The Washington,
D.C.-based American Academy of HIV Medicine and the
Chicago-based Test Positive Aware Network have announced a
partnership to enhance communication between
HIV-treating physicians and HIV communities throughout
the United States. The arrangement includes providing AAHIVM
members with TPAN's publication Positively
Aware to distribute to their patients through their
clinics and private practices.
"Part of
providing high quality care involves offering patients
up-to-date information on a variety of HIV-related
topics," says Brian Hujdich, AAHIVM's
director of professional development and credentialing,
in a press statement. "Positively Aware is a
lively mix of information and inspiration, and we are
pleased that our collaboration with TPAN enables us to
offer our members and their patients such an
outstanding resource."
AAHIVM is an
independent organization of HIV specialists and others
dedicated to promoting excellence in HIV care by supporting
health care providers in HIV medicine and to ensuring
better care for those living with AIDS and HIV
disease. (The Advocate)
