Ryan White HIV/AIDS Dental ReimbursementsCommunity Based Dental Partnership
Reimbursement
Community Based Dental Partnership aims to increase access to oral health care services for HIV positive individuals, while at the same time providing education and clinical training for dental and hygiene providers, located in community-based settings.
This is achieved through multi-partner collaborations between dental and dental hygiene education programs and community-based dentist and dental clinics, marked by shared expertise and resources.
Funds were awarded to eligible dental schools and post-doctoral dental education programs for reimbursement of uncompensated costs of oral health care and the number of HIV positive patients treated during the prior year.
Community-Based Dental Partnership grants fund collaborative partnerships between dental and dental hygiene education programs and community-based dental providers and organizations.
The Department of Health and Human Services is the Federal government's principal agency for protecting the health of all Americans and providing essential human services, especially to those who are least able to help themselves.

Records
All records must be maintained until expiration of 3 years from the date of submission of the final expenditure report.
