HIV/AIDS: Trends Over Time

Published: Mar 05, 2019

Federal funding for HIV has increased significantly over the course of the epidemic, rising from just a few hundred thousand in FY 1982 to more than $34.8 billion in FY 2019, for combined domestic and global efforts. This growth has been driven primarily by increased spending on mandatory domestic care and treatment programs (largely through Medicaid and Medicare), as more people are living with HIV in the United States, as well as by greater investments to combat HIV in low and middle-income countries. Still, federal funding for HIV represents just a small fraction (<1%) of the overall federal budget of the United States, and discretionary funding by Congress has been relatively flat in recent years. This fact sheet provides an overview of trends in federal funding for HIV and an update on current funding levels.
