We used laboratory surveillance to identify cases in all states but Idaho, where viral load reporting is not mandatory, requiring us to rely on clinic records. After complete investigation, we assigned each case one of the following dispositions: moved out of state, died, in HIV care, no evidence of HIV care, or data error.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>We identified 3866 cases with no CD4 count or viral load result in a \u226512-month period during 2012\u20132014, most (85%) of which were in Washington or Oregon. A median of 43% (range: 20%\u201367%) of cases investigated in each state had moved, 9% (0%\u201316%) had died, and 11% (8%\u201333%) were in care during the 12-month surveillance period. Only 28% of investigated cases in the region and a median of 30% (10%\u201357%) of investigated cases in each state had no evidence of care, migration, or death after investigation.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Most persons living with HIV in the Northwest United States who appear to be out of care based on laboratory surveillance are not truly out of care.
