HIV Practice Transformation Project
Overview
MATEC is excited to celebrate over nine years of partnerships with clinics across the Midwest in our HIV Practice Transformation (PT) project. PT supports clinics to increase their capability to implement system-level changes and enhance clinical practice surrounding HIV prevention and care. We focus on improving HIV primary care through collaboration, strong leadership, and quality improvement.
PT clinics receive coaching to improve HIV prevention and/or care services. Each participating clinic has a dedicated PT coach, and joins a learning collaborative to network and access the latest HIV resources and training. The project also supports leveraging data to improve clinical outcomes and patient experiences, providing training to meet clinic needs, and linking clinics to community resources and evidence-based practices that support systems-level improvement
