Abstract

Engagement with the provider is basic to the involvement of the patient in HIV care. The question of whether this engagement varies by socio-demographic and psychosocial variables has taken on added significance as we work to achieve an undetectable viral load for 90% of those on antiretroviral therapy.

The question of whether this engagement varies by socio-demographic and psychosocial variables has taken on added significance as we work to achieve an undetectable viral load for 90% of those on antiretroviral therapy.
