Clients in Uganda accessing preferred differentiated antiretroviral therapy models achieve higher viral suppression and are less likely to miss appointments: a cross‐sectional analysis

The Uganda Ministry of Health recommends facility‐ and community‐based differentiated antiretroviral therapy (DART) models to support person‐centred care for eligible clients receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART). Healthcare workers assess client eligibility for one of six DART models upon initial enrolment; however, client circumstances evolve, and their preferences are not routinely adjusted. We developed a tool to understand the proportion of clients accessing preferred DART models and compared the outcomes of clients accessing preferred DART models to the outcomes of clients not receiving preferred DART models.
