A Multilevel Approach to Increasing HPV Vaccine Initiation Among Adolescents - Part 3

May 15, 2020 updated by: University of Florida
Our project will assess the feasibility and estimate preliminary efficacy of a multilevel intervention to improve HPV vaccine series initiation among adolescents in Medicaid and CHIP. The investigators will use two intervention components: postcards and an iPad survey system. To estimate efficacy the investigators will select potential participants from Florida Medicaid and CHIP. The investigators will assess their claims for the HPV vaccine before and after the intervention.
