ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS FOR HIV/AIDS PATIENT CARE PROGRAMS

Overview

Definitions

PURPOSE:

The purpose and effect of this amendment will be to decrease the federal poverty level (FPL) from 400% to 300% FPL for the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP). The federal poverty level is used for eligibility purposes for the HIV/AIDS Patient Care Programs to better serve low income persons living with HIV disease. The change is part of the cost containment process to serve the neediest due to an unprecedented demand for services and lack of funding.

SUMMARY:

The proposed revisions decrease the federal poverty level for those persons living with HIV/AIDS accessing ADAP.
