Impart: Provider-Assisted HIV Partner Notification

Subjects receive counseling about partner notification and are assisted in identifying all their partners and choosing a notification method for each partner. Subjects have the option to: 1) disclose their HIV status to their partner(s) by themselves (self-tell), 2) disclose their HIV status to their partner(s) with a healthcare provider present (tell together), or 3) have their partner(s) notified confidentially by a disease notifier (anonymous provider referral), who will locate partners, notify them of potential HIV exposure, and offer them HIV testing. Partners with an initial reactive HIV screening test will be referred to care and treatment services.
