  • Title: Report outlines State-run insurance continuity programs.
    Journal: AIDS Policy Law; 1997 Jul 25; 12(13):9. PubMed ID: 11364518.
    Abstract:
    The National Alliance of State and Territorial AIDS Directors (NASTAD) issued a brief that analyzes States' responses to health insurance continuity programs for people with HIV. The government makes premium payments for individuals who cannot afford to maintain their existing private health insurance in at least 35 States. The insurance continuity programs rely on Federal Ryan White CARE Act or State funds, and are more affordable than covering expenses directly through public programs such as Medicaid or State AIDS drug assistance programs. The NASTAD report provides strategies for developing, administering, and monitoring insurance continuity programs, and includes case studies from key States.
