HIV Specialist is a quarterly practice management magazine that addresses the unique issues facing frontline HIV care providers in the United States.
The publisher of HIV Specialist, the American Academy of HIV Medicine (AAHIVM), ie the nation’s leading independent organization of healthcare professionals dedicated to providing excellence in HIV care and prevention. The AAHIVM membership of practitioners and credentialed providers manage the health of the majority of people with and at risk for HIV in the United States.
The magazine’s editorial focus provides readers with credible and useful information to help them care for HIV patients across the nation. Each issue covers a specific theme that is top-of-mind for HIV providers in the many settings they serve, with helpful and actionable information for physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and HIV pharmacists alike.
Issues include topical columns, On the Frontlines, At the Forefront, In the Literature, In the News, and Best Practices—all written by and about HIV providers and researchers. Included in our practice management approach are reports on the latest research, often authored by the researchers who have done the studies on which we are reporting.
In addition, editorial content is recommended and reviewed by members of our Editorial Advisory Group, composed of physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and HIV pharmacists.
HIV Specialist reaches all AAHIVM Members and credentialed HIV Specialists™, HIV Experts™, and HIV Pharmacists™ on a quarterly basis. With a circulation of more than 12,000, HIV Specialist goes directly to health care providers, pharmacists, policymakers, industry leaders, medical students, educators, and researchers. The magazine is also distributed to the HIV advocacy community, health departments, and medical schools across the country.
Readership is composed of several provider types: physicians specializing in infectious disease, internal medicine, and family practice, as well as nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and pharmacists.
In addition to prescribing medications and providing quality care to those living with or at risk for HIV/AIDS, these health care professionals are also responsible for recommending, specifying, approving, and purchasing products and services for their facilities.
