Description
Karen Kolmodin MacDonell and co-authors price a tailored training program that brings youth HIV clinic staff to solid motivational interviewing skill. Their 2026 study starts from a delivery gap: brief workshops expose providers to the counseling method but rarely build real competence. Their program layers targeted support strategies onto the training, tuned for adolescent HIV care.
Working backward from training and personnel records, the team costed the path from beginner to intermediate or expert level. The base estimate lands near sixty-three hundred dollars per staff member. Sensitivity checks tested how the figure moves with assumptions. The authors find the cost in line with other serious training models, which supports the program's case for wider adoption in youth clinics.
