Emergency Departments (EDs) provide primary healthcare to many underserved persons without access to preventive healthcare elsewhere. We conducted a cross-sectional study to test the hypothesis that patients are more likely to express a willingness to accept rapid HIV testing in the ED if they lack access to preventive healthcare elsewhere. Medicaid insurance, younger age, lack of a usual place of healthcare, high perceived HIV risk, and actual HIV risk were associated with increased HIV test acceptance. These results support the need for and acceptability of rapid HIV testing in the ED particularly for individuals who may lack access to this preventive healthcare screening elsewhere.
急诊科（ED）为许多无法获得其他地方预防保健服务的服务不足人群提供初级医疗服务。我们进行了一项横断面研究，以检验以下假设：如果患者无法在其他地方获得预防保健服务，他们更有可能愿意在急诊科接受快速 HIV 检测。医疗补助保险、年龄较小、没有常规医疗服务地点、感知 HIV 风险高以及实际 HIV 风险与更高的 HIV 检测接受率相关。这些结果支持在 ED 进行快速 HIV 检测的必要性和可接受性，特别是对于那些可能无法在其他地方获得这种预防保健筛查的人。
