Improving Identification of Mental Health/Substance Use Disorders in HIV Primary Care: Pilot Clinical Response
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Patient Designated Positive Screen Shared with Provider for HIV Infections. Completed, enrolled 32 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This research is a feasibility pilot of an intervention to respond to positive screening tests for mental health(MH) and substance use (SU) captured through the Patient Reported Outcomes questionnaires (PROs). The PROs are currently performed in the clinic, however, the results are neither reviewed with patients nor transmitted to providers. This pilot assesses the feasibility of moving the PROs into the clinical realm by having patients review the PRO results, identifying an issue to discuss at the patient's next HIV primary care visit, and determining whether this process increases discussion of MH and SU disorders in the subsequent clinical visit and/or increases referrals to MH and/or SU treatment.

Timeline
Interventions
Patient Designated Positive Screen Shared with Provider -- In the intervention, participants will be given the opportunity to determine which positive screen, if any, that the participant would like to discuss with the participant's provider at the next HIV primary care appointment. The participant will be notified that all positive screens will be shared with the provider prior to their next HIV primary care visit, and that any positive screen the patient has chosen to discuss with the provider will be specified. The provider will receive the PROs result (score, interpretation, and recommendation) prior to their next HIV primary care visit
