Adherence to the Spectrum of Care
• Link to care after HIV diagnosis • Generally, attend one visit with a provider
who can prescribe highly active antiretroviral therapy
• Be retained (persist) in care, or stay in care chronically• Attend required provider visits for primary
HIV care
• Adhere to medications
6
Outline
• Why retention in care?• Magnitude of the problem• Impact on outcomes• Predictors• Interventions• Challenges• Recommendations
7
Why is retention important?
Retention in Care: • Is modifiable• Affects outcomes
• Individual and population levels
• Affects quality of care measures • HAB, HIVQUAL
• Affects utilization • RVU, clinic efficiency
• Clinicians can affect change
8
Magnitude of the Problem• HCSUS: 1/3 to 2/3 of persons with HIV in US
are not in regular care, half of whom know they have HIV
• CDC: 17-40% of PLWHA who know status are not in regular care
• Deaths with HIV in B.C., Canada, 1997-2001• Of 554 non-accidental deaths, 69% were HIV-related• Median proportion of time on HAART = 20%• >50% not on HAART at death
• ARTAS: 40% of patients newly diagnosed did not see provider within 6 months

Newer data…
• 2010 meta-analysis found 41% of patients in 28 studies did not attend multiple clinic visits over varying intervals—averaging 12 months.
• in+Care data from first round: • 17% of patients had a gap in care• 39% of patients not retained in care for 2
years• 42% of new patients not retained for 1 year
Marks, AIDS 2010, 24.
10
Impact on Outcomes• Poor retention in care
• Less likely to get HAART• Higher rates of HAART failure
•Worse retention in care associated with increased HIV transmission behavior
• More hospitalizations• Worse survival

Predictors of Poor Linkage and Appointment Adherence or Retention
in Care• Demographic characteristics
• Younger age• Female sex• Racial/ethnic minority status• No or public insurance• Lower socioeconomic status• Rural residence• No usual source of care

Predictors of Poor Linkage and Appointment Adherence or Retention
in Care• Disease severity
• Less advanced HIV disease• Fewer non-HIV comorbidities
• Psycho-social characteristics• Substance use • Low readiness to enter care• Less social support
• System and patient factors• Less use of ancillary services • Greater unmet need

SPNS Outreach Intervention
Rumptz, AIDS Pt Care STD 2007, 21:S-30
• Baseline engagement predicts subsequent engagement, though not completely
• Factors associated with retention at 12 month follow-up (adjusted for race and last CD4)
• Discontinued drug use, decreased structural barriers, decreased unmet needs, and stable beliefs about HIV
21
Other Interventions• Interest in patient navigation and peer outreach
▫ SPNS Outreach Intervention▫ Technical assistance on this topic
• Various research projects funded by NIH• HRSA-CDC Multi-site trial
▫ 6 clinics (Baltimore, Birmingham, Boston, Houston, Miami, New York City)
▫ 3-arm randomized study comparing intensive intervention, limited intervention, usual care
▫ Intervention based on skills building with MI and strength-based approach (results in one year)
▫ Clinic-wide marketing and brief messaging intervention, pre/post design (modest effect seen; Gardner National HIV Prevention Conference, 2011 abstract 2018)
22
Challenges
• Patient and provider / system level • Staffing and resources
23
Challenges: Patient & Provider Level
• Patient level changes
• Changing behavior, similar to medication adherence
• Improving trust, communication, stigma
• Removing structural barriers and unmet need (transportation, housing, child care, financial)
• Reducing substance use
24
Challenges: Patient & Provider Level
• Provider and system level changes• Provider communication and decision-making
style• Appointment scheduling systems• Improving clinic access (extended clinic hours?)• Maintaining accurate contact information• De-fragmenting health insurance and health care
processes• Reorganizing healthcare delivery for decades of
HIV care• Staffing and resources limitations
25
Challenges: Staffing and Resources
• ARTAS: 120 clients per year, so about 10-15 new case managers for Houston
• SPNS Outreach Initiative had average of 4.9 contact hours per new client per month, for 12 months• 168 work hours per month; 168 / 4.9 = 34.3 clients per
outreach worker. At TSHC (300 newly diagnosed patients per year) = 9 dedicated outreach workers
• SPNS Outreach Initiative effective if ≥9 contacts in 90 days • If 15 minutes each contact, at TSHC (1000 patients with
poor retention) = 5 dedicated outreach workers
• Translation, dissemination, and sustainability Gardner, AIDS 2005, 19:423; Naar-King, AIDS Pt Care and STD 2007, 21:S-40; Cabral AIDS Pt Care STD 2007, 21:S-59
26
What can we do now?Two questions:•In what proportion of patient encounters do
you discuss ART medication adherence?
•In what proportion of patient encounters do you discuss the importance of adherence to clinic visits?
27
Imagine you missed your last dental cleaning and it has been a year. I tell you, “You know, you really need to get your teeth cleaned every 6 months. Bad things could happen to your teeth if you don’t. They might even fall out.” This statement makes you most feel:
1. More knowledgeable 2. Guilty and imperfect3. More motivated 4. Mad, like you are being treated like a child
28
Recommendations for Now1. Track no-show rates and out of care2. Examine your processes of care: bringing
patients back is much more difficult once out of care completely
3. Work with ER and inpatient services, CBOs, public health agencies, jails/prisons, other RW providers to identify poorly retained in care and build or strengthen re-linkage processes
4. Build or strengthen outreach or peer navigator programs
29
Recommendations for Now5. Work with the resources you have: spread the
word about the importance of retention, have staff advocate with patients for retention
6. Improve the customer’s experience7. Minimize unmet need: Strengthen substance
use, mental health, case management, and social services
8. Minimize time between appointment making and appointment date
9. Accomodate the patient’s preferences when scheduling appointments
30
Recommendations for Now
10. Remember that patients generally know they should be in care. Corollaries:
a. Reminders help but are likely not enough
b. Admonishments or encouragements alone will not work
c. Problem solve collaboratively with your patients just as you would for adherence to medications
