Receipt of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis
Primary care is predominantly responsible for the administration
of PrEP. Together, the primary care team
will deliver the PrEP package, which includes PrEP medication
and counseling for risk reduction and medication
adherence. Care teams will likely need considerable support
during their initial implementation of PrEP. Lessons
learned from demonstration projects and effectiveness
trials about the implementation process will need to be
quickly synthesized and distributed in user-friendly formats.
Professional networks can provide informational
and persuasive messages concerning PrEP adoption to
targeted end users. Finally, as more care teams, health
centers, and delivery systems adopt PrEP, opportunities
will arise for peer-to-peer organizational learning12,13
around PrEP implementation and sustainability.
