  8. MN CT Partnership activities • MDH staff developed plans for coalition • Steering Committee, including external partners formed, meeting frequently • Hired consultants to assist w/mtgs and Summit • Created marketing materials, webpages • Contacting MDH divisions, community groups and LPH

  9. Future Partnership activities • August 3 in St. Paul; simultaneous meetings in multiple sites in Greater MN via video conferencing • Following Summit, partnership and workgroups develop 3-5 yr statewide strategy to reduce rates and prevent CT and GC • Presented strategy March 2011 • Stakeholders implement plan

  10. Update on EPT • Provider survey available until 6/14 • Goals: • Who was already using EPT? • Who is planning to implement it? • If not going to implement, why not? • 48 out of 239 responded so far • Will use responses to expand Guidance (add FAQs) and offer capacity building • Some respondents = EPT not new!

  11. Update on EPT pilot projectApril 2010 – April 2011 • 14 clinics enrolled, 8 started; one ED still considering participation; most distribute medications, 1 Rx • Original pt must have confirmed + tests so we have contact info from report forms • Allow providers to treat initial pts w/meds provided even if they are unable to deliver meds to partners • Student started f/up interviews: patients report how many partners received meds, know if they took meds • Outcomes: • Did pts give meds/Rx to partners? All partners? Why/why not? • More likely to take med if med was provided vs. Rx? • How many partners took meds? • Have sex after given treatment? • Ask clinics to evaluate their participation and outcomes in various ways via report to student; look at how hard it is to implement new protocols

  12. Outcomes to date • Some systems had to go through IRBs even though MDH went through IRB • Originally provided CT-only pkts and combo tx pkts but some clinics requested GC-only pkts when confirmed CT neg, GC pos; others treating both even when CT neg • 2 chose not to participate due to discomfort w/MDH contacting pts. Already using EPT & have excellent results w/retesting at 3 mos – will share their data with MDH • Finding unreported/late report cases when compare report forms to pilot log • Considering teleconference to address persistent ?s

  13. Questions/issues raised • Many providers need update on communicable disease reporting rules – many ?s • Need info on retesting and test-of-cure • Providers surprised to find out HD can contact pts as part of normal surveillance • Questions/concerns re: not using w/MSM • Concerned about adverse events, allergies • EDs: responsible to notify pts of results? • Can pts/partners be treated more than once? • Suggestion for HDs managing projects: clinical knowledge essential in conjunction w/data, epi

  14. Suggestions • HDs managing projects: clinical knowledge essential in conjunction w/data, epi • Hold training/info session for all providers before clinics enroll • Create instructions for completing log form
