In the case of States whose laws or regulations are in accordance with subsection (b), the Secretary, acting through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, shall make grants to such States for the purposes described in subsection (c). For purposes of subsection (a), the laws or regulations of a State are in accordance with this subsection if, under such laws or regulations (including programs carried out pursuant to the discretion of State officials), both of the policies described in paragraph
(1)are in effect, or both of the policies described in paragraph
(2)are in effect, as follows: Voluntary opt-out testing of pregnant women. Universal testing of newborns. Voluntary opt-out testing of clients at sexually transmitted disease clinics. Voluntary opt-out testing of clients at substance abuse treatment centers. The Secretary shall periodically ensure that the applicable policies are being carried out and recertify compliance. A State may use funds provided under subsection
(a)for HIV/AIDS testing (including rapid testing), prevention counseling, treatment of newborns exposed to HIV/AIDS, treatment of mothers infected with HIV/AIDS, and costs associated with linking those diagnosed with HIV/AIDS to care and treatment for HIV/AIDS. A State that is eligible for the grant under subsection
(a)shall submit an application to the Secretary, in such form, in such manner, and containing such information as the Secretary may require. A grant under subsection
(a)to a State for a fiscal year may not be made in an amount exceeding $10,000,000. Nothing in this section shall be construed to pre-empt State laws regarding HIV/AIDS counseling and testing. In this section: The term “voluntary opt-out testing” means HIV/AIDS testing— that is administered to an individual seeking other health care services; and in which— pre-test counseling is not required but the individual is informed that the individual will receive an HIV/AIDS test and the individual may opt out of such testing; and for those individuals with a positive test result, post-test counseling (including referrals for care) is provided and confidentiality is protected. The term “universal testing of newborns” means HIV/AIDS testing that is administered within 48 hours of delivery to— all infants born in the State; or all infants born in the State whose mother’s HIV/AIDS status is unknown at the time of delivery. Of the funds appropriated annually to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for HIV/AIDS prevention activities, $30,000,000 shall be made available for each of the fiscal years 2007 through 2009 for grants under subsection (a), of which $20,000,000 shall be made available for grants to States with the policies described in subsection (b)(1), and $10,000,000 shall be made available for grants to States with the policies described in subsection (b)(2). Funds provided under this section are available until expended. ( July 1, 1944, ch. 373 , title XXVI, § 2625, as added Pub. L. 104–146, § 7(b)(3) , May 20, 1996 , 110 Stat. 1369 ; amended Pub.
