To be eligible to receive
health and dental care, medications,
and other health-related services
through the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program,
you must
- Be diagnosed with HIV or AIDS
- Have an income too low to pay
for care
- Have no health insurance or not
enough insurance to pay for the
care you need
In some cases, your family members
can receive services through a Ryan
White program focused on women, infants,
children, and youth, even though they
are not diagnosed with HIV.
If you think you or your family members
may be eligible, see the Ryan White Community
map to contact a Ryan White agency
in your area. (The best place to start
might be your State Ryan White Part
B program’s Web site but also
contact other Ryan White agencies
listed on this map). You can also
call your State
HIV/AIDS Hotline and ask them
to refer you to the nearest Ryan White
provider.
The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program is
a U.S. Government program that provides
funds to State and local governments
and agencies that in turn provide
doctor's care, HIV/AIDS medications
and many other services to people
who do not have health insurance or
funds to pay for the HIV care they
need. Ryan White funds cannot be provided
directly to individuals.
