چکیده

The CARE Act is the largest source of federal funding solely devoted to people living with HIV/AIDS and their families. It supports a range of HIV care and medical support services, from HIV testing and counseling to home hospice care. These services are provided through several funding mechanisms, including grants to cities and states, direct grants to health care providers, and targeted funds to support HIV prescription drugs, dental services, and other activities. In 2004, Congress appropriated more than $2 billion dollars to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Human Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) for distribution to CARE Act programs.
