The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program statute was first enacted into law in 1990 and was amended in 1996, 2000, 2006, and 2009. More information about the leg- islation and its history is available from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) HIV/ AIDS Bureau (HAB) at http://hab.hrsa.gov/about- ryan-white-hivaids-program/ryan-white-hivaids- program-legislation.

For the implementation of the Ryan White HIV/ AIDS Program (RWHAP) Metropolitan (Part A) and State (Part B) programs, HRSA HAB and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) collaborate to ensure the appropriate HIV and AIDS surveillance data are used in determining eligibility and funding allocation amounts. In FY 2017, HRSA used total counts of persons living with diagnosed HIV infection non-AIDS and persons living with infection ever clas- sified as AIDS to calculate funding allocation amounts for eligible jurisdictions.
