Expanded HIV Clinic-Based Mental Health Care Services: Association With Viral Suppression.
Raina AggarwalMichael PhamRebecca DillinghamKathleen A McManusPublished in: Open forum infectious diseases (2019)
PLWH who gained access to MH in 2013-2014 were more likely to have lower CD4 counts and detectable viral loads. Engagement in care did not increase with initiation of MH, but initiation of MH was associated with higher rates of viral suppression. Younger and minority patients may not have benefited as much from increased access to co-located MH and substance use services.
