  11. Viral Suppression: the Ultimate Goal Justin Britanik District of Columbia HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis, STD, and TB Administration

  12. Background • HAHSTA (HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis, STD, and Tuberculosis Administration) is the Part A grantee for the DC EMA. • The EMA is uniquely diverse, comprised of 3 states, 18 counties, and the District of Columbia. • Sub-recipients include providers of all types and sizes, from county health departments, large hospital systems, Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), specialized HIV/AIDS clinics, to small community based organizations. • HAHSTA also administers DC ADAP and Part B services for the District of Columbia.

  13. HAHSTA Programs and Activities DC EMA Cross-Part Quality Collaborative Recapture Blitz Targeted Treatment Adherence Case Management Operating Committee National HIV Behavioral Surveillance (NHBS) HIV Implementation Plan “Ending the Epidemic” Death Surveillance Lab Surveillance Program Coordination and Service Integration Comprehensive HIV Care Plan Enhanced Comprehensive HIV Prevention Planning Peri-incarcerated MCM Strategic Planning for Target Populations

  14. Priorities throughout the Continuum of Care • HAHSTA recognizes the relevance of measurable outcomes to evaluate programs • Using program data and surveillance data together to increase linkage and retention to care • The administration envisions that providers will coordinate, and collaborate to maximize client access, enrollment and retention in outpatient/ambulatory medical care. • Durable Viral Suppression is the goal, and the Administration understands that retention and adherence activities are the means to achieving this.

  15. DC Treatment Cascade HIV Continuum of Care for HIV Cases Diagnosed in the District of Columbia, 2005-2009

  16. Ryan White Cascade, 2011

  17. Latest Request for Applications Purpose of the Retention for Results: Towards Durable Viral Suppression in the District of Columbia RFA is to create a system of services that serves individuals with HIV as they achieve durable viral suppression • Prepare client for HIV-related care services • Increase the extent to which clients are retained in a system of HIV-related care services • Improve the ability of clients to access and consume services by increasing the coordination of services • Assist clients to achieve durable viral suppression

  18. Outcomes of Viral Load Suppression • Fewer new infections from reduced community viral load • Avoiding drug resistance • Fewer adverse health outcomes (i.e. opportunistic infections, immune system damage) • Savings to healthcare system (i.e. avoiding hospitalization, decreased ED visits) Healthier and happier patients!

  19. Durable Viral load suppression is the goal, but in order to achieve this goal, patients have to be tested, linked to care, placed on ART, and retained in care… So QI efforts around Viral Load suppression need to address all these factors!

  20. QI Projects to Address VL Suppression • DC Collaborative • In+Care Measures • Recapture Blitz • A city-wide outreach initiative to support all Ryan White funded outpatient ambulatory medical care providers in identifying the clients that have truly fallen out of care to focus intensive “blitz” activities to re-engage clients that are no longer accessing care • ADAP Project • Using ADAP data to look at trends in enrollment in the AIDS Drug Assistance Program in Washington DC and quantify virologic response to antiretroviral therapy.

  21. DC EMA Collaborative • Providers have been submitting data on Viral Load Monitoring and Viral Load suppression since 2011. • Focusing on small steps in the right direction, getting full participation

  22. DC Collaborative Project 2013:Viral Suppression • In+Care Campaign Measure: Retention Measure 4: Viral Load Suppression • Percentage of patients, regardless of age, with a diagnosis of HIV/AIDS with a viral load less than 200 copies/mL at last viral load test during the measurement period • Why look at this for retention? • Critical link between early linkage to medical care and healthy patient survival. • Recent indication of viral suppression as means of preventing transmission. • This is the ultimate goal, it gives us an overview of the big picture of the continuum of care.

  23. 2013 Project Continued • Beginning this Grant Year Grantees will report quarterly on In+Care viral load suppression measure. • Providers will conduct and share PDSA cycles via online workspace. • Quarterly in-person meetings about joint quality improvement training activity. • Regional approach: each agency works to reduce it’s own viral load among patient population, the outcome will be profound from over 30+ agencies working in unison to reduce community viral load.

  24. Recapture Blitz • During Spring of 2013, HAHSTA will redouble outreach efforts to re-engage clients in care through a “Recapture Blitz.” • Conducting evidence-based interventions and outreach activities to improve retention in care and treatment on an ongoing basis are standing expectations of the grant agreement. • By coordinating a city-wide outreach initiative, HAHSTA can support providers in identifying the clients that have fallen out of care to focus intensive “blitz” activities and re-engage clients in care.

  25. Recapture Blitz • Providers submit lists of patient believed to be out of care • Matching against HAHSTA datasets: • Ryan White Services Report • AIDS Drug Assistance Program (ADAP) • Surveillance • Labs data • Matching Process - Time since last contact with health care system will be calculated by comparing dates of last: • Ryan White-funded service at another facility across EMA • prescription fill date • lab test • Lists of Clients actually out of care returned to providers • Providers conduct recapture activities to focus on this narrowed list of patients

  26. Assessment of Factors that Influence Care Challenges to retention, adherence, and VL suppression • Language barrier • Discrimination • Stigma • Difficulties finding out where to go for care • Difficulties making an appointment • Difficulties getting to the appointment • Difficulties keeping appointment • Difficulties paying for care – transitioning from RW to Medicaid, etc.

  27. ADAP Project • The DC ADAP absorbed a large increase in clients and prescription volume. • Most clients achieved a desirable clinical benefit, as measured by viral load. • Among patients who are on ART from ADAP Percentage of VL Suppression (<400 copies/mL) 74.0% in 2007 to 90.4% in 2010 • During the same span, from 44.0% in 2007 to 71.0% in 2010 among patients who are not on ART from ADAP

  29. VIRGINIA: VIRAL SUPPRESSION Interventions Anne Rhodes Virginia Department of Health

  30. Background

  31. Past Collaboratives • Cross-State Collaborative (5 States) – focused on improvements in data collection/service provision for Ryan White clients, including medical care and labs • DC Collaborative – involved 3 states and District of Columbia, focused on improved collaboration among the jurisdictions and reporting quality measures

  32. SPNS Systems Linkages

  33. SPNS Patient Navigation

  34. Measuring Care Markers

  35. Treatment Cascade Data: Virginia

  36. Baseline Data: Linkage to Care* **Source: Surveillance, VACRS, ADAP data, Division of Disease Prevention, Virginia Department of Health, April 2013

  37. Baseline Data: Retention in Care (2 Care Markers in 12 month period)* *% of those with 2 care markers in 12 months of those with at least 1 marker Source: Surveillance, VACRS, ADAP data, Division of Disease Prevention, Virginia Department of Health, April 2013

  38. Ryan White Data: Retention in Care (2 Care Markers in 12 month period)* Total N for 2011 = 7,284 Total N for 2012=7,496 *% of those with 2 care markers in 12 months of those with at least 1 marker Source: Surveillance, VACRS, ADAP data, Division of Disease Prevention, Virginia Department of Health, April 2013

  39. Baseline Data: Viral Suppression (<200 C/ML)* *% of those with at least 1 care marker in year Source: Surveillance, VACRS, ADAP data, Division of Disease Prevention, Virginia Department of Health, April 2013

  40. Ryan White Data: Viral Suppression (<200 C/ML)* *% of those with at least 1 care marker in year Source: Surveillance, VACRS, ADAP data, Division of Disease Prevention, Virginia Department of Health, April 2013

  41. Treatment Cascade: Thoughts • 2012 data is still preliminary – CDC recommends 15-18 months after end of year before finalizing surveillance data • Data reporting issues will impact numbers – electronic lab reporting may affect timeliness and completeness, as will other data system improvements

  42. Future Directions: Viral Suppression

  43. University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita Viral Suppression Project Paulette Phipps

  44. University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita • 3500 patient Internal Medicine Clinic with approximately 1100 HIV+ patients • 4 of our 5 medical providers are AAHIVM certified • Main clinic located in Wichita, KS with 3 satellite clinics to cover 100 of the 105 Kansas counties • UKSM-W is a Part B medical and medical case management provider and Part C & D grantee/provider

  45. University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita

  46. University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita • Our clinic currently uses Allscripts EHR with a bi-directional interface for laboratory results • Integration of bi-directional interface made it feasible to track lab data • Starting in 2011 viral load suppression and clinic viral load for those in care were calculated • In 2012 Quality Management Team created a project to increase the number of patients with undetectable viral load by 5% to 750 patients

  47. University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita • 2012 Viral Load Suppression Project • Included all 1106 patients seen for on outpatient ambulatory medical care (OPAMC)visit in 2012 • Suppression was defined as the most recent viral load lab value was <200copies/mL • Only those prescribed HAART were assessed and counseled but clinicians and case managers were advised regarding viral load counts

  48. University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita • Where we started and what we did • At the beginning of January 2012 had 658 of our 1056 current patients who were virally suppressed • Identified clients who had viral loads above 100,000copies/mL to receive immediate counseling • Identified Medical Case Managers (MCM) and medical providers assigned to patients • Clinicians were asked to delve deeper with these patients during OPAMC visits

  49. University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita • UKSM-W MCM staff took on a greater role with struggling clients • MCM’s were asked to arrange visits or calls with client’s routinely to discuss and assess adherence • Clients struggling with barriers such as mental health, substance abuse, transportation or costs of medication were offered additional services through Part C or D or a concurrent retention in care project

  50. University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita • Patients with no case management contact or case managed outside of the UKSM-W system posed a particular challenge • MCM’s from satellite clinics and Aids Service Organizations (ASO’s) were contacted by QM staff to alert them to the current adherence concerns and lab values • Part C case management staffers, QM staff and clinic nursing staff tried to engage those clients who did not receive CM services to address adherence issues
