To determine the acceptability and feasibility of offering HIV testing based on IC and behavioral and origin criteria in Primary Care (PC). Design: Cross-sectional study in a convenience sample. Location: Six PC centers in Spain. Participants: The inclusion criteria were: patients between 16 and 65 years old who presented at least one of the proposed ICs and/or at least one of the proposed behavioral and/or origin criteria. A total of 388 patients participated. Intervention: HIV serology was offered to all patients who met the inclusion criteria. Main measurements: Description of IC frequency, behavioral and origin criteria. Prevalence of HIV infection. Level of acceptability and feasibility of the HIV screening based on IC and behavioral and origin criteria. Results: A total of 174 patients had an IC (44.84%). The most common behavioral criterion was: having unprotected sex at some time in life with people who did not know their HIV status (298; 76.8%). Four HIV+ patients (1.03%) were diagnosed. All had an IC and were men who had sex with men. The level of acceptability in PC was high. Conclusions: Offering HIV testing to patients with IC and behavioral criteria is feasible and effective in PC.spahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/HIVAIDSDiagnosisIndicator conditionsMissed opportunitiesPrimary careEarly DiagnosisSpainAdultHumansMass ScreeningCross-Sectional StudiesHIV InfectionsMalePilot ProjectsFemaleHealth Risk BehaviorsPrimary Health CarePrevalenceresearch articleAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International28629887503159-16510.1016/j.aprim.2017.02.0081578-1275Atencion Primariaopen accessPrevalenciaConductas de Riesgo para la SaludFemeninoInfecciones por VIHDiagnóstico PrecozMasculinoEstudios TransversalesProyectos PilotoHumanosTamizaje MasivoAtención Primaria de SaludAdultoEspaña2-s2.0-85020766680428975700005L616844047
