Integrated Planning

Planning for HIV/AIDS services requires attention to diverse service needs and populations. An additional set of factors adds complexity to the planning process: coordination of prevention and care services; multiple public and private payers; and the mix of services provided by multiple Ryan White Parts (programs). Integrated planning activities include care/prevention collaborative planning (e.g., preparation of an epidemiologic profile, sharing of information, joint planning) as well as periodic reviews of cross-Part activities in a given state under the Statewide Coordinated Statement of Need (SCSN).
