HPV vaccine rates remain lower than rates for other adolescent vaccines. Missed opportunities (MOs) are healthcare visits during which a patient is eligible, but does not receive a vaccine. MOs for vaccination contribute strongly to low HPV vaccination rates. This single-arm study (embedded within arm 2 of a 2-arm cluster RCT) will implement a 3-component bundle intervention together in practices that previously received standard of care. This study will test the effectiveness (and cost-effectiveness) of the bundled intervention, which trains providers in HPV vaccine communication (done through online educational modules and live office practice sessions), provides performance feedback reports (that pull from electronic health record (EHR) data, and compare participants' performance to their own previous performance and performance of others) and provider prompts (via EHR and also office staff prompts, e.g., placing Vaccine Information Statements (VISs) on desk) to reduce MOs and increase HPV vaccination rates. Throughout the intervention participants will also receive weekly text message mini-lessons that will remind participants of the project.
