- Initiate anal cancer screening at age 35 for men who have sex with men with HIV.
- Multiple screening methods and intervals were evaluated to guide recommendations.
- Without screening, the model projected 4,064 anal cancer cases and 680 deaths over the lifetime of 100,000 men.
- Anal cancer incidence in MSM with HIV was approximately 45 times higher compared to men without HIV.
- Value-based prioritization may optimize screening use and resource allocation.
