Three-Part Series: Improving Care for People Living with HIV: Opportunities for State Medicaid-Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Collaboration

States play critical roles in ensuring that people living with HIV (PLWH) have access to quality care through their Medicaid and Ryan White HIV/AIDS programs. PLWH can be among the most medically complex individuals covered by state health programs, and their care can cost five-times more than the average Medicaid beneficiary. Given limited resources, state policymakers are working to develop policies and strategies to ensure that care to PLWH is accessible, well-coordinated, and effective.
This three-part series explores policy levers and strategies that states are utilizing to focus limited resources and provide comprehensive and accessible care to PLWH.
