Abstract
Purpose: All U.S. states allow minors the legal right to consent for confidential sexual health services. However, federal and state insurance regulations mandate commercial health plans to provide their subscribers explanation of benefits (EOB) containing the date, cost and services received. These disclosure regulations may discourage minors from accessing confidential health services in their medical home using their insurance benefits. This study's purpose is to explore community providers' perceptions of health systems barriers and their suggested solutions for providing confidential sexual heath care for commercially-insured adolescents in their medical home.
