    Attention COACH STUDY participants:

    The principal investigators of the study request that you use the official version of the modified score here.

    Denver HIV Risk Score

    Predicts probability of undiagnosed HIV infection.

    IMPORTANT

    This calculator includes inputs based on race, which may or may not provide better estimates, so we have decided to make race optional. See here for more on our approach to addressing race and bias on MDCalc.

    For the same other inputs, this calculator estimates higher risk of HIV prevalence in Hispanic and Black patients.
