| Popis: | CO-PrIDE was a three-year Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) demonstration project to increase access to PrEP for men who have sex with men and transgender people in the Denver/Aurora Metropolitan Statistical Area. CO-PrIDE implemented a multi-level framework featuring collaboration between health systems and community organizations to link clients to PrEP prescribers and provide support services intended to help clients overcome socioeconomic barriers to PrEP uptake. These services included payment assistance, insurance navigation, and healthcare navigation. CO-PrIDE implemented a participatory mixed-methods evaluation to understand the services associated with PrEP uptake.From January 2016 to December 2018, navigators screened 10,129 clients for PrEP and offered supportive services. The results indicated that clients who received payment assistance were more likely to accept a PrEP prescription (aPR = 3.52, p.0001). Additionally, clients were more likely to receive a PrEP prescription through a co-located health system model, meaning the clinical provider is located with the PrEP Navigator (aPR = 3.78, p.001).The primary factors associated with increased PrEP uptake included co-location of navigation and clinical PrEP services and providing navigation to payment assistance programs. The evaluation results suggest that a multi-level framework that includes diverse support services is needed to implement a sustainable PrEP program. |
