Impact of Sequestration on CDC
HHS Secretary Letter to Senate Appropriations on impacts of
Sequestration:
“Sequestration would impair the Department's ability to prevent
and treat HIV/AIDS. The cuts to the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) translate into approximately 424,000 fewer HIV
tests conducted by CDC's health department grantees.”
5.1% cut = $40 million

Impact of Sequestration
HHS Letter to Senate Appropriations on Impacts of
Sequestration:
“Sequestration would impair the Department's ability to prevent and
treat HIV/AIDS…The Health Resources and Services Administration
estimates that 7,400 fewer patients would have access to life-saving
HIV medications through the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP).
This would cause delays in service and drug provision to people
living with HIV and potentially lead to ADAP wait lists for HIV
medications.”
5.1% cut = $122 million
NIH AIDS Research
• New Drug Development
• Behavioral Research
• Treatment as Prevention
• Vaccine
• Basic Science
• Cure
• Microbicides
NIH AIDS Research
FY12: $3.06 billion (Flat)
FY14 Community Request: $3.6 billion (+$540 million)
5.1% cut = $156 million
Housing Opportunities

• Distributed by formula to 138 Jurisdictions
• An additional 147,000 households eligible for HOPWA
Housing Opportunities

Impact of Sequestration
Secretary Donovan Testimony to Senate Appropriations:
“Not only HOPWA (7,300 households will lose assistance) but
125,000 housing choice voucherholders, ½ of whom are disabled
or elderly, will lose assistance and 100,000 homeless or formerly
homeless will lose support and risk return to homelessness. The cuts
to these programs as well can’t be good for people with HIV/AIDS.”
5.1% cut = $17 million
HIV/AIDS Programs & the Budget
•
Despite significant overall budget cuts, so far HIV programs
have been mostly spared
•
Domestic HIV programs have been a priority for Obama
Administration & many in the Congress
•
At current spending levels, we can not realize our goals
anytime soon
•
Decisions now will determine the future of HIV/AIDS

ability to draw down the 100% federal match for the first three

stated that it will not accept federal funds and will not expand
Medicaid.
