  1. HIV Test Request Form Training Cessa Karson-Whitethorn HIV Prevention Program April 2012 (Enter) DEPARTMENT (ALL CAPS)(Enter) Division or Office (Mixed Case)

  2. Training Agenda • Introduction • Explore new form • Questions

  3. Introduction • New CDC HIV testing variables • New Oregon State Public Health Lab (OSPHL) information system • New HIV testing database: sHIVer • Implementation: May 2012

  4. Form Orientation • Page 1: Patient, specimen, requested testing and risk information • Page 1: Sent to OSPHL for any test that requires a sample sent to OSPHL • Page 2: Carbon copy of page 1 • Page 2: Detailed instructions on back

  5. Mailing Address & Test Form ID • Test Form ID: • Ten digits; no dashes. • Same number that is on labels • Reference the test form ID on specimens and corresponding forms, if necessary • This number will be entered in to sHIVer to access data the lab has entered for conventional/confirmatory tests

  6. Ask client and indicate whether or not a previous HIV test was conducted and the result of that test if known • Indicate month (mm) and year (yyyy) of known previous test. If month unknown, enter year and leave month blank.

  7. Site IDs are no longer used. Sites now have a site name that is associated with their county health department’s set up in OSPHL’s new system. Authorized ordering clinician/physician must be entered.

  8. Fill out this section for non-rapid testing • Identify the specimen source being submitted • Specimens that fall into the “other” category – check with lab to make sure they can process

  9. Negative rapid test forms do not get sent to the lab – testing sites enter data into sHIVer.

  10. Do not read this section as a checklist. • Report affirmative answers, if and only if, the client is confident of the response
