Lessons Learned From a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Virtual Partner Services Technical Assistance Pilot Project to Respond to a Local Syphilis Outbreak.

ABSTRACT: A virtual partner services technical assistance (TA) project was piloted with the Minnesota Department of Health to address an ongoing syphilis outbreak. The TA reduced the health department's disease intervention specialist workload, achieved partner services outcomes comparable with in-person methods, and identified lessons learned to replicate with other jurisdictions.
