The Impact of Clinic-level Financial Incentives on HPV Vaccine Communication and Uptake
This trial will look at the impact of clinic-level financial incentives to improve provider communication and increase HPV vaccine uptake. Some clinics will receive communication training. Other clinics will receive the same training and a clinic-level financial incentive program with a monthly data feedback report to increase HPV vaccine uptake.
⁃ Clinics are eligible if they are a pediatric or family medicine clinic in North Carolina that in the past year had:
• less than 72% HPV vaccine initiation rate,
• greater than or equal to 50 patients ages 9-12
• greater than or equal to 2 HPV vaccine providers
• no clinic or provider-level financial incentive programs to increase system, clinic, or provider HPV vaccination rates among patients aged 9-12 in the past two years, and
• no HPV vaccine provider communication trainings in the past six months.
⁃ Children's medical records will be eligible to be included in the dataset if children:
• are between the ages of 9-12 years at baseline and
• are attributed to a participating clinic at 12- or 24-month follow-up.
