Determining Your Eligibility

Assistance programs usually determine eligibility based on income. Some programs have other eligibility guidelines. Before you apply for any program, it’s helpful to gather the following types of documents and have them available for review during your eligibility appointment.

  • Proof of your HIV positive status, such as your last lab report or your HIV test results. Your doctor can provide copies of these documents.
  • Proof of Arizona residency, such as a current lease agreement or utility bill in your name, your Arizona driver’s license or state ID card, etc.
  • Proof of your current income, such as one month of paycheck stubs, your most recent tax return, a Social Security benefits statement, etc. If you have no income, some programs will ask you to sign a form stating this.
  • For insurance premium and/or copay assistance, you’ll need to provide proof of your insurance, such as your AHCCCS, Medicare or private insurance card.

Need Insurance Assistance?

Insurance red tape can get complicated. That’s why there are enrollment specialists to help you apply for financial assistance programs having to do with health insurance premiums, copays/deductibles and COBRA premiums.
