Key Mechanisms
Mechanisms or clinical associations described in the source article.
Target Population
Patients or participants described in the source article.
Care Setting
US family medicine and internal medicine residency programs; recruitment focused on areas with high HIV prevalence.
Key Highlights
A 1-year HRSA-funded initiative supported six emerging or developing HIV residency pathways from July 2023 through June 2024.
Each selected program received $68,000 to establish or expand its pathway.
The six sites recruited 24 residents: six in family medicine and 18 in internal medicine; none had graduated when the report was written.
Faculty received monthly support through mentoring and peer-learning meetings, and the consortium developed a pathway toolkit.
The pilot evaluation assessed acceptability, feasibility, and success using process metrics and post-intervention feedback from participating faculty and residents.
