Abstract
The Ryan White Comprehensive AIDS Resources Emergency Act facilitates dental care access for people who are HIV-positive, and is the likely explanation for the higher prevalence of dental care use in this group compared with uninfected women at high risk of becoming infected. This underscores the need for Medicaid to include dental coverage for low-income populations in all states.
