HIV/AIDS and long-term care: a state perspective.
Long-term care services for people with human immunodeficiency virus/ acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) were fostered in New York State by passage of HIV-specific regulations that set program standards and authorized reimbursement rates sufficient to support these standards. A rapid expansion of HIV-specific capacity has occurred. Demographic and selected clinical characteristics of the populations in AIDS residential health care facilities and AIDS adult day health care programs in New York State are presented. Aspects of the service models for these two program types that have changed to meet new needs are discussed.
