Testing rates were calculated by taking mean numbers of registered patients in the month of April in each relevant year.

*Collaborative diagnosed HIV prevalence data was estimated from Middle Superior Output Area HIV prevalence map.30

†High performers defined as practices that have increased their testing by over 50%.

‡Non-responding practices are those with no change, or a decrease, in their testing.
