HIV-Experienced Provider Attestation

The Health Plan is required by the New York State Department of Health to identify participating health care providers who have experience treating HIV/AIDS patients and to make this information available to members in our provider directory.

An HIV-experienced health care provider is defined as:

  1. A medical doctor, nurse practitioner or physician assistant providing ongoing direct clinical ambulatory care to at least 20 HIV-infected persons who are being treated with antiretroviral therapy in the preceding 12 months, or
  2. A health care provider who has met the criteria of one of the following accrediting bodies:
    • The HIV Medicine Association (HIVMA) definition of an HIV-experienced provider
    • HIV specialist status accorded by the American Academy of HIV Medicine (AAHIVM)
    • Advanced AIDS Credited Registered Nurse Credential given by the HIV/AIDS Nursing Certification Board (HANCB)

If you meet one of these definitions, please complete and submit the HIV-Experienced Provider Attestation Form. This will ensure that your information is included in future Provider Directory updates to assist our members in locating HIV/AIDS-experienced health care professionals.
