Provider Recommendation and HPV Vaccination

"The local-tailored approach will be guided by a structured process involving the following: (1) convening a local HPV vaccine project team, (2) conducting a local diagnostic process to identify top barriers, (3) selecting from a menu of intervention options that will be offered in this study, categorized by core function (i.e., the forms and functions menu) that address top local barriers, and (4) deploying the selected interventions. The barrier assessment and intervention customization are key processes for the local-tailored strategy, which allow clinics to devote resources to respond to unique local barriers in addition to common barriers."

"The prescribed strategy is the standard implementation approach used by most health systems. Our prescribed approach will be guided by the evidence-based, award-winning 4 Pillars™ Practice Transformation Program for improving vaccination rates in the outpatient setting. The 4 Pillars™ address 4 main functions, i.e., convenience, communication, office systems, and motivation to guide the selection of interventions. For adolescent HPV vaccination, the 4 Pillars has demonstrated moderate effectiveness."
