Recently signed in Denver, the Paris Declaration demonstrates a collective resolution to end AIDS by continually monitoring these goals. However siloed data and in/out migration results in poor capacity to track population level care indicators for persons living with HIV (PLWH). Surveillance should not only enumerate PLWH but also support prevention and care programming (1). We designed and implemented the HIV Data to Care Tool to describe the continuum, from case finding to HIV care. This study describes a system to combine data sources to inform local HIV surveillance, outreach, and care. Development objectives included targeted community and clinical interventions and evaluation, user defined reports to identify subpopulation disparities, and a persistent data visualization readily available to stakeholders.
Objective
To describe Denver Public Health’s model for designing a business intelligence (BI) tool for HIV surveillance and outreach and the impact after implementation.
