AHF is asking Newsom to intervene and stop Medi-Cal from cancelling a respected 27-year-old AIDS care program created and operated by AHF\u2014the <i>only <\/i>specialized managed care plan for people living with AIDS in California.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nIn late June, AHF received notice from state\u2019s Department of Managed Health Care that it was not renewing AHF\u2019s contract for the plan for 2023, leaving patients at the mercy of other care plans whose medical providers don\u2019t have the years-long relationships with these particular patients\u2014and may also not have the same degree of expertise in managing the care of AIDS patients.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nIn its ad in the Bee, AHF cites the decades-long, time-honored tradition of AIDS activism that awakened a nation to the poor quality of treatment of AIDS patients and reminds Governor Newsom:\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"bwmarginl1\">\n<i>\u201cYou have had a distinguished record as mayor and governor supporting the LGBTQ community, which is most affected by HIV. We trust that you will continue to keep faith with us.\u201d<\/i>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe ad continues:\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"bwmarginl1\">\n<i>\u201cYour department admits the reason for canceling this contract has nothing to do with the quality of care we provide but solely that we sought to mobilize our patients to advocacy.<\/i>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"bwmarginl1\">\n<i>We are appealing this decision, but your department has openly said that it will cancel this contract while the appeal is pending. That&#8217;s just unfair and makes a mockery of due process.\u201d<\/i>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nUnless Governor Newsom intervenes or AHF\u2019s appeal to California\u2019s Department of Managed Health Care is heard quickly and it prevails, AHF\u2019s contract for its managed care plan for people living with AIDS will sunset or end on December 31<sup>st<\/sup> of this year.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<b>AIDS Healthcare Foundation<\/b> (AHF), the largest global AIDS organization, currently provides medical care and\/or services to over 1.6 million individuals in 45 countries worldwide in the US, Africa, Latin America\/Caribbean, the Asia\/Pacific Region and Eastern Europe.
