BUDGET LINE ITEM:  HS-TSC (Health Sciences Technology Services Charge)                $$$$

BUDGET JUSTIFICATION:

UC San Diego Health Information Services costs have been included to reflect costs associated with the increased level of security required for all personnel within UC San Diego Health, which includes UC San Diego School of Medicine, Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health and Human Longevity Science, and the hospitals and clinics. These charges are directly attributable and proportionally applied to the individual(s) included in the proposed budget for the project.  

TO BE USED IN THE DETAILED BUDGET JUSTIFICATION:

UC San Diego Health Information Services (IS) provides mandatory Information Technology Services to all Health Sciences faculty and investigators, including costs associated with the increased level of security required for all personnel within UC San Diego Health, which includes UC San Diego School of Medicine, Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health and Human Longevity Science, and the hospitals and clinics. To mitigate the specific risk profile of this highly connected environment, UC San Diego Health Information Services ensures that all PIs to who IS provides services, whether they directly access patient information or not, operate in a highly secure desktop, application, and server environment with dedicated and highly trained support. Charges are based on the percent of FTE working on a grant and are charged on a monthly basis.

These costs are not included in the campus' Facilities & Administration (F&A) rate as an indirect cost. UC San Diego auditors have determined that it is both equitable and consistent with the OMB Circular 2 CFR 200 provisions on cost allocability that the costs be assigned to FTE on grant and contract funds. Accordingly, an allocable portion of these Technology Services costs is included in this proposal as direct project costs.

For questions about the Health Sciences Technology Services Charge please contact Andrew Greaves as well as see our page on Health Sciences Technology Services Charge that includes the current rate and inflation rate for the out years.

BUDGET JUSTIFICATION, OPTION 1:  UC San Diego's F&A rate agreement was signed on May 23, 2018 by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). Our current rate for FY 2022 is 58.00%, until amended.

BUDGET JUSTIFICATION, OPTION 2:  UC San Diego's indirect costs are calculated based on Modified Total Direct Costs (MTDC) as defined in 2 CFR Part 200.68 using Facilities and Administration (F&A) rates approved by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). MTDC is comprised of total direct costs less capital equipment, alterations and renovations, patient care costs, off-campus rent, tuition and fee remission, scholarships and fellowships, participant support costs, costs associated with cloud/shared computing services, and that portion of subcontract costs in excess of $25,000. Additionally, the total amount of subawards to other UC campuses are excluded. Proration is based on the number of days at the applicable rate.

BUDGET LINE ITEM: NGN Charge (Next Generation Network)                                            $$$$

BUDGET JUSTIFICATION:
UC San Diego Information and Technology Services (ITS) charges a flat per month fee for services to provide state-of-the-art technology infrastructure and services to the campus community. These charges are directly attributable and proportionally applied for the individual(s) included in the proposed budget on the project. These costs are not included in the campus' Facilities & Administration (F&A) rate as an indirect cost. UC San Diego auditors have determined that it is both equitable and consistent with the OMB Circular 2 CFR 200 provisions on cost allocability that the costs be assigned to FTE on grant and contract funds. Accordingly, an allocable portion of these NGN costs are included in this budget as direct project costs.
