CONSULTATION SERVICE
Wyoming AIDS Education and Training Center provides an email consultation service for health care providers with questions about the care of HIV-infected and at-risk patients. The service is free and confidential and provides timely information in an easy to access method.

Questions can be sent to: Anna Kinder

Why an email consultation service specific to HIV infection?
Information about HIV infection and AIDS is expanding so rapidly that only the most invested clinicians can keep up.
Morbidity and mortality in HIV can be reduced when the most up to date care is provided.
As new therapies, resources, and information about HIV develop, clinical care becomes more complex.
A fast, easily accessible consultation resource can support delivery of the best care possible.

How does email consultation work?
The clinician sends questions to the Wyoming AETC address.
The question is reviewed by the program director who forwards it to another consultative clinician with specific expertise in that area.
A response is generated and sent back to the inquirer.
Responses to non-emergent issues will generally be made within 48 hours during weekdays.

How is confidentiality assured?
Clinicians are asked to work questions in a manner that protects the patients identity.
No names should be transmitted with questions.
Questions and responses stay within the system.
