Friday, May 03, 2013

On May 1, 2013, the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) released a joint announcement regarding the coordination of Medicaid and Ryan White HIV/AIDS programs. The Affordable Care Act and Medicaid expansion present opportunities to increase access to health care for People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH) and to increase the quality of care PLWH receive.  To maximize these opportunities CMS and HRSA will be producing a series of webinars in coming months on topics that impact PLWH, including:

  • Eligibility and enrollment
  • Essential community providers
  • Best practices in managed care
  • Integrated care models in context of HIV/AIDS
