The Health Resources and Services Administration HIV/AIDS Bureau together with the National Quality Center (NQC) have teamed up on a national retention campaign like no other; a campaign where you can have an immediate impact over the health and well-being of your HIV patients. We will be focusing on the simple idea that when patients stay in care they get the services that they need, leading to healthier people and stronger communities.
If you are looking for a way to make a greater difference in the lives of your patients here is your chance. Join us. Join our community of learners.
This year, NQC is celebrating it’s 10 year anniversary of providing quality management technical assistance and coaching to Ryan White grantees. Click here to check out Clemens Steinbock’s blog posting at the AETC blog!

The Latest CAREWare Build, 594, is Now Available!
The new build contains a number of new features in addition to enabling the in+care Campaign performance measure #2 – medical visit frequency. HRSA HAB strongly urges you to upgrade if you can so that you can use the new RSR client lookup feature! Please visit: http://hab.hrsa.gov/manageyourgrant/careware.html to upgrade. It should genuinely assist you in cleaning up your data and filling in some holes before you submit your RSR.
Attending all medical appointments during the first year of HIV care doubled survival rates for years afterwards, regardless of baseline CD4 cell count or use of ART.
