TelePharm PrEP/PEP
Sponsor: Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center
Summary
In this study, the investigators will evaluate whether introducing a remote nurse to screen, counsel, and guide clients through HIV self-testing (via a telehealth platform) and support interested clients (via SMS) between pharmacy visits increases PrEP/PEP initiations and continuation compared to standard PrEP/PEP delivery by pharmacy providers. The investigators hypothesize that pharmacy PrEP/PEP services delivered with telehealth support will result in better service utilization and implementation outcomes compared to standard delivery and be cost-effective to implement.
