In addition, there is a demonstrated need for physicians to counsel patients on PrEP to achieve military readiness. Results from the 2018 Health Related Behaviors Survey indicate 21.8% of U.S. service members were at high risk for human immunodeficiency virus. This improvement project aimed to assess deficiencies in providers\u2019 knowledge before and after an educational intervention and describe policies clinics can adopt to adhere to CDC recommendations.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A pre-intervention survey was distributed to providers at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Gynecologic Surgery and Obstetrics clinic. Based on results, an educational lecture and standardized intake form were developed. Following the intervention, a post-survey was distributed to providers. A chart review was performed to determine whether PrEP counseling increased following the intervention.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Forty-seven gynecologic providers were sent a pre- and post-intervention survey. Thirty-seven individuals completed the pre-intervention survey (response rate 78.72%), whereas 18 people completed the post-intervention survey (response rate 38.30%). Descriptive analysis suggested comfort counseling on PrEP, comfort with Defense Health Agency guidance on PrEP, and knowledge of PrEP all increased. In terms of the chart review, 81 charts were reviewed pre- and post-intervention. Although we failed to meet our target counseling rate of 70%, the number of patients who were counseled on or prescribed PrEP following our intervention was statistically significant (P\u2009=\u2009.013).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>This improvement project increased provider knowledge and comfort with PrEP, but only marginally affected behavior changes among providers. This failure may be related to the specific clinic in which the study was implemented. Further research is needed to facilitate routine counseling of PrEP among military women\u2019s health care providers.<\/jats:p>\n
