Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Other
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY
The purpose of this study is to enhance and evaluate the implementation of a PrEP Care Continuum data dashboard across seven distinct clinical sites in Alabama. By leveraging real-time data and fostering collaborative partnerships, this project aims to accurately visualize care disparities, allocate resources strategically, identify and address care gaps in the delivery of PrEP services, and gauge its impact on HIV prevention efforts.

The PrOTECT AL dashboard consisted of a public-facing homepage with information on the purpose of the project, resources for finding PrEP services across the state, information on project partners, and reading materials on HIV and prevention efforts across AL. From the website, partners can access the data dashboard via a clinic-specific login where they view both aggregate data and their clinic-level data. Data elements include: number of patients referred for, linked to, prescribed, or discontinued from PrEP within the reporting period (3-month timeframe); primary PrEP indications recorded; and AL counties served. These elements can be filtered down by race, age, and gender. Additional proposed modifications, will include an PrEP coverage map, showing where the greatest unmet needs are for PrEP service delivery in the state as well as a PrEP equity scores, clinic performance indicator that will be populate every 3-months.
