Health Care Facility Characteristics Associated With Providing Telehealth HIV Care Services During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Objectives. To describe provision of HIV telehealth services during the COVID-19 pandemic using data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Medical Monitoring Project Facility Survey for the Ending the HIV Epidemic in the United States initiative, which aims to achieve an at least 90% reduction in new HIV infections by 2030 and highlights telehealth as an important strategy. Methods. During 2021, we surveyed 1023 facilities pro…
Unmet needs for ancillary care services are associated with HIV clinical outcomes among adults with diagnosed HIV
Ancillary care services are essential for supporting care engagement and viral suppression among persons with HIV. Estimating unmet needs for ancillary care services may help address care barriers and improve clinical outcomes, but recent, nationally representative estimates are lacking. Using CDC Medical Monitoring Project data from 2015-2018, we report representative estimates of unmet needs for ancillary care services and associations with HIV…
Antiretroviral prescription, retention in care and viral suppression by place of birth among adults with diagnosed HIV in the United States—2015–2017, medical monitoring project
HIV clinical outcomes have not been fully assessed by place of birth at the national level. We analyzed the Medical Monitoring Project data, an annual cross-sectional survey designed to produce nationally representative estimates on adults with diagnosed HIV in the United States, collected during 2015–2017 (n = 7617). We compared sociodemographic, behavioral, and clinical outcomes by place of birth using Rao-Scott chi-square tests (P < .05). Over…
Limited English proficiency among adults with HIV in the United States – Medical Monitoring Project, 2015–2018
Research suggests that language barriers in health care settings may adversely affect clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction. We describe the characteristics of adults with limited English proficiency (LEP) and diagnosed HIV in the United States. The Medical Monitoring Project is a complex sample survey of adults with diagnosed HIV in the United States that uses two-stage, probability-proportional-to-size sampling. We analyzed weighted interv…
Systematic monitoring of retention in care in U.S.-based HIV care facilities
National guidelines recommend that HIV providers systematically monitor retention in care to identify and re-engage persons suboptimally in care. We described (1) U.S.-based outpatient HIV care facilities that systematically monitor retention in care, and (2) characteristics of patients attending facilities that monitored retention in care. We used data collected during 6/2014–5/2015 from the Medical Monitoring Project, an annual, cross-sectional…
Missed opportunities for prevention and treatment of hepatitis C among persons with HIV/HCV coinfection
Hepatitis C (HCV) and HIV have common modes of transmission but information about HCV transmission risk, prevention, and treatment among persons with coinfection is lacking. The Medical Monitoring Project produces nationally representative estimates describing adults with diagnosed HIV in the United States. Using medical record data recorded during 6/2013-5/2017, we identified persons with detectable HCV RNA documented during the past 24 months. …
Trends in provider-advised HIV antiretroviral therapy deferral in the United States, 2009–2014
Since 2012, U.S. clinical guidelines for antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation have recommended universal ART prescription barring patient contraindications. Although ART prescription has significantly increased among U.S. HIV patients in recent years, the reasons for this increase, and why some patients are still not taking ART, are not well characterized. To fill these gaps, we analyzed data from the Medical Monitoring Project (MMP), to asses…
HIV Care Outcomes among Hispanics/Latinos with Diagnosed HIV in the United States by Place of Birth-2015–2018, Medical Monitoring Project
Relocation from one's birthplace may affect human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) outcomes, but national estimates of HIV outcomes among Hispanics/Latinos by place of birth are limited. We analyzed Medical Monitoring Project data collected in 2015-2018 from 2564 HIV-positive Hispanic/Latino adults and compared clinical outcomes between mainland US-born (referent group), Puerto Rican (PR-born), and those born outside the United States (non-US-born). …
Depression Prevalence, Antidepressant Treatment Status, and Association with Sustained HIV Viral Suppression Among Adults Living with HIV in Care in the United States, 2009–2014
Reproductive health counseling delivered to women living with HIV in the United States
Advances in antiretroviral therapy (ART) and reproductive technologies have made transmission of HIV to partners and infants almost completely preventable. Comprehensive reproductive health counseling (CRHC) is an important component of care for women living with HIV, but few women report discussing reproductive health with an HIV care provider. We surveyed a probability sample of U.S. HIV care providers during 2013-2014. Of 2023 eligible provide…
Weighted Multilevel Models
Recent advances in statistical software1 have enabled public health researchers to fit multilevel models to a variety of outcome variables. Multilevel models facilitate inferences regarding unexplained variability among randomly sampled clusters of units (e.g., hospitals) in outcomes of interest and identify covariates that explain the variance in a given outcome at each level of a particular data hierarchy (e.g., patients within hospitals).2,3 M…
