The maximum annual cumulative charges to an individual for HIV-related services are based on the following guidelines:

1. A person whose income falls below 100% of the current federal poverty guidelines is charged no fee.
2. A maximum of 5% of annual income can be charged to persons with income above 100% but less than 200% of the current federal poverty guidelines.
3. A maximum of 7% of annual income can be charged to persons with income between 200% and 300% of current federal poverty guidelines.
4. For persons with income over 300% of current federal poverty guidelines, a limit of 10% of annual income can be charged for services.

Services will not be denied due to client’s inability to pay.

Clients are responsible for keeping up with charges and informing the clinic when they have reached their billing percent limit, so they will no longer be charged.

Patients will be charged a fee for any missed or cancelled appointments to the clinic or any of its contracted specialty providers.
