Engaging Clinical Champions to Improve HPV Vaccination

This trial will compare two ways to improve communication about HPV vaccination in primary care. The research team will work with primary care clinics. Some clinics will receive communication training from an outside expert. Other clinics will receive the same training from a vaccine champion from their healthcare system.

This trial will enroll clinics and intervene with clinical staff. We will use vaccination data from children to evaluate intervention effectiveness. We will not enroll children or interact with them directly.Inclusion CriteriaClinics are eligible if they:provide primary care to children ages 9-12specialize in pediatrics or family medicineChildren's medical records will be eligible to be included in the dataset if children:are between the ages of 9-12 years at baselineare attributed to a participating clinic at 12-month follow-upExclusion criteriaClinics are excluded if they:do not provide primary care to children ages 9-12have a specialty other than pediatrics or family medicineChildren's medical records will be excluded if children:are not between the ages of 9-12 years at baselineare not attributed to a participating clinic at 12-month follow-upare receiving hospice/palliative care, are pregnant, or have a history of HPV vaccine contraindications
