Preference for HIV testing among community residents in Yunnan Province, China: results from a discrete choice experiment
Community residents preferred an HIV testing service run by physicians in high-level health care institutions with excellent confidentiality, low cost, and available support services. Confidentiality remained the most important attribute of the HIV testing service. Worrying that others know the test results is a significant factor influencing testing decision-making and the uptake of testing services. Adjusting the model of community-based HIV testing services according to the preferences of the target population could make it more efficient and effective for the general public, allowing for early detection of HIV infection.
