About
The purpose of this study is to increase childhood influenza vaccination rates using the FDA licensed influenza vaccines according to national guidelines in a randomized cluster trial in which primary care offices are randomized to intervention or control with the control group receiving the intervention in the second year.
Full description
The investigators will conduct a stratified, randomized cluster trial of 20 diverse primary care practices to compare influenza vaccination rates in intervention and control sites. Intervention sites will use a package of newly developed and evidence-based techniques that will be tailored to their practice structure and culture, called the 4 Pillars Immunization Toolkit, in addition to receiving donated vaccine for early season vaccination. Control practices will not receive such assistance but will receive the intervention in the second year.
