The purpose of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part F Dental Reimbursement Program (DRP) is to improve access to oral health care services for low-income people with HIV, and related education and training to dental providers serving people with HIV. Authorized under section 2692(b) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. § 300ff–111(b)), the DRP provides partial reimbursement to eligible dental schools and accredited dental hygiene programs for the unreimbursed costs of oral health care provided to patients with HIV. Eligible institutions may annually apply for reimbursement based on costs incurred in the prior year. Available funds are distributed among all eligible applicants, taking into account the number of patients with HIV served and the extent of unreimbursed care costs relative to other applicants.
