RI Regional Partner developed HIV, hepatitis C (HCV), and STD screening protocols at PCHC. As part of a PT project quality improvement (QI) initiative, PCHC implemented electronic health records (EHR) reminders for HIV and HCV screening among at risk populations in June 2017. Although the EHR reminders resulted in little impact on HIV screening rates, HCV screening among patients born between 1945-1965 increased 8-fold in the six months following the EHR intervention. No EHR reminder was installed for STD screening despite increases in syphilis screening and extragenital STD testing.
