RESUMO

Background: The Moderate Needs (MOD) Clinic in Seattle, Washington provides walk-in primary care for people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who are incompletely engaged in standard care. Methods: We evaluated HIV outcomes among patients enrolled in the MOD Clinic (within group analysis) and, separately, among MOD patients versus patients who were MOD-eligible but did not enroll (comparison group analysis) during January 1, 2018-September 30, 2021. The primary outcome was viral suppression ([VS] viral load <200 copies/mL); secondary outcomes care engagement (≥2 visits ≥60 days apart) and sustained VS (≥2 consecutive suppressed viral loads ≥60 days apart). In the within group analysis, we examined outcomes at time of MOD enrollment versus 12 months postenrollment. In the comparison group analysis, we examined outcomes at the time of MOD eligibility versus 12 months posteligibility. Both analyses used modified Poisson regression. Results: Most patients in MOD (N = 213) were unstably housed (52%) and had psychiatric comorbidities (86%) or hazardous substance use (81%). Among patients enrolled ≥12 months (N = 164), VS did not increase significantly from baseline to postenrollment (63% to 71%, P = .11), but care engagement and sustained VS both improved (37% to 86%, P < .001 and 20% to 53%, P < .001, respectively) from pre-enrollment to 12 months postenrollment. In the comparison group analysis, VS worsened in nonenrolled patients (N = 517) from baseline to 12 months posteligibility (82% to 75%, P < .001). Patients in the MOD Clinic who met criteria for the comparison group analysis (N = 68) were more likely than nonenrolled patients to be engaged in care at 12 months posteligibility (relative risk, 1.29; 95% confidence interval, 1.03-1.63). Conclusions: The MOD Clinic enrollment was associated with improved engagement in care. This model adds to the spectrum of differentiated HIV care services.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In response to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic, clinicians in outpatient HIV practices began to routinely offer telemedicine (video and/or phone visits) to replace in-person appointments. Video visits are preferred over phone visits, but determinants of video visit uptake in HIV care settings have not been well described. METHODS: Trends in type of encounter (face-to-face, video, and phone) before and during the pandemic were reviewed for persons with HIV (PWH) at an urban, academic, outpatient HIV clinic in Seattle, Washington. Logistic regression was used to assess factors associated with video visit use including sociodemographic characteristics (age, race, ethnicity, language, insurance status, housing status) and electronic patient portal login. RESULTS: After an initial increase in video visits to 30% of all completed encounters, the proportion declined and plateaued at ~10%. A substantial proportion of face-to-face visits were replaced by phone visits (~50% of all visits were by phone early in the pandemic, now stable at 10%-20%). Logistic regression demonstrated that older age (>50 or >65 years old compared with 18-35 years old), Black, Asian, or Pacific Islander race (compared with White race), and Medicaid insurance (compared with private insurance) were significantly associated with never completing a video visit, whereas history of patient portal login was significantly associated with completing a video visit. CONCLUSIONS: Since the pandemic began, an unexpectedly high proportion of telemedicine visits have been by phone instead of video. Several social determinants of health and patient portal usage are associated with video visit uptake.
