- What it does
- Dental Reimbursement Program (DRP): To partially compensate accredited dental schools, postdoctoral dental education programs, and dental hygiene education programs for unreimbursed costs they have incurred in providing oral health services to low income, uninsured, and underserved people with HIV. Reimbursement will be made for documenting the number of low income people with HIV served and the unreimbursed oral health costs incurred by each institution as compared with the total number of low income people with HIV served and costs incurred by all eligible applicants. The purpose of the DRP is to improve access to oral health care services for low income, uninsured, and underserved people with HIV. Provide clinical training for dental and dental hygiene students and dental residents to deliver oral health care to people with HIV. Community Based Dental Partnership Program (CBDPP): To improve access to oral health care services for low income, uninsured and underserved people with HIV in underserved geographic areas, while simultaneously providing education and clinical training for dental and dental hygiene students, dental residents, or other dental providers in community-based settings. This is achieved through multi-partner collaborations between dental and dental hygiene education programs recognized by the Commission on Dental Accreditation and community-based dental providers.

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
