To identify this population, most studies using EHR or claims databases start with diagnostic codes, which can result in misclassification without further refinement using drug or laboratory data. Furthermore, given that antiretrovirals now have indications for both HIV and COVID-19 (ie, ritonavir in nirmatrelvir\/ritonavir), new phenotyping methods are needed to better capture people living with HIV. Therefore, we created a generalizable and innovative method to robustly identify people living with HIV, preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) users, postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) users, and people not living with HIV using granular clinical data after the emergence of COVID-19.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The primary aim of this study was to use computational phenotyping in EHR data to identify people living with HIV (cohort 1), PrEP users (cohort 2), PEP users (cohort 3), or \u201cnone of the above\u201d (people not living with HIV; cohort 4) and describe COVID-19\u2013related characteristics among these cohorts.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We used diagnostic and laboratory measurements and drug concepts in the National Clinical Cohort Collaborative to create a computational phenotype for the 4 cohorts with confidence levels.

Most people living with HIV were identified by a combination of medical conditions, laboratory measurements, and drug exposures (74,809\/132,664, 56.4%), followed by laboratory measurements and drug exposures (15,241\/132,664, 11.5%) and then by medical conditions and drug exposures (14,595\/132,664, 11%). A higher proportion of people living with HIV experienced COVID-19\u2013related hospitalization (4650,132,664, 3.5%) or mortality (828\/132,664, 0.6%) and all-cause mortality (2083\/132,664, 1.6%) compared to other cohorts.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Using an extensive phenotyping algorithm leveraging granular data in an EHR repository, we have identified people living with HIV, people not living with HIV, PrEP users, and PEP users.
