Testing & Care
Ryan White Part A helps people with HIV get care, food, and support. Here's how to find out if you qualify, in plain terms.
To qualify for Ryan White Part A services, you generally need to meet three things:
You have HIV or AIDS
You live in Broward County or Palm Beach County
Your income falls under a certain limit
Broward County residents also need to show proof of their HIV status. Palm Beach County residents need to show income at or below 400% of the Federal Poverty Level.
You don't need insurance to qualify. In fact, Ryan White is meant to be used after any other insurance you have is used up.
A trained eligibility specialist reviews your information and lets you know exactly what you qualify for. You'll need to recertify (prove you still qualify) every six months to keep your services active.
No. Ryan White Part A does not require citizenship. Residency in Broward or Palm Beach County is what matters.
