Associations between Medicare Part D and out-of-pocket spending, HIV viral load, adherence, and ADAP use in dual eligibles with HIV.
This study estimated the effect of Medicare part D on self-reported out-of-pocket prescription drug spending, AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) use, antiretroviral adherence, and HIV viral load (VL) suppression among dual eligibles with HIV. It concluded that part D was associated with increased out-of-pocket spending, although the increased spending did not seem to compromise antiretroviral therapy adherence or HIV VL suppression.
