Acknowledgements to the Pilot Year TX-MMP Team: • Katharine Carvelli, Epidemiologist • Mark Heinzke, Data Manager • Sharon K. Melville, Principal Investigator • Nita Ngo, Epidemiologist • Jim Phillips, Data Collector • Renee Ridgley, Data Collector • Tammy Sajak, Co-Principal Investigator • Jose Velez, Data Collector • Simone Wooden-Jackson, Data Collector
What is the Medical Monitoring Project (MMP)? • A survey and medical chart review about the experiences and needs of people living with HIV and AIDS in the US • Behaviors • Clinical outcomes • Type and quality of care received • Identify met and unmet needs for HIV care and prevention services
MMP Goals • Determine access to and use of prevention and support services • Provide local and national estimates for the population in care for HIV • Examine variations of factors by geographic area and patient characteristics (i.e. risk behaviors, quality of care etc.)
How you might use the MMP data • Supplement your local needs assessments • Determine need for new programs in your organization • Use for grant applications and RFP’s • Use as a benchmark for your programs • Requests for special data runs
Nationally Representative Three Stage Sampling Design • 1st stage - Site 20 states + 6 cities randomly selected • 2nd stage - Provider • 40-60 facilities randomly selected - large, medium, and small • 3rd stage - Patient • 400 randomly selected patients Chicago San Francisco New York City Philadelphia LA County Houston High Medium Alaska Hawaii Puerto Rico Low
Pilot Year – 2005 Preliminary data 13 sites Sampled 27 facilities Sampled 150 patients 81 interviews 86 chart abstractions Project Year – 2007 Full year – all 26 sites participating Sampled 47 facilities 27 recruited to-date 400 patients to be sampled 400 interviews & abstractions to be done MMP Data collection

Reasons for Delay in HIV Care • Didn’t want to think about being HIV positive (main reason) • Felt good, didn’t need to go • Too busy to go • Didn’t want to believe HIV test results • Drinking or using drugs • Fear of being socially ostracized • Felt meds were dangerous

Receipt of Prevention Activity Itemsin Past 12 Months *Percentage computed using those who had received condoms as the denominator † 25% reported ever injecting drugs, but 0% have injected drugs in the past 12 months
Preventive Therapy *Only prescribed to patients who have a CD4 cell count <49.
Reasons For Not Receiving Hepatitis Vaccination • Patient already has hepatitis • Doctor indicated vaccine not necessary • Patient did not believe they were at risk for contracting hepatitis • Patient doesn’t like needles • Patient was not aware vaccine was available • Patient did not complete the series
Prevention: Tests †Among patients who have ever had a TB skin test *Cell suppressed for n<3

Reason Never Started Antiretroviral Treatment • Doctor advised to delay treatment (main reason) • CD4 counts and/or viral load good • Felt good and didn’t need them • Concerned about side effects
