North Dakota’s Ryan White Program Part B is a federally funded program that helps people living with HIV get the care and support they need. The program provides access to HIV medical care and treatment, case management, and help paying for important health and support services.
People living with HIV in North Dakota may face challenges when trying to get care. These can include stigma, not having enough nearby providers or services, trouble with transportation, limited financial resources, and difficulty finding affordable housing.
Local Ryan White coordinators are available to help. They guide clients through the system, connect them to care and services, and support them in staying healthy and reaching positive health outcomes.
The AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) is part of the Ryan White Program. It helps cover the cost of HIV-related and other medications, as well as insurance premiums, for people who qualify.
Clients can fill their prescriptions at any retail pharmacy in North Dakota that accepts ND Medicaid. ND ADAP uses an open formulary, which means most medications are covered, with some categories excluded.
