Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part F Dental Reimbursement Program

The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part F Dental Reimbursement Program (DRP) aims to enhance access to oral health care for low-income individuals living with HIV by providing partial reimbursement to eligible dental schools and accredited dental hygiene programs for unreimbursed oral health care costs. This program, authorized under section 2692(b) of the Public Health Service Act, supports institutions that offer services to people with HIV by financially compensating expenses not covered by other payers. Eligible institutions can apply annually for reimbursement based on the previous year's costs, with funds allocated proportionally according to the number of HIV patients served and the amount of unreimbursed care relative to other applicants. The solicitation for this program was posted on June 8, 2026, with a response deadline of July 10, 2026. The Health Resources and Services Administration, under the Department of Health and Human Services, administers the program and serves as the contact point for applicants. While the announcement does not specify detailed geographic or organization type requirements beyond eligibility criteria, it stresses the importance of supporting institutions that contribute to expanding oral health education, training, and care for HIV-positive populations across the United States.
