OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence interval; VL: viral load; HAB: HIV/AIDS Bureau measure

^*Separate multivariate logistic regression models were fit for each step of the CoC. Successfully completing the step was the event. Each model included site as a stratification factor. In addition to the variables shown: the “HAB met” model also included confidence about ability to keep a medical appointment; the “Prescribed Therapy” model also included BSI Somatization, BSI Depression, BSI Anxiety, and the BSI general symptoms index; the “Achieving VL suppression 50% of the time” model also included living arrangement, years HIV+, and alcohol use.
