Overview of this presentation • The convergence of HIV care and health reform • Current issues for care for HIV, review the Gardner Continuum for DC • Begin to explain why DC has problems suppressing viral load • Patient Centered Medical Home • Accountable Community Care and redesign of the care delivery system • The way forward
- 4. Where are we? (1) • Convergence of two great movements • National AIDS Strategy which emphasizes suppression of viral load – Treatment is prevention • Health reform is moving towards establishment of patient centered medical homes for better care of chronic disease – This is happening regardless of whether insurance mandates continue. • One point of convergence is an “HIV medical home”
- 5. Where are we? (2) • National leader in fight against HIV and AIDS • Second highest health insurance coverage in the nation after Massachusetts • 93% of adults are covered in DC • 96% of children are covered, number one in the nation!
- 6. Where are we? (3) • As an early adopter of Affordable Care Act, DC can move on to issue of improving the design of the health care delivery system • DC has shifted over 1000 people off of ADAP onto Medicaid to achieve “treatment on demand” • Medicaid Expansion – Extends Medicaid eligibility to every U.S. Citizen with income at or below 133% (tax rate of 138%) of the federal poverty level (FPL)
- 7. The National HIV/AIDS Strategy • Great contribution that has helped focus the field • The four pillars of the strategy – Reducing HIV incidence – Increasing access to care and optimizing health outcomes – Reducing HIV-related health disparities – Achieving a More Coordinated National Response to the HIV DC is actively scaling up the National Strategy Epidemic

- 26. The mission of the JACQUES Initiative (J.I.) program is to provide a holistic care delivery model that provides long-term treatment success for urban populations infected with HIV. Our focus is to decrease the morbidity and mortality associated with HIV illness through care delivery while providing early intervention services through activities such as testing, outreach and linkage to care. We are committed to providing a “safe place” for our clients through delivered services and providing access to clinical research for all. We accomplish this mission through the Journey To Wellness.
- 27. Summary • To reach the potential of “treatment as prevention” we must improve the care delivery system in coordination with community support. • The medical home provides a useful model to achieve continuity and comprehensive care. • Redesign of the health care delivery system should be a top priority for research in DC.

- AbstractIn this era of effective antiretroviral therapy, early diagnosis of HIV and timely linkage to and retention in care are vital to survival and quality of life. Federal guidelines recommend regular monitoring of HIV-related laboratory parameters and initiation of antiretroviral treatment at specified thresholds. We used routinely reported laboratory data to measure intervals between visits by New York City residents newly diagnosed with HIV July 1 to September 30, 2005, and initiating care within 3 months of diagnosis. We measured regular care (≥1 visit every 6 months) and retention in care (last visit ≤6 months before close of analysis) through June 30, 2009. Patients were followed for 45–48 months. Seventy-seven percent (650/842) of patients initiated care within 3 months of diagnosis; 609 (93.7%) made at least one subsequent visit; 45.4% had regular care. Risk factors for not receiving regular care included age 13–24 versus 50+ (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 3.0, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.5, 6.0), black race (AOR 2.0, 95% CI 1.4,2.8), eligibility for antiretroviral treatment (AOR 1.5, 95% CI 1.1, 2.2), and injection drug use (IDU; AOR = 2.7. 95% CI 1.0, 7.1). In a time-to-event analysis, risk factors for loss to care were age 13–24 versus 50+ at diagnosis (adjusted hazard ratio [AHR] 1.9, 95% CI 1.1, 3.4), non-hospital site of care (AHR 1.4, 95% CI 1.0, 2.0) and early stage (non-AIDS) disease (AHR 1.4, 95% CI 1.0, 2.0). The analysis demonstrates how mandated reporting of HIV-related laboratory tests provides surveillance systems with the capacity to monitor utilization of care, identify deficits, and evaluate progress in programs designed to facilitate retention in care.
- This analysis includes HIV cases diagnosed in 2008 and 2009 in DC that were linked to care by December 31, 2010. The analysis compares those that were in continuous care in the year following linkage to care to those that did not meet the continuous care definition in the year following linkage to care. The continuous care definition that was used is the HRSA definition (2 labs reported that were 3 months apart in 1 year). This graph shows that blacks were more likely than whites to be out of continuous care. Hispanics were also more likely than whites to be out of continuous care, but this difference is not statistically significant. Those 20-29 and 50-59 were less likely than those 13-19 to be out of continuous care.
- 2) The practice establishes written standards on scheduling each patient with a personal clinician for continuity of care and the practice collects data to show that it meets its standards on Clinical Information Systems 3) The practice uses an electronic data system that includes searchable data such as patient demographics, visit dates and diagnoses (up to 12 specific factors), and the practice uses an electronic or paper-based system to identify clinically important conditions or risk factors among its patient population. Delivery System Redesign 4) The practice establishes written standards to support patient access, including policies for scheduling visits and responding to telephone calls and electronic communication (up to 9 specific factors). 5) The practice collects data to demonstrate that it meets standards related to appointment scheduling and response times for telephone and electronic communication (up to 5 specific factors). 6) The practice defines roles for physician and non-physician staff and trains staff, with non-physician staff, involved in reminding patients of appointments, executing standing orders and educating patients/families. 7) The practice uses electronic or paper-based tools including medication lists and other tools such as problem lists, or structured templates for notes or preventive services to organize and document clinical information in the medical record. 8) The practice conducts a comprehensive health assessment for all new patients to understand their risks and needs including past medical history, risk factors and preferences for advance care planning (up to 5 specific factors). 9) For three clinically important conditions, the physician and non-physician staff conducts care management using an integrated care plan to set goals, assess progress and address barriers (5 specific factors). 10) For three clinically important conditions, the physician and non-physician staff conduct care management planning ahead of the visit to make sure that information is available and the staff is prepared as well as following up after the visit to make sure that the treatment plan (including medications, tests, referrals) is implemented. 11) The practice identifies appropriate evidence-based guidelines that are used as the basis of care for clinically important conditions. Patient/Family Engagement 12) The practice supports patient/family self-management through activities such as systematically assessing patient/family-specific communication barriers and preferences, providing self-monitoring tools or personal health record, and providing a written care plan. 13) The practice supports patient/family self-management through providing educational resources, and providing/connecting families to self-management resources. 14) The practice encourages family involvement in all aspects of patient self-management. Coordination 15) The practice systematically tracks tests and follows up using steps such as making sure that results are available to the clinician, flagging abnormal test results, and following up with patients/families on all abnormal test results (up to 4 specific factors). 16) The practice coordinates referrals designated as critical through steps such as providing the patient and referring physician with the reason for the consultation and pertinent clinical findings, tracking the status of the referral, obtaining a report back from the practitioner, and asking patients about self-referrals and obtaining reports from the practitioner(s). 17) The practice reviews all medications a patient is taking including prescriptions, over the counter medications and herbal therapies/supplements.
