Who pays for HCP?

There are no fees for our services.

The HIV Care Program (HCP) in California is funded primarily by the federal Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part B, with additional support from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the California State General Fund.

HCP is administered by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) through the Office of AIDS.

What is the difference between CCHAP and HCP?

CCHAP is a more specialized Medi-Cal benefit for those with higher medical needs. HCP recepients do not need to be on Medi-Cal nor do they have to meet the higher medical needs that are required by CCHAP’s Waiver program.
