Patients' sociodemographics, PrEP prescriptions, referral to a PrEP navigator, and SHS data were extracted from the electronic health record (EHR). The analytic sample was 214 adult patients who were human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) negative and taking PrEP to prevent infection from January 2016 to December 2019. Mixed-effects negative binomial models were conducted accounting for clustering by patients' primary care providers. Documentation of SHS was associated with a higher proportion of days covered by PrEP (incidence rate ratio\u2009=\u20091.44, 95% confidence interval: 1.17\u20131.77). There was no significant effect of having a referral to the PrEP navigator on the proportion of days covered by PrEP, nor did having a referral to the PrEP navigator moderate the relationship between having SHS documented in the EHR and the proportion of days covered by PrEP. This study is the first to investigate the relationship between having sexual history documented in the EHR, referrals to a PrEP navigator, and their combined effect on the proportion of days covered by PrEP. Results of this study provide foundational evidence for future studies examining SHS as an opportunity to improve PrEP access and adherence and indicate the need for additional research exploring the value of PrEP navigators as an implementation strategy to overcome social and structural barriers to care.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1089\/apc.2023.0068","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,11]],"date-time":"2023-08-11T12:23:31Z","timestamp":1691756611000},"page":"403-415","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Associations Between Sexual History Documentation in Electronic Health Records and Referral to Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Navigator on Prescription of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis at a Multi-Site Federally Qualified Health Center"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"37","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7996-8951","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kelly W.","family":"Gagnon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Medicine, Heersink School of Medicine, The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), Birmingham, Alabama, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Robert W.S.","family":"Coulter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Behavioral and Community Health Sciences, School of Public Health, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"James E.","family":"Egan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Behavioral and Community Health Sciences, School of Public Health, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ken","family":"Ho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Medicine, School of Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mary","family":"Hawk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Behavioral and Community Health Sciences, School of Public Health, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_4_2_2","unstructured":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
