Abstract

The uptake of an opt-in system for integrating the health information of HIV-infected patients of an Australian sexual health clinic into the regional shared electronic health record (EHR) is described. A medical record audit was performed to determine the number and demographic characteristics of HIV-infected patients in the study's sexual health clinic opting in and out of inclusion in the regional shared EHR. The majority of these HIV-infected patients (70%, 95% CI: 58-79%) took up the option of including their HIV-related records into the regional shared electronic health record.
