________________________________
NASTAD is excited to announce the release of two supplemental PrEP billing and coding guides: PrEP for HIV: CMS National Coverage Determination and Lenacapavir for PrEP. Both documents serve as supplements to the PrEP, PEP, and Other HIV Prevention Strategies: Billing and Coding Guide, released in 2023. All three guides can be accessed on NASTAD’s Billing and Coding Guides for HIV Prevention page<https://nastad.org/resources/billing-coding-guide-hiv-prevention>.
Since 2023’s guide release, changes to PrEP coverage and modalities have occurred, resulting in new codes and updated billing guidance. In September 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released its final National Coverage Determination (NCD) regarding Medicare coverage for PrEP and in June 2025, the Food and Drug Administration approved a second long-acting injectable option, Lenacapavir (LEN) for PrEP.
The goal of these supplements is to provide up-to-date information about both Medicare’s coverage of PrEP for HIV Prevention as well as the introduction and implementation of LEN for PrEP. Both supplements are meant to be used in conjunction with the 2023 guide as many sections are referenced throughout the supplements.
To further introduce the supplemental guides, join NASTAD for a webinar on Wednesday, March 4, 2:00 - 3:00 PM ET. The webinar will further walk through both supplemental guides, highlight helpful resources, and address participant’s billing questions. Register for the webinar here.<https://nastad.zoom.us/meeting/register/flN6y-8vSeaP3E_z84wC5w>

Are you a person aging with HIV or part of the healthcare workforce caring for people aging with HIV? Then you know that as people with HIV age, they often face unique challenges—from managing long-term complications of HIV to coordinating complex healthcare needs.
To enhance care coordination and address the clinical and social challenges associated with aging with HIV, HealthHIV has launched the Fifth Annual State of Aging with HIV™ National Survey. This survey seeks perspectives on aging with HIV from people in one or both of the following groups:
· People aging with HIV—particularly those who have been living with HIV for 15 years or more (including long-term and lifetime survivors), and adults aged 50 and older, with a specific focus on those aged 65 and above.
· Healthcare providers working with the HIV and aging community.
The survey is confidential. Its findings will help develop educational materials and improve communication and quality of care between service providers and people aging with HIV. Your input will directly shape the future of HIV care and HealthHIV’s Pozitively Aging program. Depending on the version of the survey, topics include:
· Aging, independence and planning—how health and support systems respond to those needs.
· Concerns about long-term care services, housing stability, and daily living needs.
· Mental health, memory, and emotional well-being.
· Navigating changes in Medicare and Ryan White.
To take the survey, click the button below or scan the QR code. Selecting the group you most identify with on the landing page will bring you to the version of the survey that is right for you.

Thank you for contributing to this important effort and helping us assess the state of aging with HIV in 2026.
