Table 6, OPA included two additional rows: one row for reporting the unduplicated number of
users who are not LEP and one row for reporting the unduplicated number of users with an
unknown or not reported LEP status.
QUESTION – If a client has health insurance that covers a broad set of primary medical care
benefits, including some or all family planning services, but he or she chooses not to use his or
her health insurance plan to pay for some or all of the cost of services, how should an agency
Title X Family Planning Annual Report
– 22 –

Form Approved
OMB No. 0990-0221
Exp. Date XX/XX/2017

classify this client for purposes of Table 5 reporting?
ANSWER – Although an insured client may elect not to use his or her health insurance to pay for

services, he or she is considered insured and should be reported in either Row 1 or Row 2 of the
table according to the type of health insurance coverage (public or private) that he or she has.
2. QUESTION – Are Title X agencies required to verify client health insurance status?
ANSWER – No. The information required to complete Table 5 is based on clients’ self-reported
insurance coverage. However, as stipulated in the program regulations (see 42 CFR Part
59.5(a)(9)),4 service providers are required to bill all third parties authorized or legally obligated
to pay for services and to make reasonable efforts to collect charges without jeopardizing client
confidentiality.
3. QUESTION – How do I classify a client who has coverage for a specific type of care or health

condition—for example, dental services or expanded Medicaid coverage under the Breast and
Cervical Cancer Prevention and Treatment Act of 2000—but has no health insurance that
provides a broad set of primary medical care benefits?
ANSWER – Users who do not have a health insurance plan that provides a broad set of primary
medical care benefits, even though they may have coverage for a specific condition, are
considered uninsured.
4. QUESTION – If a client’s services are paid by a state’s Medicaid family planning expansion

program (i.e., waiver demonstration project or State Plan Amendment [SPA]), is he or she
considered insured for purposes of Table 5?
ANSWER – A client whose services are paid by a Medicaid family planning expansion is

considered uninsured if he or she has no coverage under another public or private insurance
plan that covers a broad set of primary medical care benefits. A Medicaid family planning
expansion program that covers only family planning services does not cover a “broad set of
primary medical care benefits.”
A client whose services are paid by a Medicaid family planning expansion is considered insured
if he or she has a public or private insurance plan that covers a broad set of primary medical
care benefits.
5. QUESTION – In Table 6, should a user be reported as LEP if he or she receives care from a

bilingual provider in his or her preferred, non-English language or if he or she receives language
assistance from a trained (agency, contracted, or telephonic) or informal (friend or family
member) interpreter?
ANSWER – In Table 6, report the number of users who are best served in a language other than

English, including clients who received care from bilingual providers in their preferred, nonEnglish language or received language assistance from trained or informal interpreters.
Confidentiality, privacy, conflicts of interest, and competence as medical services interpreters are
several limitations of using family members or friends as interpreters in the Title X clinic setting.
While in some cases an LEP client may feel more comfortable when a trusted family member or
friend acts as an interpreter, the family member or friend may not be competent to provide quality
and accurate interpretations, particularly if the service provided is complex or not of a routine

nature. If a client opts to provide his or her own interpreter, and the service provider determines at
any point during the service that the client’s interpreter is not competent in this role, the service
provider should obtain the services of a competent interpreter.7

FAMILY PLANNING METHOD USE
Title X projects are required to provide a broad range of acceptable and effective, medically approved
family planning methods and services.4 Tables 7 and 8 provide sex- and age-specific information on the
types of family planning methods that female and male clients use to prevent unintended pregnancy. In
addition, the tables provide information on the numbers of female and male clients who reported using no
method, including the reason for nonuse.
Information on method use by age group for female (Table 7) and male (Table 8) users allows OPA to
track patterns in method use over time at the state, regional, and national levels. In addition, these data
allow OPA to examine the extent to which Title X providers contribute to increased access to and use of
newer family planning technologies and assess the program’s contribution to national health objectives
(i.e., Healthy People) for family planning and disease prevention. These data also permit OPA to compare
the data from Title X clinics with other sources of information, including the National Survey of Family
Growth.

INSTRUCTIONS
TABLE 7 – Report the unduplicated number of female family planning users by primary method and

age group.
TABLE 8 – Report the unduplicated number of male family planning users by primary method and age

group.

TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
AGE GROUP – Use the client’s age as of June 30 of the reporting period.
PRIMARY METHOD OF FAMILY PLANNING – The primary method of family planning is the user’s method—

adopted or continued—at the time of exit from his or her last encounter in the reporting period. If the user
reports that he or she is using more than one family planning method, report the most effective one as the
primary method. Family planning methods include the following:
FEMALE STERILIZATION – In Table 7, report the number of female users who rely on female

sterilization as their primary family planning method. Female sterilization refers to a contraceptive
surgical (tubal ligation) or non-surgical (implant) procedure performed on a female user in the current
or any previous reporting period.
INTRAUTERINE DEVICE OR SYSTEM (IUD/IUS) – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use a
long-term hormonal or other type of intrauterine device (IUD) or system (IUS) as their primary
family planning method.
HORMONAL IMPLANT – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use a long-term, subdermal

hormonal implant as their primary family planning method.
1- MONTH HORMONAL INJECTION – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use 1-month

injectable hormonal contraception as their primary family planning method.
3- MONTH HORMONAL INJECTION – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use 3-month

injectable hormonal contraception as their primary family planning method.

ORAL CONTRACEPTIVE – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use any oral contraceptive,

including combination and progestin-only (“mini-pills”) formulations, as their primary family
planning method.
CONTRACEPTIVE PATCH – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use a transdermal

contraceptive patch as their primary family planning method.
VAGINAL RING – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use a hormonal vaginal ring as
their primary family planning method.
CERVICAL CAP OR DIAPHRAGM – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use a cervical cap

or diaphragm (with or without spermicidal jelly or cream) as their primary family planning method.
CONTRACEPTIVE SPONGE – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use a contraceptive
sponge as their primary family planning method.
FEMALE CONDOM – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use female condoms (with or

without spermicidal foam or film) as their primary family planning method.
SPERMICIDE (USED ALONE) – In Table 7, report the number of female users who use only spermicidal
jelly, cream, foam, or film (i.e., not in conjunction with another method of contraception) as their
primary family planning method.
FERTILITY AWARENESS METHOD (FAM) OR LACTATIONAL AMENORRHEA METHOD (LAM) – Fertility
awareness methods (FAMs) refer to family planning methods that rely on identifying the fertile days
in each menstrual cycle when intercourse is most likely to result in a pregnancy. FAMs include
Standard Days, Calendar Rhythm, TwoDay, Billings Ovulation, and SymptoThermal methods. The
Lactational Amenorrhea Method (LAM) is the proactive application of exclusive breastfeeding during
lactational amenorrhea for the first 6 months after delivery. To be effective, LAM requires full (i.e.,
no other liquid or solid given to infant) or nearly full (i.e., infrequent supplementation in small
amounts, but not by bottle) breastfeeding. 10 In Table 7, report the number of female users who use
one or a combination of the FAMs listed above or who rely on LAM as their primary family planning
method. In Table 8, Row 3, report male users who rely on a FAM as their primary method. Report
male users who rely on LAM as their primary method in Table 8, Row 6, “Rely on female
method(s).”
ABSTINENCE – In Tables 7 and 8, report the number of female and male users, respectively, who rely
on abstinence as their primary family planning method or who are not currently sexually active and
therefore not using contraception. For purposes of FPAR reporting, abstinence is defined as refraining
from oral, vaginal, and anal intercourse. 11
WITHDRAWAL AND OTHER METHODS – In Tables 7 and 8, report the number of female and male users,

respectively, who use withdrawal or other methods not listed in the tables as their primary family
planning method.
METHOD UNKNOWN OR NOT REPORTED – In Tables 7 and 8, report the number of female and male

users, respectively, for whom the primary family planning method at exit from the last family

NO METHOD–[PARTNER] PREGNANT OR SEEKING PREGNANCY – In Tables 7 and 8, report the number of

female and male users, respectively, who are not using any family planning method because they
(Table 7) or their partners (Table 8) are pregnant or seeking pregnancy.
NO METHOD–OTHER REASON – In Tables 7 and 8, report the number of female and male users,

respectively, who are not using any family planning method to avoid pregnancy due to reasons other
than pregnancy or seeking pregnancy, including if either partner is sterile without having been
sterilized surgically, if either partner has had a non-contraceptive surgical procedure that has rendered
him or her unable to conceive or impregnate, or if the user has a sexual partner of the same sex.
VASECTOMY – Refers to conventional incisional or no-scalpel vasectomy performed on a male user, or

the male partner of a female user, in the current or any previous reporting period. In Table 7, report
the number of female users who rely on vasectomy as their (partner’s) primary family planning
method. In Table 8, report the number of male users on whom a vasectomy was performed in the
current or any previous reporting period.
M ALE CONDOM – In Table 7, report the number of female users who rely on their sexual partner to use

male condoms (with or without spermicidal foam or film) as their primary family planning method. In
Table 8, report the number of male users who use male condoms (with or without spermicidal foam
or film) as their primary family planning method.
RELY ON FEMALE METHOD(S) – In Table 8, report the number of male family planning users who rely
on their female partners’ family planning methods as their primary methods. “Female” contraceptive
methods include female sterilization, IUD/IUS, hormonal implants, 1- and 3-month hormonal
injections, oral contraceptives, the contraceptive patch, the vaginal ring, cervical cap or diaphragm,
the contraceptive sponge, female condoms, LAM, and spermicides.

QUESTIONS ABOUT TABLES 7 AND 8
1. QUESTION – Are Tables 7 and 8 different from the previous FPAR?
ANSWER – No. OPA has made no substantive changes to Tables 7 or 8. However, OPA has
clarified instructions for reporting some methods. In Table 7, OPA changed the Row 2 heading
from “IUD” to “IUD or IUS.” In addition, for both Tables 7 and 8, OPA added an explanation of
the Lactational Amenorrhea Method (LAM) to the definition of the “FAM or LAM” reporting
category and added users having a sexual partner of the same sex to the definition of the “No
method–Other reason” reporting category.
2. QUESTION – If family planning users, male or female, rely on their partners’ family planning

method for pregnancy prevention, how should the grantee report this information in Table 7 or 8?
ANSWER – If a female family planning user relies on a male family planning method (e.g.,

vasectomy or male condoms) for pregnancy prevention, report this user in Table 7, Row 16 or 17.
If the female user relies on withdrawal, report this user in Table 7, Row 15 (“Withdrawal or other
method”).
If a male family planning user relies on a “female” family planning method for pregnancy
prevention (i.e., female sterilization, IUD, hormonal implant, 1- or 3-month hormonal injection,
oral contraceptives, contraceptive patch, vaginal ring, cervical cap or diaphragm, contraceptive
sponge, female condoms, LAM, or spermicides), report this user in Table 8, Row 6.

If a male client and his female sexual partner rely on pills (for pregnancy prevention) and
condoms (for STD or pregnancy prevention), record the method that is most effective in terms of
pregnancy prevention (i.e., pills). In this example, the male user’s family planning method would
be “Rely on female method(s)” (Table 8, Row 6). If this same male client were to report that he
relies on condoms for pregnancy prevention because of his partner’s inconsistent pill use, report
male condoms (Table 8, Row 2) as this client’s primary contraceptive method.
3. QUESTION – How should a grantee report a user who exits the encounter with no method because

he or she, or his or her sexual partner, has had a non-contraceptive surgical procedure that has
rendered one of the two sexual partners unable to conceive or impregnate?
ANSWER – Report female users in Table 7, Row 19 (“No method–Other reason”) and male users
in Table 8, Row 8 (“No method–Other reason”).

CERVICAL AND BREAST CANCER SCREENING
Tables 9 and 10 provide information on the cervical and breast cancer screening activities that are
performed within the scope of a grantee’s approved Title X project. Data from these tables permit OPA to
monitor compliance with legislative mandates, achievement of program performance objectives, and
adoption of cervical and breast cancer screening recommendations established by federal agencies and
professional medical organizations. In addition, OPA uses these data to assess the number of abnormal
results that require further followup and to assess the program’s contribution to national health objectives
(i.e., Healthy People) related to early cancer detection and health promotion.

INSTRUCTIONS
TABLE 9 –

Report the following information on cervical cancer screening activities. Refer to the
chart in Exhibit 1 for reporting information on Pap test results:
• Unduplicated number of female users who obtained a Pap test
• Number of Pap tests performed
• Number of Pap tests with an ASC or higher result according to the 2001 Bethesda
System 12 (see Exhibit 1). ASC or higher results include ASC-US; ASC-H; LSIL;
HSIL; squamous cell carcinoma; AGC; AGC, favor neoplastic; AIS;
adenocarcinoma; or other (e.g., endometrial cells in a woman ≥ 40 years of age)
• Number of Pap tests with an HSIL or higher result according to the 2001 Bethesda
System (see Exhibit 1). HSIL or higher results include HSIL; squamous cell
carcinoma; AGC; AGC, favor neoplastic; AIS; adenocarcinoma; or other (e.g.,
endometrial cells in a woman ≥ 40 years of age)

TABLE 10 – Report the following information on breast cancer screening and referral activities:

•
•

Unduplicated number of female users receiving a clinical breast exam (CBE)
Unduplicated number of female users referred for further evaluation based on CBE
results

TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
TESTS – Report Pap tests and CBEs performed during the reporting period that are provided within the

scope of the agency’s Title X project.
ATYPICAL SQUAMOUS CELLS (ASC) – ASC refers to cytological changes that are suggestive of a squamous
intraepithelial lesion. The 2001 Bethesda System (see Exhibit 1) subdivides atypical squamous cells into
two categories:

•

Atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) – ASC-US refers to cytological
changes that are suggestive of a squamous intraepithelial lesion, but lack criteria for a definitive
interpretation. 13

•

Atypical squamous cells, cannot exclude HSIL (ASC-H) – ASC-H refers to cytological changes that
are suggestive of a high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL), but lack criteria for a definitive
interpretation.13

LOW-GRADE SQUAMOUS INTRAEPITHELIAL LESIONS (LSIL) – LSIL refers to low-grade squamous

intraepithelial lesions encompassing human papillomavirus, mild dysplasia, and cervical intraepithelial
neoplasia (CIN) 1.13
HIGH-GRADE SQUAMOUS INTRAEPITHELIAL LESIONS (HSIL) – HSIL refers to high-grade squamous

intraepithelial lesions encompassing moderate and severe dysplasia, carcinoma in situ, CIN 2, and
CIN 3.13
ATYPICAL GLANDULAR CELLS (AGC) – AGC refers to glandular cell abnormalities, including

adenocarcinoma. The 2001 Bethesda System (see Exhibit 1) classifies AGC less severe than
adenocarcinoma into three categories: 14
•

Atypical glandular cells, either endocervical, endometrial, or “glandular cells” not otherwise specified

•

Atypical glandular cells, either endocervical or “glandular cells” favor neoplasia (AGC, favor
neoplastic)

•

Endocervical adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS)

QUESTIONS ABOUT TABLES 9 AND 10
1. QUESTION – Are Tables 9 and 10 different from the previous FPAR?
ANSWER – There are no changes to Table 9. In accordance with recommended screening
practices, in Table 10 OPA has decided to collect clinical breast exam and referral data for female
users only.
2. QUESTION – How should grantees count and report a CBE that is part of a “bundled” billing or

service code (e.g., as part of a comprehensive exam)?
ANSWER – Grantees who do not have a count of the actual number of CBEs performed because of
the structure of the “bundled” billing or service code should report the estimated number of CBEs
performed in Table 10, Row 1, and provide a brief explanation about the estimated figure in the
Table 10 “Note” field.

SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASE (STD) SCREENING
Tables 11 and 12 provide information on STD testing activities that are performed within the scope of a
grantee’s approved Title X project. Data from these tables permit OPA to monitor compliance with
legislative mandate, achievement of program performance objectives, and adoption of STD and HIV
screening recommendations established by federal agencies and professional medical organizations. In
addition, OPA uses these data to assess the program’s contribution to national health objectives (i.e.,
Healthy People) for disease prevention (e.g., STDs and HIV) and health promotion.

INSTRUCTIONS

3. QUESTION – In Table 12, Row 3, should grantees count and report confirmatory HIV tests

separately from initial HIV tests (i.e., one versus two tests)?
ANSWER – To the extent possible, a grantee should report all HIV tests—initial and

confirmatory—performed within the scope of their Title X projects, including HIV tests
performed on site and tests for which a specimen is collected on site and analyzed off site (e.g.,
laboratory). If an offsite laboratory performs a confirmatory test using the same specimen
obtained for the initial test, grantees should not count the confirmatory test unless (1) the provider
has billing or other transaction records to document that the laboratory performed a
second/confirmatory test and (2) compiling and reporting confirmatory test counts do not pose an
undue burden. Grantees should use the Table 12 “Note” field to explain if HIV test counts
exclude confirmatory tests.
4. QUESTION – Should grantees include preliminary positive rapid HIV tests in the total number of

positive HIV test results reported in Table 12, Row 4?
ANSWER – No. The total number of confidential positive HIV tests should include only the
number of standard (i.e., not rapid) HIV tests with a positive result and the number of preliminary
positive rapid HIV tests confirmed to be positive.

FAMILY PLANNING ENCOUNTERS AND CLINICAL SERVICES
PROVIDER STAFFING
Table 13 provides OPA with information on the number and type of family planning encounters, and the
use of Clinical Services Providers to deliver Title X-funded family planning and related preventive health
services.

INSTRUCTIONS
TABLE 13 – Report the following provider staffing and encounter data:

•

•
•

Number of full-time equivalent (FTE) family planning Clinical Services Providers,
by type of provider
Number of family planning encounters with Clinical Services Providers
Number of family planning encounters with Other Services Providers

TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
FAMILY PLANNING PROVIDER – A family planning provider is the individual who assumes primary

responsibility for assessing a client and documenting services in the client record. Providers include those
agency staff that exercise independent judgment as to the services rendered to the client during an
encounter. Two general types of providers deliver Title X family planning services: Clinical Services
Providers and Other Services Providers.
CLINICAL SERVICES PROVIDERS – Include physicians (family and general practitioners, specialists),
physician assistants, nurse practitioners, certified nurse midwives, and registered nurses with an
expanded scope of practice who are trained and permitted by state-specific regulations to perform all
aspects of the user (male and female) physical assessment, as described in the Program Guidelines.
Clinical Services Providers are able to offer client education, counseling, referral, followup, and
clinical services (physical assessment, treatment, and management) relating to a client’s proposed or
adopted method of contraception, general reproductive health, or infertility treatment, in accordance
with the Program Guidelines.
OTHER SERVICES PROVIDERS – Include other agency staff (e.g., registered nurses, public health nurses,
licensed vocational or licensed practical nurses, certified nurse assistants, health educators, social
workers, or clinic aides) that offer client education, counseling, referral, or followup services relating
to the client’s proposed or adopted method of contraception, general reproductive health, or infertility
treatment, as described in the Program Guidelines. Other Services Providers may also perform or
obtain samples for routine laboratory tests (e.g., urine, pregnancy, STD, and cholesterol and lipid
analysis), give contraceptive injections (e.g., Depo-Provera), and perform routine clinical procedures
that may include some aspects of the user physical assessment (e.g., blood pressure evaluation), in
accordance with the Program Guidelines.
FAMILY PLANNING ENCOUNTER – A family planning encounter is a documented, face-to-face contact

between an individual and a family planning provider that takes place in a Title X service site. The
purpose of a family planning encounter—whether clinical or non-clinical—is to provide family planning
and related preventive health services to female and male clients who want to avoid unintended
pregnancies or achieve intended pregnancies. To be counted for purposes of the FPAR, a written record of
the services provided during the family planning encounter must be documented in the client record.
Title X Family Planning Annual Report
– 45 –

Form Approved
OMB No. 0990-0221
Exp. Date XX/XX/2017

There are two types of family planning encounters at Title X service sites: (1) family planning encounters
with a Clinical Services Provider and (2) family planning encounters with an Other Services Provider.
The type of family planning provider who renders the care, regardless of the services rendered,
determines the type of family planning encounter. Although a client may meet with both Clinical and
Other Services Providers during an encounter, the provider with the highest level of training who takes
ultimate responsibility for the client’s clinical or non-clinical assessment and care during the visit is
credited with the encounter.
FAMILY PLANNING ENCOUNTER WITH A CLINICAL SERVICES PROVIDER – A face-to-face, documented

encounter between a family planning client and a Clinical Services Provider that takes place in a
Title X service site.
FAMILY PLANNING ENCOUNTER WITH AN OTHER SERVICES PROVIDER – A face-to-face, documented

encounter between a family planning client and an Other Services Provider that takes place in a Title
X service site.
Laboratory tests and related counseling and education, in and of themselves, do not constitute a family
planning encounter unless there is face-to-face contact between the client and provider, the provider
documents the encounter in the client’s record, and the tests are accompanied by family planning
counseling or education.
FULL-TIME EQUIVALENT (FTE) – For each type of Clinical Services Provider, report the time in FTEs that
these providers are involved in the direct provision of Title X-funded services (i.e., engaged in a family
planning encounter). A full-time equivalent (FTE) of 1.0 describes staff who, individually or as a group,
work the equivalent of full time for one year. Each agency defines the number of hours for “full-time”
work and may define it differently for different positions. For example, a physician hired as a full-time
employee (i.e., 1.0 FTE) may be required to work only 36 hours per week. FTEs for positions with
different time expectations, especially clinicians, should be calculated based on the organization’s
established base for that position. In addition, FTEs are adjusted for part-time work or for part-year
employment. In an organization that has a 40-hour workweek (2,080 hours/year), a person who works 20
hours per week (i.e., 50% time) is reported as “0.5 FTE.” Thus, a physician working 36 hours per week
would be considered 1.0 FTE, and a physician working 18 hours per week would be considered 0.5 FTE,
regardless of whether other employees work 40-hour weeks. FTE is also based on the part of the year that
the employee works. An employee who works full time for four months out of the year would be reported
as “0.33 FTE” (i.e., 4 months divided by 12 months).

QUESTIONS ABOUT TABLE 13
1. QUESTION – Is Table 13 different from the previous FPAR?
ANSWER – No. However, OPA has provided additional guidance for defining and calculating what
full-time equivalent means for Clinical Services Providers.
2. QUESTION – Can a client have more than one family planning encounter during a single family

planning visit?
ANSWER – As noted in the “Terms and Definitions” section of the report, a client may have only
one family planning encounter per visit. In the family planning services setting, the term
“encounter” is synonymous with “visit.” Although a client may meet with both Clinical and Other
Services Providers during an encounter, only one provider is credited with the encounter. The
provider with the highest level of training who takes ultimate responsibility for the client’s
clinical or non-clinical assessment and care during the visit is credited with the encounter.

report the encounter as an encounter with a Clinical Services Provider?
ANSWER – If the nurse providing the injection is a registered nurse with an expanded scope of practice
who is trained and permitted by state-specific regulations to perform all aspects of the user (male and
female) physical assessment as described in the Program Guidelines, then the encounter is an
encounter with a Clinical Services Provider and should be reported in Table 13, Row 1.

However, if the nurse providing the injection is a registered nurse who does not have an expanded
scope of practice or is another type of nurse (e.g., LPN, LVN, or public health nurse), then the
encounter should be reported as an encounter with an Other Services Provider in Table 13, Row 2.
4. QUESTION – If an individual receives gynecological or related preventive health services (e.g., pelvic

If a client of reproductive age is sterilized under the service site’s Title X-funded project, or is an
ongoing Title X user who was sterilized elsewhere but continues to receive gynecological or related
preventive health services from the site, the encounter is considered a family planning encounter and
the agency may continue to count the client as a family planning user.
If a post-menopausal client obtains gynecological or related preventive health services, the encounter
is not a family planning encounter and the client is not a family planning user.
If a client is not an ongoing family planning user and obtains a service that does not include
counseling, education, or clinical services related to achieving intended pregnancy or avoiding
unintended pregnancy, the encounter is not a family planning encounter and the client is not a family
planning user.
Example: A new client who receives STD services—but no counseling, education, or clinical
services aimed at avoiding an unintended pregnancy or achieving an intended pregnancy—is not
a family planning user and the encounter is not a family planning encounter. If, in addition to
STD testing, this same client receives condoms or counseling about using condoms to prevent
STD transmission but does not receive counseling, education, or clinical services aimed at
avoiding an unintended pregnancy, the client is not a family planning user and the encounter is
not a family planning encounter.

REVENUE REPORT
Title X Section 1001 grantees are required to maintain a financial management system that meets the
standards for grant administration and to document and keep records of all income and expenditures.2, 3
Table 14 identifies the sources and amounts of financial support received during the reporting period that
support activities within the scope of the grantee’s Title X family planning services project (“Title X
project”).

INSTRUCTIONS
TABLE 14 – Report the revenues (i.e., actual cash receipts or drawdown amounts) received during the

reporting period from each funding source to support activities within the scope of the
grantee’s Title X services grant (Section 1001), even if the funds were not expended
during the reporting period. Include (1) all receipts from the Title X services grant;
(2) collections from patients and reimbursements from third parties for services rendered;
and (3) receipts from other sources, including block grants, state and local governments,
and other sources. If the value for a cell is zero, enter “0.” The agency must retain for
audit purposes all worksheets that document how the agency derived the reported
amounts.2, 3 Do not report the monetary value of in-kind contributions as revenue in
Table 14.

TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
TITLE X GRANT – Refers to funds received from the Title X Section 1001 family planning services grant.
Report the amount received (cash receipts or drawdown amounts) during the reporting period from the
Title X services grant. Include base Title X grant funding and other Title X funding for special initiatives
(e.g., HIV integration and male involvement). Do not report the amount of grant funds awarded unless
this figure is the same as the actual cash receipts or drawdown amounts.
PAYMENT FOR SERVICES – Refers to funds collected directly from clients and revenues received from

public and private third party payers (capitated or fee-for-service) for services provided within the scope
of the grantee’s Title X project.
TOTAL CLIENT COLLECTIONS/SELF-PAY – Report the amount collected directly from clients during the
reporting period for services provided within the scope of the grantee’s Title X project.
THIRD-PARTY PAYERS – For each third-party source listed, report the amount received (i.e.,
reimbursed) during the reporting period for services provided within the scope of the grantee’s
Title X project. Only revenue from pre-paid (capitated) managed care arrangements (e.g., capitated
Medicare, Medicaid, and private managed care contracts) should be reported as prepaid. Revenues
received after the date of service, even under managed care arrangements, should be reported as not
prepaid.
MEDICAID/TITLE XIX – Report the amount received from Medicaid (federal and state shares) during

the reporting period for services provided within the scope of the grantee’s Title X project,
regardless of whether the reimbursement was paid directly by Medicaid or through a fiscal
intermediary or a health maintenance organization (HMO). For example, in states with a capitated
Medicaid program (i.e., the grantee has a contract with a private plan like Blue Cross), the payer
is Medicaid, even though the actual payment may come from Blue Cross. Include revenue from

Table 14 “Note” field.
MEDICARE/TITLE XVIII – Report the amount received from Medicare during the reporting period
for services provided within the scope of the grantee’s Title X project, regardless of whether the
reimbursement was paid directly by Medicare or through a fiscal intermediary or an HMO. For
clients enrolled in a capitated Medicare program (i.e., where the grantee has a contract with a
private plan like Blue Cross), the payer is Medicare, even though the actual payment may come
from Blue Cross.
CHILDREN’S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM (SCHIP) – Report the amount of funds received during
the reporting period from CHIP for services provided within the scope of the grantee’s Title X
project. If the grantee is unable to report CHIP revenue separately from Medicaid (Row 3a),
indicate this in the Table 14 “Note” field.
OTHER PUBLIC HEALTH INSURANCE – Report the amount reimbursed by other federal, state, or local
government health insurance programs during the reporting period for services provided within
the scope of the grantee’s Title X project. Examples of other public health insurance programs
include state or local government programs that provide a broad set of benefits (e.g.,
Washington’s Basic Health or Massachusetts’s Commonwealth Care), including public-paid or
public-subsidized private insurance programs.
PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE – Report the amount of funds received from private third-party health
insurance plans during the reporting period for services provided within the scope of the grantee’s
Title X project. Private health insurance include plans obtained through an employer, union, or

personnel and their dependents (e.g., TRICARE or CHAMPVA) that provide a broad set of
primary medical care benefits for the enrolled individual (beneficiary or dependent).
OTHER REVENUE – Refers to revenue received from other sources during the reporting period that
supported services provided within the scope of the grantee’s Title X project. Other revenue sources
include block grants, TANF, state and local governments (e.g., contracts, state and local indigent care

(CDC) (e.g., Infertility Prevention Project) or block grant funds that are awarded to and
distributed by the state. Report these revenues as “Other revenue” and specify their sources.
BUREAU OF PRIMARY HEALTH CARE (BPHC) – Report the amount of revenue received from BPHC
grants (e.g., Section 330) during the reporting period that supported services provided within the
scope of the grantee’s Title X project.
OTHER REVENUE – Report the amount and specify the source of funds received during the
reporting period from other sources that supported services provided within the scope of the
grantee’s Title X project. This may include revenue from such sources as the CDC (infertility,
STD, or HIV prevention; breast and cervical cancer detection), private grants and donations,
fundraising, interest income, or other sources.

QUESTIONS ABOUT TABLE 14
1. QUESTION – Is Table 14 different from the previous FPAR?
ANSWER – Yes. OPA has corrected the instructions for reporting “Other Public” and “Private”
third-party revenue. These corrections reflect similar changes to the insurance coverage
definitions in FPAR Table 5. Grantees should report revenue (reimbursements) from health
insurance for military personnel and their dependents (e.g., TRICARE or CHAMPVA) as
“Private” rather than “Other Public” third-party revenue. In addition, grantees should report as
“Other Public” third-party revenue reimbursements from state or local government programs that
provide a broad set of benefits (e.g., Washington’s Basic Health, Massachusetts’s Commonwealth
Care), including public-paid or public-subsidized private insurance programs. Finally, OPA
changed the Row 3c heading for “State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP)” to
“Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP).”
2. QUESTION – Can a grantee report an estimate of the monetary value of in-kind donations of goods,

services, or other noncash contributions as revenue in Table 14?
ANSWER – No. In Table 14, revenues include actual cash receipts or drawdown amounts only. Do
not report the monetary value of in-kind contributions as revenue in Table 14.

APPENDIX A:
COLLECTING AND TABULATING MULTI-RACE RESPONSES

Background. On October 24, 1997, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued a Policy
Statement on Inclusion of Race and Ethnicity in DHHS Data Collection Activities. 15 This policy requires
the inclusion of racial and ethnic categories in HHS-funded and -sponsored data collection and reporting
systems. Implementation of this policy is intended to help to identify major health conditions of minority
populations, monitor progress in meeting their needs, and ensure nondiscrimination in access to and
provision of appropriate HHS services for various racial and ethnic groups. Although programs that are
directed to minority racial or ethnic populations have exemptions, these programs are encouraged to
collect and report data on subgroups within their target populations.
The HHS inclusion policy refers to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 1997 Revisions to the
Standards for the Classification of Federal Data on Race and Ethnicity, 16 and any subsequent revisions,
as the standard for racial and ethnic reporting categories in HHS-funded programs. The FPAR race and
ethnicity categories comply with the 1997 OMB revised minimum standards.
Reporting more than one race. According to the 1997 OMB revised standards, self-identification is the
preferred means of obtaining information about an individual’s race and ethnicity. When selfidentification is used, Title X-funded agencies should adopt a method that allows users to mark or select
more than one of the five minimum OMB race categories. The OMB guidance includes the following
recommendations for collecting data from individuals who self-identify with more than one race:
•

The method for respondents to report more than one race should take the form of multiple responses
to a single question and not a single “multiracial” category.

•

When a list of races is provided to respondents, the list should not contain a “multiracial” category.

•

Two recommended forms for the instruction accompanying the multiple-response question are “Mark
one or more…” and “Select one or more….”

•

If the criteria for data quality and confidentiality are met, provision should be made to report, at a
minimum, the number of individuals identifying with more than one race. Data producers are
encouraged to provide greater detail about the distribution of multiple responses as long as the detail
can be aggregated to the minimum standard set of race and ethnicity categories.

Agencies should consult with their Regional Program Consultant (RPC) if they have questions about
collecting multiple responses to a single race question. On the following page is a sample question,
designed to be self-administered, for collecting race data. A list of references on this topic is also
included.
