Summary
This trial will explore how financial incentives + communication training can increase HPV vaccine uptake in clinics.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for pediatric or family medicine clinics in North Carolina with less than a 72% HPV vaccine initiation rate and at least 50 patients aged 9-12. Clinics must have at least two providers offering the HPV vaccine and no recent financial incentives or communication training aimed at increasing vaccination rates.
What is being tested?
The study is testing if giving clinics financial rewards, along with communication training, increases the number of kids getting the HPV vaccine. Some clinics will just get training, while others will also receive money based on their performance plus monthly progress reports.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-medical interventions (financial incentives and communication training), there are no direct medical side effects to participants. However, it's important to monitor for any unintended consequences that these incentives might have on clinic practices.
