If you make under 400% of the FPL, you should be able to get approved for the State ADAP program.

Hi Roger,

The best way for you to start your treatment it's trying to get in contact with the department of health in Florida.

Go to your nearest healthcare center and they can refer you to a clinic specialized in hiv treatment.

Once that's done, they will sign you up on a program in which you can get your medications at no cost or low cost an even they can pay a health insurance for you.

That's what I did and that's what I get, the state pay for all my meds and also a health insurance.

Look online for an hiv clinic in your area.

That's your start point

I looked for you this

hivtreatment.info/

Don't know if it's close to you but...

You never know, they can refer you to one in your area.

Let me know how it went.

Regards,

Edgar
