Answer preview

The Ryan White Paper Act comprises one vital health programs that have been undertaken by the Federal government. The initiative was primarily formed to provide medical assistance to uninsured American citizens affected by HIV/AIDS. The System integrates the collaboration of community-based organizations, states, and cities to provide comprehensive care to the uninsured class of citizens. Besides the care, a segment of the program’s funds is used in financing technical assistance, capacity building, clinical training, and development. Contrary to health insurance care provided by Medicaid programs, Ryan Act seeks to overcome the limitations such as eligibility standards as it allows for medical assistance to people living with HIV for as long funds are available (Taylor, 2015).
