Pillar 1: Diagnose all Ohioans with HIV as early as possible after infection.
Activities supporting this strategy:• Improved, more accessible, and routine HIV testing• Immediately connecting people with HIV to care
services• Connecting those who test negative to appropriate
prevention services

Diagnose: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats:
Funded QI projects regarding retention and health literacy in system navigation.
More shared decision-making and co-creation with community members.
Health literacy demands we put on clients.
More transparency on the part of organizations regarding changes (eg, case manager turnover and access).
Lack of navigation once diagnosed.
Providing overall healthy living to prevent comorbidities.
To create a one-stop-shop for services and create more convenience for individuals and coordinate.
HIV Legislation in the state of Ohio – comes with stigma, lack of routine testing in PC settings.
Lack of trust.
Lack of diversity of providers

Achieving this target requires:
• Promptly linking individuals newly diagnosed with HIV to care and treatment, including through rapid start treatment programs;
• Finding innovative and effective ways to re-engage Ohioans who are aware of their infection but not receiving HIV care and treatment; and
• Supporting those already in care who have not yet achieved viral suppression to achieve control of the virus.
Pillar 2: Treat people in Ohio living with HIV rapidly and effectively to reach sustained viral suppression.

Achieving this target requires:
Pillar 4: Respond quickly to potential HIV outbreaks to get needed prevention and treatment services to Ohioans who need them.
• Using data to identify where HIV is spreading most rapidly and guide decision-making to address prevention, care, and treatment needs
• Supporting jurisdictions to establish local teams committed to the success of the EHE plan who will work with the community to design & develop tailored plans to expand HIV prevention and treatment services
• Increasing investments in geographic hotspots

Focusing on behavior of individuals over systemic factors which may influence outcomes.
Potential deficit in lab capacity for molecular testing.
Community and education in molecular surveillance.
Increasing SSP availability in more geographies.
Addressing social determinants.
