In this episode, Roger Bedimo, MD, MS, FACP, discusses strategies to overcome health disparities to improve PrEP uptake, including:

• Targeting key populations that would benefit from PrEP but have low rates of uptake, such as transgender women and people who inject drugs
• Addressing intersectionality
• Overcoming implicit bias
• Addressing PrEP inequity by geographic region
• Expanding PrEP uptake by expanding HCPs who prescribe it
• Improving PrEP education for both patients and HCPs
