General Revenue Fund is provided to Jackson Memorial Hospital for the
South Florida AIDS Network (recurring base appropriations project).
From the funds in Specific Appropriation 476, $239,996 from the

detailed accounting of the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP). At a
minimum, the reports must include state and federal revenues,
expenditures, appropriations, budget authority, and projected and actual
cash balances; manufacturer rebates, supplemental rebates, and other
pharmaceutical offsets received, accrued, or anticipated; enrollment and
participation data, including participant counts by county of residence

component; prescription utilization information, including utilization
by drug class and direct dispense and insurance assistance utilization;
county-level viral suppression outcomes and related performance trends;
and any operational, contractual, formulary, procurement, actuarial, or
policy changes that may materially impact program expenditures, rebate
collections, enrollment, medication access, or long-term fiscal
sustainability. The reports must also identify any projected funding
shortfalls, cost pressures, or risks to program sustainability,
including estimated fiscal impacts and corrective actions under
consideration by the department. Information determined by the
department to be confidential or exempt pursuant to federal or state law
may be aggregated, redacted, or otherwise protected consistent with
applicable law.
From the funds in Specific Appropriation 476, the Department of
Health shall enter into a data sharing agreement with the Office of
Program Policy Analysis and Government Accountability (OPPAGA) and any
vendor selected by OPPAGA to conduct an evaluation of the AIDS Drug
Assistance Program (ADAP). The vendor selected by OPPAGA must include,
at a minimum, an actuary and a certified public accountant with
expertise in health insurance coverage and financing, pharmaceutical
manufacturer pricing and rebate arrangements, and health care financial
analysis. Such individuals must be independent of the Department of
Health and may not be affiliated with any entity currently contracting
with the department related to the ADAP program.
The department shall cooperate fully with OPPAGA and any selected vendor
and shall provide access to all data, records, contracts, financial
information, expenditure and budget authority data, rebate collections
and reconciliations, prescription drug utilization data, formulary
management practices, pharmaceutical manufacturer agreements,
direct-dispense and insurance assistance program information, enrollment

necessary to conduct a comprehensive review and analysis of the ADAP
program.
The evaluation must include an assessment of the historical operation of
ADAP, including the factors that led to programmatic changes implemented
in March 2026, and recommendations to strengthen the fiscal
sustainability and cost-effectiveness of the program. At a minimum, the
evaluation must include:
1. The program's historical and projected capacity to maintain
enrollment and core services within existing state appropriations and
federal Ryan White Part B grant funding;
2. Strategies to maximize drug manufacturer rebates and identify
alternative revenue-generation or cost-containment strategies to ensure
long-term program stability;
3. The fiscal impact, cost-effectiveness, and structural outcomes of
utilizing separate formularies and differing eligibility parameters for
uninsured populations receiving direct-dispense medications and insured
populations receiving copay, deductible, or premium assistance;
4. A review of participant clinical outcomes, including viral load
monitoring metrics and viral suppression rates by insurance status and
demographic category; and
5. An evaluation of best practices and program designs implemented by
other states, including eligibility standards, benefit design,
cost-sharing or premium assistance structures, formulary management,
utilization management strategies, drug pricing and rebate arrangements,
coordination with Medicaid and Marketplace coverage, and approaches to
controlling pharmaceutical and administrative costs.
6. Recommendations and nationally recognized best practices, including
guidance developed by the National Alliance of State and Territorial
AIDS Directors (NASTAD), related to maximizing prescription drug
discounts, rebates, program income opportunities under the 340B Drug
Pricing Program, and pharmaceutical manufacturer agreements in order to
strengthen the fiscal sustainability and cost-effectiveness of ADAP,
including insurance assistance components, while supporting broader Ryan
White HIV/AIDS Program Part B service delivery, health equity
initiatives, and statewide HIV epidemic response efforts.
OPPAGA shall submit a final evaluation no later than January 31, 2027,
to the Governor, the President of the Senate, and the Speaker of the
House of Representatives. The evaluation must include, at a minimum,
three restructuring options for the AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP),
including at least one option that may be implemented administratively
without statutory change. For each option, OPPAGA shall identify
projected enrollment impacts, including the estimated number of
individuals who may gain, maintain, or lose access to services or
medications; estimated state and federal fiscal impacts, including
projected savings, cost avoidance, rebate maximization opportunities,
and long-term sustainability considerations; operational, actuarial, and
policy implications; impacts on medication access, continuity of care,
viral suppression outcomes, and health equity; and any associated risks,
tradeoffs, or implementation challenges. The evaluation must also
include recommended implementation timelines and identify any required
administrative, contractual, regulatory, budgetary, or statutory changes
necessary to implement each option.

hepatitis, and syphilis in participating Florida hospitals. The
Department of Health shall submit a status report on the FOCUS program
to the Governor, the President of the Senate, and the Speaker of the
House of Representatives by December 31, 2026. The report must include,

grant, or any other federal grant or funding source made available to
the department to support the operations and maintenance of the Merlin
system, to the extent permitted by federal law, applicable grant terms,
and funding availability. From the funds provided in this Specific
Appropriation 480, $2,006,865 in nonrecurring funds from the Grants and
Donations Trust Fund is provided to the department as a temporary
contingency that may be utilized to maintain the Merlin system only to
the extent that available and allowable federal funds are insufficient.
Any expenditure of state funds from the Grants and Donations Trust Fund
for this purpose is explicitly declared to be an interim supplement, not
a permanent supplanting of federal funding sources, and does not
establish a permanent state funding baseline or Maintenance of Effort.
Of the $2,006,865 in nonrecurring funds from the Grants and Donations
Trust Fund, 75 percent shall be held in reserve. The department is
authorized to submit a budget amendment to request release of funds

submission of the following: (1) a grant analysis for the ELC grant and
the PHEP grant demonstrating allowable federal funds are insufficient to
support the operations and maintenance of the Merlin system which must
be certified as accurate by the department's inspector general or
director of auditing; (2) documentation demonstrating prior attempts to
obtain federal funds to support the operations and maintenance of the
Merlin system including any justification provided by the cognizant
federal agency regarding denials or partial funding of prior requests
for grant funding by the department; (3) a historical analysis of
expenditures supporting the Merlin system detailed by fiscal year,
funding source, and applicable federal grant that identifies the amount
of state or federal funds expended for (a) operations and maintenance
and (b) enhancements from Fiscal Year 2018-2019 through Fiscal Year
2024-2025; (4) a monthly spend plan that identifies the rate and job
classification of each staff augmentation resource under contract with
the department in support of the Merlin system; and (5) a copy of all

Statutes, no funds in Specific Appropriations 432 through 593 are
provided for the department to initiate or continue enhancements of the
Merlin system.
From the funds in Specific Appropriation 480, $5,775,000 in
nonrecurring funds from the General Revenue Fund is provided to the
Department of Health to contract with a qualified vendor to conduct a
