Time spent in jail can provide opportunities to deliver comprehensive medical care, including screening and treatment for HIV; however, engagement in HIV care postrelease is often fragmented. Identifying ways to improve the transition of care from jail to community for people with HIV (PWH) may help with engagement in HIV care postrelease. We evaluated the current HIV care transition processes of one jail in Massachusetts and identified change ideas to facilitate improving the transition of care from the jail to the community for PWH. We conducted qualitative interviews in 2018–2019 with incarcerated men with HIV (n = 17), jail staff (n = 7), and community providers (n = 6) to understand the processes of HIV care prerelease from the jail and engagement in care on release. Data from these interviews and quality improvement tools were used to identify ways to improve the release process for PWH, such as using a release planning checklist, to help ensure that a 30-day supply of HIV medication and an appointment with a community provider within 30 days of release were provided. We identified communication process inefficiencies related to knowing release dates between the HIV care team and case managers that prevented providing HIV medications on release. We worked with jail administrators to find ways to improve the prerelease planning process, which is vital to the continuity of successful HIV care. The use of quality improvement methods generated a list of testable change ideas to improve the release planning process to better align with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines, which has implications for PWH and public health.
