Abstrakt: | Background: The association between illicit opioid use and prescription opioid misuse and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) has not been examined recently. Our study aimed to explore differences in STI/HIV care, and delivery of recommended testing and diagnoses among patients with and without opioid use disorder (OUD). Methods: Using 2019 MarketScan commercial claims data, we identified 15- to 44-year-old male and female patients, to assess the percentages of STI/HIV diagnoses (using International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification ) and screening (using Current Procedure Terminology codes) among patients with or without OUD diagnoses codes. We further assessed STI/HIV testing and diagnoses by demographic factors. Results: We identified 24,724 patients with OUD codes among 7.31 million patients. Both STI/HIV testing and diagnoses were significantly ( P < 0.05) higher among patients with OUD codes versus without: testing percentages were 16.81% versus 12.93% for chlamydia, 22.31% versus 16.62% for gonorrhea, 15.26% versus 7.61% for syphilis, and 18.18% versus 7.60% for HIV; diagnoses were 0.80% versus 0.35% for chlamydia, 0.30% versus 0.11% for gonorrhea, 0.23% versus 0.07% for syphilis, and 0.74% versus 0.33% for HIV. Similarly, among 0.53 million 15- to 24-year-old females who received services suggestive of sexual activity, chlamydia testing was significantly ( P < 0.05) higher among patients with OUD codes versus without (59.78% vs. 55.66%). Conclusions: Patients with OUD codes have higher percentages of STI/HIV testing and diagnoses codes compared with those without OUD codes. Clinicians may want to consider a comprehensive multidisciplinary (OUD and STI prevention) approach in patient care and provide recommended STI/HIV screening among patients with OUD if not performed.
