Summary

The goal of this study is to assess the impact of an intervention, known as SNAPS, to expand Preexposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) prescriptions at Health + Hospitals (H+H)/Bellevue. In addition, evaluating whether this intervention, ie SNAPS, helps patients get on PrEP and stay on PrEP to prevent STIs like HIV. PrEP is a medication that needs to be taken on a regular basis in order to be effective to prevent HIV transmission.

Conditions

  • Hiv
  • Sexually Transmitted Infection

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

SNAPS intervention

The intervention is multi-level yet, targets the "weakest chains in the link" of PrEP initiation at safety-net hospitals designed for scalability, sustainability, and implementability across a wide range of settings. It consists of Surveillance by STI testing, Navigation by unannounced patient navigators to the Sexual Health Clinic (SHC), Accelerated follow-up with providers with PrEP expertise, Point-of-care PrEP counseling and laboratory testing, and Seamless, consistent, longitudinal, comprehensive care (SNAPS). SNAPS will selectively target those care settings where PrEP prescribing is particularly rare or absent (eg, OB/GYN). Study team will utilize a quasi- experimental design to compare rates of PrEP uptake overall, PrEP initiation in disproportionately-impacted groups, and PrEP retention pre-versus post-initiation of SNAPS, controlling for secular trends.
