Findings
Persons of Asian racial-identity had a higher mean PrEP prescription than the other racial groups. Persons over 30 had a higher mean PrEP prescription than those 18–29.
Conclusions
Discrepancy of PrEP prescription reveals opportunities to improve PrEP delivery.
Clinical Evidence
Providers of PrEP delivery and community health nurses can enhance delivery by better electronic medical charting regarding PrEP discussion and nonadherence.
