Figure 1: Barriers to accessing testing and treatment for HIV in MSM and interventions aimed at addressing the different barriers The barriers are divided into three different levels: patient, healthcare provider, and institutional/policy. The different barriers are connected to each level they affect through arrows (patient=blue, healthcare provider=red, and institutional/policy=green). Each barrier can affect one or more levels. The interventions are linked to the barrier they seek to address through black arrows if identified as such in the literature, or purple and yellow if identified as addressing a barrier through interviews.
