Grant Description

The purpose of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Part C EIS Program is to provide HIV primary care in the outpatient setting. Applicants must propose to provide a comprehensive continuum of outpatient HIV primary care services in the targeted area including: 1) targeted HIV counseling, testing, and referral; 2) medical evaluation and clinical care; 3) other primary care services; and 4) referrals to other health services. Primary care for persons with HIV disease should start as early in the course of the infection as possible. However, entry into a Part C EIS program may take place at any point in the spectrum of the disease or the patient's lifespan.
