HPV vaccine: Bundling, vaccine registry improve rates in teens
from Medscape
A system-wide effort that included bundling the human papillomavirus vaccine with other vaccines and avoiding missed opportunities for vaccination increased HPV vaccine uptake well above the national average, according to a report published online October 5 in Pediatrics.
"By addressing provider- and system-level barriers, including avoiding missed opportunities and providing a strong recommendation, adolescent vaccination coverage rates at Denver Health have risen well above national rates, especially for HPV," write Anna-Lisa M. Farmar, M.D., MPH, from the University of Colorado, Aurora, and colleagues.
