It will take 8-10 minutes to describe the study. I must tell you about the study if you want to participate. You can interrupt me to ask questions or to take a break at any time. You can also stop me to end this call at any time.



The research study is about taking your prescribed medication and staying healthy. The research is being done as part of a quality improvement initiative at Virginia Medicaid. Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) is implementing the study on behalf of Virginia Medicaid. Virginia Medicaid and VCU are working together to learn about challenges that Virginia Medicaid members have in taking their prescribed medication. To do this, we are implementing and evaluating a program called Antiretroviral Improvement among Medicaid enrolleeS (AIMS). This program is designed to support members to fill HIV prescriptions. We think this support may increase how often HIV prescriptions are filled and hope that the AIMS program can improve your health and increase HIV viral suppression.


The Virginia Department of Health, University of Virginia, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Institutes of Health are also study partners. The study is funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Institutes of Health.


We are asking you to be in this research study because you may have missed an HIV prescription fill. We believe this because there is no insurance record for an HIV prescription that was expected to be filled.


Participating in this research study is voluntary. You do not have to participate unless you want to. If you do participate, you can withdraw at any time. There is no penalty of any kind if you withdraw or decide not to take part. Your decision not to take part or to withdraw will involve no penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled. If you don’t want to take part, you still have access to support from your healthcare providers, pharmacists, and health plan, along with community support services, including through the Status Neutral Service Navigation Program available through the Virginia Department of Health. The Status Neutral program provides high-impact service navigation services, including referrals to support services, to Virginians living with HIV. We can provide you information for these supports even if you choose not to take part.


If you decide to take part in this research study, you will be asked to give permission to use your health information from Medicaid insurance records, including medical services and filled prescriptions. You will also be asked to give permission to use health information from public health surveillance for lab tests. Nothing further will be asked of you.


There is a risk that you may feel upset that you don’t have the chance to receive all possible referrals and resources available through the study. There are small social or legal risks of unauthorized or unintentional disclosure of your HIV status. This risk is no greater than disclosure by a medical professional. We take many precautions to prevent this from happening, including implementing protocols on who can access to your health information, how it is stored and accessed, and verifying your identity during study procedures. There are no other known physical, financial, social, or legal risks associated with the study.


Your participation in this study is unlikely to benefit you personally. We think that your health information will help us to learn more about member adherence to HIV medication, how to promote your health, improve member support through Virginia Medicaid benefits and services, and prevent HIV transmission.







You will not be compensated for participating in this research study. If you want, we will provide you the information for your provider, pharmacy, or health plan. You will also have the opportunity to be connected to Virginia Department of Health’s Status Neutral Service Navigation program. You will not have to pay to use the Status Neutral program.


Not all participants in the study will receive the same support or in the same way. You have been selected to receive support in the way I described earlier based on characteristics of your health provider and our insurance records of how you have filled your HIV prescriptions. Other participants will be offered different resources.


As I said before, participating in this quality improvement research study is voluntary. If you decide not to participate in this study, you will receive the same Medicaid benefits that you would receive if you were not in the study. If you decide not to contribute your health information, it will not affect your relationship with your medical providers or your medical care.


About 1,000 members will participate in this study.

As I said, it will take me just a few more minutes to describe the research study. You can interrupt me to ask questions or to take a break at any time. You can also stop me to end this call at any time.


We will keep your information confidential and securely stored by limiting who will be able to access your private information. The CDC and the National Institutes of Health, which are study partners, will not have access to information that can be used to personally identify you. Your data will be stored on a secure Virginia Medicaid server.


This study has something called a Certificate of Confidentiality from the federal government to make sure we can best protect your privacy. The certificate means that we cannot be forced to tell people about your participation, even if we are asked by courts or police.


However, sometimes we cannot keep your information or participation confidential. If we find out that keeping your information or participation private could put you or someone else in danger, we may have to tell agencies to protect you or another person. Researchers may also have to give your information if the study is audited.


Personal information about you might be shared with or copied by authorized representatives from the following organizations for the purposes of managing, monitoring and overseeing this study:


  • The study Sponsor, representatives of the sponsor and other collaborating organizations

  • Representatives of VCU and the VCU Health System

  • Officials of the Department of Health and Human Services


We will not publish your identifiable information or present it to the public. At the end of the study, we will tell you the results and explain what they mean. However, we will not provide to each participant their individual research study results.


The information as part of this study will not be used or distributed for future research studies, even if identifiers are removed.


A description of this clinical trial will be available on http://www.ClinicalTrials.gov, as required by U.S. Law. This Web site will not include information that can identify you. At most, the Web site will include a summary of the results. You can search this Web site at any time.


I want to make sure that any questions you have are answered. I can answer any questions you may have right now. Dr. April Kimmel, the principal investigator evaluating the study, and other study staff can also answer your questions. They can be reached at [study email] and [study phone number].


If you think that you have not been treated fairly in the study, you can contact Dr. Kimmel and the study staff. You can also call VCU’s Office of Research and Innovation at (804) 827-2157.
