Florida Limits HIV Med Access, Faces Backlash
Floridas Department of Health implements stricter HIV medication access rules, limiting ADAP coverage to those earning up to 130% of the federal poverty level, down from 400%. The changes also restrict coverage for popular drug Biktarvy. Advocates and lawmakers argue these moves are rushed and unlawful, with a lawsuit already filed. Floridas high HIV diagnosis rate makes reliable meds crucial for health and prevention. State lawmakers have budgeted funds, but its uncertain if theyll reach recipients in time. The situation highlights ongoing debates over health funding and rule-making in the state.
