• Description:
  Progress towards the goals of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS) depends upon good stewardship of public health funding. By routinely collecting, critically analyzing, and consistently tracking data on program outcomes and efficiencies, CDC and its funded health departments can help ensure that federally funded activities support CDC’s High Impact Prevention (HIP) approach to reduce new HIV infections by maximizing the public health impact of HIV prevention efforts. HIV testing—both routine screening in health care settings and targeted testing in non-health care settings—is a critical component of any HIP HIV program; consequently, it is one of the four core activities CDC requires health departments to implement under their 12-1201 cooperative agreements. With the recent release of the Program Evaluation Branch (PEB) report, “HIV Prevention Funding Allocations at CDC-Funded State and Local Health Departments, 2010,” we are able to estimate health department spending of CDC funds on 2010 HIV testing activities and outcomes. Viewed over time, this information will enhance our understanding of how—and how well— HIV prevention programs are implementing HIP and making progress toward the goals of the NHAS. In this edition, we provide estimates of CDC funding spent by health departments to support an HIV test and to diagnose a person in health care and non-health care settings.
