Objectives: A targeted HIV testing strategy (TTS) through an HIV risk of exposure and indicator conditions (RE&IC) questionnaire resulted in same rate of new HIV infection diagnosis (NHID), coverage and even reduced costs compared with a universal non targeted (Non TSS) HIV testing strategy in a prior study (DRIVE 01). To compare number of New HIV/HCV Infection Diagnoses (NHID HIV/HCV) and costs two HIV/HCV testing programs in the Primary Health Care: an educational and support only initiative to enhance HIV /HCV testing (EDSUP) or EDSUP plus a resourced external program (DRIVE 03).
Methodology: Prospective, randomized 1:1, clustered, crossover study, in one Health Care Area of Madrid, Spain, comparing the implementation of two HIV testing programs, EDSUP only vs. EDSUP plus DRIVE 03 program in 4 Primary Care Centers (PCC´s). People randomized to EDSUP plus DRIVE 03 program, non HIV infected, between 18-65 years, attending to any of the 4 PCC´s, not previously included in the study will be offered to participate. HIV testing program will be evaluated by measuring absolute number of new diagnosed infections (NDI) HIV/HCV and costs. Other outcomes considered will be people assigned and offered to participate, number of HIV tests performed, coverage (HIV /HCV tests/assigned population ratio), and rate of NDI HIV/HCV per ‰ tests performed. Six months prior to randomization main outcome variables will be recorded in the 4 PPC´s. Before randomization, EDSUP will be equally implemented in the 4 PCC´s. After randomization, first six months, DRIVE 03 program will be implemented in 2 PCC´s and in the other 2 observation of interest variables will be conducted. After first 6 month study period, PCC´s will be crossover to the opposite arm of randomization. DRIVE 03 program will offer rapid HIV tests, and testing staff to conduct all study procedures. For NDI HIV/HCV, molecular epidemiology, delayed diagnosis, retention in care, HIV/HCV treatment and control/eradication will be also monitored.

DRIVE study (Diagnóstico Rápido de la Infección por VIH/HCV en España, in English Rapid HIV/HCV testing in Spain) was designed to investigate the different aspects of HIV testing. DRIVE 01 and 02 had been already completed and communicated.
This new study has been designed as a prospective randomized clustered crossover study in one Health Care Area of Madrid Spain, to compare two implementation HIV/HCV testing programs: only EDSUP vs. EDSUP plus a resourced HIV/HCV testing program which provide rapid HIV/HCV tests, and testing staff to conduct all procedures.
Four PCC´c belonging to the influenced area of Ramón y Cajal Area will be randomized 1:1 to receive sequentially any of the two HIV/HCV testing programs.
