HIV Early Intervention Services (EIS) Program Limited Competitive Service Areas (San Francisco, CA and Columbia, SC)

archived

This competition is open to new organizations proposing to replace the current grantee, and applicants for open service areas as described in Appendix B. New organizations must demonstrate that they will serve the existing patients, populations, scope of services and service areas currently served by the grantee they intend to replace. Applicants must identify the grantee they intend to replace. The purpose of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Part C Program is to provide HIV primary care in the outpatient setting. Applicants must propose to provide a comprehensive continuum of outpatient HIV primary care services in the targeted area including: 1) HIV counseling, testing, and referral; 2) medical evaluation and clinical care; 3) other primary care services; and 4) referrals to other health services. Primary care for persons with HIV disease should start as early in the course of the infection as possible. However, entry into a Part C EIS program may take place at any point in the spectrum of the disease or the patient's lifespan.
