  • Title: Clinton's ADAP proposal seen as a 'starting point'.
    Journal: AIDS Policy Law; 1998 Jan 23; 13(1):1, 12. PubMed ID: 11364953.
    Abstract:
    President Clinton proposed an additional $100 million for State-run AIDS drug assistance programs (ADAPs) for fiscal year 1999. AIDS policy advocates acknowledge the budget increase but note that the amount is just a starting point from which to engage Congress and will not be sufficient to meet the growing demand for medicines. Sandra Thurman, White House Office of National AIDS Policy director, explained that this budget increase illustrates the Administration's commitment to eradicating HIV/AIDS. The ADAP Working Group says it will require a $173 million increase to meet the current and projected need. President Clinton's administration is considering a plan to require all States to share the cost of AIDS drug assistance; the ADAP Working Group is asking for a $43.4 million increase in State ADAP spending.
