An insurance card. The US doesn't have free treatment. There are programs that assist with medication like the Ryan White Foundation. But you'd have to see a doctor first. Especially if you haven't took any meds in a while.

Mahalo @A myHIVteam Member for this clarification. This helps clear up the confusion and myriad of false information and news as you redirect our team's attention getting back on track. Qualities of one of our Ambassador representatives that is genuinely here to contribute and assist where seen fit. Aloha Brother
I can't figure out how many years I've known you and what a troublemaker you were when we first met, it was all in fun to me and sparked my interest on this platform and I liked it and decided to stay because of you, then life happens, we go our separate ways, but then end up back here again, in my case. Now you are low key, quiet confidence in the background, only contributing when absolutely necessary, which I think is great. I am in the hospital on some morphine and some CBD gummies, pain managed well, and enjoying this time of rest and I can't stfu!
Anyway! Thanks bro for being YOU!

Medical treatment in the United States is NOT FREE. Some programs can help make it low-cost and in some instances, free, but the United States does NOT offer free healthcare.

Get your passport first. There are steps to follow whether you have HIV or not, we are all treated equally here in the US, with a little stigma, you need a passport to enter unless you are seeking immunity with a reason.
