High-risk Influenza Vaccine Alert
Alerts With Risk Information to Increase Influenza Vaccinations

Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
The CDC (Centers for Disease Control) recommends a flu vaccination to everyone aged 6+ months, with rare exception; almost anyone can benefit from the vaccine, which can reduce illnesses, missed work, hospitalizations, and death. One barrier to vaccination is a lack of "cues to action," and, in particular, the lack of direct recommendation from medical personnel; this barrier is arguably the most effectively overcome by a simple nudge of clinicians, compared with barriers such as negative attitudes toward vaccination, low perceived utility of vaccination, and less experience with having received the vaccine.
Geisinger partnered with Medial EarlySign (Medial) to develop a machine learning (ML) algorithm to help identify people at risk for serious flu-associated complications based on existing electronic health record data. Eligible at-risk patients will be randomized to an active control group (clinician will be shown a standard flu alert) or one of two experimental groups (clinician will be shown an alert indicating patient's high risk, with or without describing the patient's factors contributing to that risk).

Ages Eligible for Study
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Description
Patient Inclusion Criteria:
- Age 18+
- Have been determined to be in the top 20% of risk through Medial's ML algorithm
- Attend an appointment where the flu alert fires (Geisinger sets when flu alerts start and end--between ~9/1/2022 and ~4/30/2023, as well as the trigger conditions for the alert, which includes valid departments and visits and excludes contraindications like Guillain-Barre syndrome)
Clinician Inclusion Criteria:
- Any Geisinger clinician who sees patient-participants in our study for an appointment where their flu shot alert fires

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Standard Alert
Standard flu alert
|
Non-interruptive best practice alert in the electronic health record
|
Experimental: High-risk Alert
Flu alert that indicates patient is at high risk for flu and its complications
|
Non-interruptive best practice alert in the electronic health record
Larger alert header and body font size, use of different font colors and boldface
Alert header indicates patient is at high risk for flu and its complications; alert body indicates the percentage of risk (e.g., in the top 3% of risk)
|
Experimental: High-risk Alert with Risk Factors
Flu alert that indicates patient is at high risk for flu and its complications and presents the factors contributing to this high risk
|
Non-interruptive best practice alert in the electronic health record
Larger alert header and body font size, use of different font colors and boldface
Alert header indicates patient is at high risk for flu and its complications; alert body indicates the percentage of risk (e.g., in the top 3% of risk)
Alert body indicates the top 3 factors contributing to the high risk
