Abstract:
In 1987, Congress created the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP), to assist low-income and uninsured individuals in purchasing AZT, the anti-HIV drug approved by the federal government. The state receives $3.8 million in federal funding, but contributes about $750,000, far below the national average and far below what is needed to make the program effective.
