The Part B AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) of HRSA's Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) provides HIV/AIDS medications and access to insurance coverage to those who lack insurance and resources. Each State and Territory operates an ADAP program and is responsible for managing the purchase and distribution of medications. Each ADAP determines the medications to offer on their formulary (list of covered drugs). However, all formularies must meet a baseline standard, which is to cover all core classes of antiretroviral therapies. Clinical and income eligibility requirements vary across States/Territories as each ADAP sets its own criteria.
TB and HIV coinfection is very common globally. TB is less commonly seen in the United States. But it can provide a challenge in areas and communities where latent and active infection are seen. HRSA and the CDC have developed guidelines and training tools for clinicians tackling TB in the context of HIV infection.
A patient centered medical home (PCMH) is a health care setting that seeks to deliver care in a culturally and linguistically appropriate manner through a collection of strategies like registries, information technology, health information exchange, and other means. PCMH is an accreditation program that requires compliance with multiple criteria in order to be recognized as such under new health care reform and reimbursement policies.
