- Clinicians Often Fail to Test for HIV After Diagnosing AIDS-Defining Illnesses, U.S. Study Suggests (February 11, 2009)
Judy Chen, M.D., M.S.H.S., presents an analysis of 7,451 patients enrolled in private U.S. health insurance plans. The study found that clinicians frequently fail to even consider the possibility that a patient may be infected with HIV, even though the patient has been diagnosed with a potentially AIDS-defining event for which there often is virtually no other possible cause.
