Summary

The proposed research focuses on developing and testing a web-based platform, called Jom-TestPlus, that will incorporate HIV self-testing (HIVST) with real-time e-counseling (eHIVST) with online-to-offline (O2O) linkage to HIV prevention and treatment services while simultaneously co-addressing chemsex-related needs for men who have sex with men (MSM) in Malaysia. This model represents a potentially impactful strategy for reaching marginalized populations, like MSM, and allows immediate engagement in the post-test linkage process to prevention or treatment services.

Conditions

  • HIV Prevention Program

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Online to offline counseling

* Online registration and risk assessment: Users complete an onboarding process comprised of creating an account, entering demographic data, customizing settings, and completing the baseline risk assessment. * HIVST kit order, management, and monitoring: The platform will allow users to request HIVST kits via standard mail or self-pickup at user-preferred sites (e.g., LGBT-friendly clinics). After completing the mandatory section of the questionnaire and selecting a delivery option, a random personal identification number will be assigned by the system, which will be used to track future HIVST requests, collect HIVST results, and monitor subsequent linkage to further testing and HIV care. * eHIVST and O2O linkage to HIV clinical services: After unsealing the test kit, participants will find a reminder card to schedule their O2O pre- and post-test e-counseling appointment.
