Abstract:

There are around 12,600 HIV cases in the state. The AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) combines federal and state moneys to help pay drug therapy for those lacking insurance or who do not qualify for Medicaid. Currently, around 2,200 patients are served. A concern of the recipients is that legislative funding can be reduced as well as increased.
