description Health professionals in Washington State were surveyed in 1993 to assess acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) reporting knowledge, attitudes, and practices. Seventy-five percent responded. Two thirds of previous reporters were informed about the 1993 AIDS case definition and reporting requirements, but 32 percent had neglected to report. Forty-eight percent were concerned about confidentiality of reported cases. Half favored human immunodeficiency virus reporting and 21 percent opposed it. In order to promote complete and timely AIDS reporting, current and future reporters need ongoing education on reporting requirements and methods. The importance of AIDS surveillance data for community planning as well as assurance of protection of confidentiality should be emphasized.
