Citrus Health Network’s Ryan White Program received a Ryan White Part A/MAI Provider Service Quality Award this week. The program was recognized as the provider with the highest viral load suppression rate in Miami-Dade County for fiscal year 2016-2017. 81 percent of Citrus Health Network’s Ryan White clients had a suppressed or undetectable viral load.
A key goal of treatment for HIV positive patients is to suppress the viral load below detectability by laboratory tests. While an undetectable viral load does not mean HIV has been completely eradicated or that the patient is not infectious to others, it is the best indication of how engaged patients are in care.
The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program is administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the Health Resources and Services Administration, and the HIV/AIDS Bureau. It provides a comprehensive system of care that includes primary medical care and essential support services for people living with HIV who are uninsured or underinsured. Ryan White Part A funds must be used to provide core medical and support services for people living with HIV.
