Assistance for these services is determined by sliding fee income guidelines.
Ryan White Program providers may also request referrals for other medical needs related to HIV care.
Are Ryan White Program services free?
By law, the Ryan White Program is required to be the payer of last resort. This means if a patient has other insurance coverage, such as employer-sponsored coverage, Medicaid or Medicare, that insurer must pay prior to Ryan White funding.
The patient’s financial status will be assessed at intake and annually thereafter to determine eligibility for a sliding fee discount. Income verification must be provided to be eligible. There will be no out of pocket costs imposed on patients whose income is at or below 100% of the federal poverty level. If you are insured, an insurance claim will be filed for all rendered services.
Prescription assistance is available at New Horizon Family Health Services' on-site pharmacy based on the Ryan White Program sliding fee discount schedule.
Transportation assistance is available at no cost to the patient on a case by case basis.
Specialist visits and referrals may be covered if referred by a New Horizon Family Health Services' provider as funds are available.
HIV Prevention
What if there was a pill that could help prevent HIV? There is. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (or PrEP) is a HIV prevention option for people at risk for HIV that works by taking one pill as prescribed every day. To learn more about PrEP, contact 864-729-8330, extension 2614.
Do You Know Your Status? – Free HIV Screening Options
New Horizon Family Health Services' Ryan White Program offers the following free options for HIV screening:
HIV Screening Days:
Free HIV screening is offered at our 975 W. Faris Road office in Greenville Monday - Friday from 8am – 4pm with no appointment needed.
In-Home HIV Screening:
Together TakeMeHome is a national direct-to-consumer program that offers free HIV self-tests by mail. People can order up to two free HIV self-tests every 90 days. Tests are available to anyone 17 or older, regardless of health insurance or immigration status. CDC supports this program in partnership with other organizations. They also offer resources health centers can use to promote self-testing as part of their “Let’s Stop HIV Together” initiative. You do not need to be a NHFHS patient to request a test but individuals will be asked preliminary questions to determine their HIV risk level. When you receive the kit, our Ryan White Program staff will walk you through the testing process step-by-step.
