The health care delivery system has changed dramatically in the past few months due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The use of virtual HIV prevention and care delivery is increasingly becoming the standard of care. This webinar showcases Iowa’s TelePrEP program. Iowa TelePrEP utilizes PrEP screening, education, and referral in statewide public health clinics and partner services to increase access to PrEP for individuals who cannot currently see a provider in their local area. Speakers will discuss innovative practices and lessons learned when implementing a telehealth program.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the opportunities that telemedicine provides to extend services to and address barriers to care in rural jurisdictions.
- Identify opportunities to leverage existing infrastructures to support service extension.
- Assess the costs and benefits of utilizing telemedicine in place of traditional service delivery models.
