Agenda • Welcome & Introductions, 5min • Low-Effort Clinic-Wide Intervention to Increase Patient Retention In Care, 30min • Q & A Session, 20min • Updates & Reminders, 5min
Preliminary Findings From CDC/HRSA Retention in Care Project Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention Centers for Disease Control and Prevention The findings and conclusions in this presentation are those of the presenters and do not necessarily represent the view of CDC or HRSA
CDC Lytt Gardner, lead CDC investigator Gary Marks, Co-I Jason Craw, Co-I/study coordinator HRSA Investigators Faye Malitz, Robert Mills, Laura Cheever Mountain Plains AETC Lucy Bradley-Springer, Marla Corwin
Objective • To identify clinic-based interventions to promote regular attendance for primary care and prevent loss to care
Timeline For The Two Phases 6/09 6/10 6/11 6/12 |------------|------------|------------|-------------|-------------|------------|------------| ▼ PHASE 1 clinic-wide intervention ▼ PHASE 2 RCT enrollment ▼ 12-month intervention period begins, per enrollee, and monitoring of attendance ▼ After intervention ends, monitor attendance for 12 months, per enrollee
Focus of The Talk Phase 1 • Brief description of methodology of clinic-wide intervention (Gary) • Findings and conclusions (Lytt)
Phase 1: Features of Clinic-Wide Intervention • Theme: “Stay Connected for Your Health” • Provider messages about importance of regular care and keeping appointments • Working as a team • Keeping you healthy • Best possible care • Staying ahead of the virus • Brochure • Posters (waiting room, exam rooms)
Comparison Strategy & Outcome Measures for Phase 1 Serial cross-sectional comparisons Pre-intervention period ▼ Intervention period 6/08 6/09 6/10 |---------------------|--------------------|--------------------|---------------------| Comparison strategy Of patients exposed to intervention in first 6 months, looked at behavior after exposure Compared with behavior of patients in pre-intervention period after they had an anchor visit in the first 6 months Outcomes (attendance from clinic databases) • % who kept two consecutive PC appts after exposure • Appointment adherence: proportion of scheduled PC appts kept (excluding appts cancelled ahead of time)
Percent Who Kept Two Consecutive PC Appts After Exposure to Intervention
Percent Keeping Next Two PC Appts by Number of Scheduled PC Appts
Percent Keeping Next Two PC Appts by New/Re-engaging vs. Active Patients
Appointment Adherence: Proportion of Scheduled PC Appts Kept
Mean Proportion of Scheduled PC Appts Kept by Number of Scheduled PC Appts
Mean Proportion of Scheduled PC Appts Kept by Viral Load Status of Patients
Mean Proportion of Scheduled PC Appts Kept by CD4 Cell Count
Mean Proportion of Scheduled PC Appts Kept by New/Re-engaging vs. Active Patients
Limitations • Pre-post comparison with no concurrent control group • Patient exit surveys were not available during the pre-intervention period (no comparison)
Conclusions • Low effort clinic-wide intervention contributed to a modest boost in attendance for PC • Stronger for “next two” (short term boost) • Waning effect for “visit adherence” (proportion of allappts kept in 12-month period) • Some small effects “significant” due to large N
Conclusions • For both outcomes, effects stronger for some sub-groups: • New/re-engaging • Detectable VL • CD4 cell count < 350 • Younger patients (16-29) • Effect of # scheduled visits differed by outcome variable
