Care Continuum Methodology, New HIV Diagnoses 2011, Georgia Adults and adolescents are those aged >= 13 years Diagnosed between 01/01/11 -12/31/11 Alive at least 15 months after diagnosis Residence at diagnosis and current address within Georgia Excludes 52 persons deceased within 15 months of diagnosis Linked to care = CD4 or VL within 3 months of diagnosis, excluding day of diagnosis Engaged in care >= 1 CD4 or VL 4-15 months after diagnosis Retained in care >= 2 CD4 or VL at least 3 months apart 4-15 months after diagnosis Estimated percentage prescribed ART derived from the Medical Monitoring Project (MMP) Georgia sample Viral suppression (VS) = VL<200 copies/ml in most recent viral load All percentages are percent of total number of persons diagnosed with HIV

4. HIV Care Continuum Methodology Confirmatory Diagnosis Date Months 0-3 after diagnosis Months 4-15 after diagnosis CD4 or Viral Load This person is: Linked YES Engaged YES Retained YES Virally suppressed YES Last viral load <200 copies/ml

5. HIV Care Continuum Methodology HIV Confirmatory Diagnosis Date Months 0-3 after diagnosis Months 4-15 after diagnosis CD4 or Viral Load This person is Linked YES Engaged YES Retained NO Virally suppressed YES “Engaged in care” is minimal engagement that indicates the person “touched” the medical system at least once during that 12 month period Last viral load undetectable CD4 or Viral Load

16. The HIV Care Continuum can help us… Focus our efforts for linkage, retention and viral suppression. Identify groups at increased risk for dropping out of each step in the continuum. Monitor our progress in improvement of linkage, retention, and viral suppression. Identify disparities not only in prevalence but in care Evaluate efforts addressing specific populations with low viral suppression. Monitor efforts in improving viral suppression in specific counties, census tracts, zip codes and some specific facilities Encourage improvement in surveillance data completeness (race, sex, transmission category)

17. Stage of HIV disease at diagnosis Stage at diagnosis is defined by the first CD4 done within 3 months of diagnosis Stage 1 = CD4 >=500 Stage 2 = CD4 200-499 Stage 3 = CD4 <200 or OI Stage at diagnosis is unknown if no CD4 done within 3 months of diagnosis

28. Limitations Incomplete reporting Missing data for race/ethnicity, sex, and complete address at diagnosis Lack of transmission category information Estimation using multiple imputation to redistribute risk when missing Definition of heterosexual transmission (sexual contact with a known HIV infected partner or person with increased risk, i.e., MSM or IDU) Missing laboratory reports CD4 within 3 and 12 months of diagnosis yields high unknown stage in Georgia

29. Uncertainties Populations for which data are missing may be fundamentally different How to obtain data for transgender category How to improve completeness of reporting Data on ART use Understanding barriers to ART adherence Prioritizing further research
