| Popis: | Low-barrier care (LBC) for people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a differentiated service delivery strategy to engage people in HIV treatment who are not well-engaged in conventionally organized HIV medical care. The LBC approach is flexible, but experience suggests that the intervention has distinct core components. This review summarizes our experience implementing one model of LBC, the Max Clinic in Seattle; describes the core components of the intervention; and presents a framework for implementing low-barrier HIV care with the goal of providing a practical guide for clinical and public health leaders seeking to implement a new LBC program. A systematic approach to addressing key factors during LBC implementation can support practitioners to design an LBC approach that fits the local context while maintaining essential elements of the intervention. |
