title: [Experience of counseling and testing on human immunodeficiency virus implementation in the practice of general practitioners].
abstract: We described experience on implementation of HIV counseling and testing in routine practice of 36 family clinics in 4 regions. Overall from July 2012--till February 2014 (included), the services of counseling and testing were provided to 2 535 clients; 15 of them were found to be HIV-positive. According to data obtained, 40% who tested positive were provided with further services (registered at the AIDS centers, received CD4, prescribed ART). While implementing counseling and testing in GPs practice we found that there are some problems with most at risk groups identification; reporting documents are complicated and need much time to be filled, so there are many mistakes were found; also, there is no clear and effective mechanism of getting accurate and validate information by GPs about patients who were found to be HIV-positive from AIDs Centers, as for now family doctors get this information mainly from their patients.
