It is unclear if persons living with HIV/AIDS have adequate economic access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) when admitted to nursing homes (NH). Medicare Part A pays NHs a bundled skilled nursing rate that includes prescription drugs for up to 100 days, after which individuals are responsible for the costs. A cross-sectional study NHs A total of 694 newly-admitted long-stay (>100 days) NH residents with HIV We used Minimum Dataset 3.0, pharmacy dispensing data, NH provider surveys, and Medicare claims from 2011–2013. We assessed receipt of any HIV antiretrovirals or recommended combinations (ART), as defined by national care guidelines, and the source of payment. We identified predictors of antiretroviral use with risk-adjusted generalized estimating equation logistic models. All study persons living with HIV/AIDS in NHs had prescription drug coverage through Medicare’s Part D program and ART was 100% covered. However, only 63.9% received recommended ART and 15.2% never received any antiretrovirals during their NH stay. The strongest predictor of not receiving antiretrovirals was the first 100 days of a long NH stay (OR 0.44, 95% CI: 0.24, 0.80). The strongest predictor of receiving recommended ART was health acuity (OR 1.51, 95% CI: 1.20, 1.88). People living with HIV in NHs do not always receive life-saving ART but the reasons are unclear and appear unrelated to economic barriers.
