1 Narrowing the Gap in Vaccine Coverage Among Adults

2 Educational Learning Objectives At the conclusion of this presentation, the participant should be able to: Indicate the recommendations for current vaccines and vaccine schedules for adults Indicate the current burden of vaccine-preventable diseases among adults Identify profiles of specific patients at greatest risk for these vaccine-preventable diseases Implement strategies for improving immunization rates within one’s clinical practice, taking into account current immunization schedules and guidelines Address immunization barriers frequently encountered during patient/caregiver communications regarding safety, efficacy, and possible misinformation

70 Barriers to Adult Immunization Lack of coordination of adult immunization activities Lack of public knowledge Lack of provider recommendations for immunization Financial impediments to vaccinations Lack of access to, and utilization of, health care services by adults Lack of utilization of reminder or assessment systems Racial/ethnic disparities Health literacy Concern about adverse events Religious barriers Lack of trust of the scientific community Belief in misguided non-medical advice Adapted from National Vaccine Advisory Committee. Public Health Reports. 2012;127(S1):1-127.

71 Improving Vaccination Rates– Provider Issues Know the facts Recommend vaccinations to your patients Get organized and use systems approaches –Ensure offering and administration of vaccines  Automatic processes (standing orders) that empower nurses are effective  Address convenience, efficiency, durability  Electronic clinical decision-support systems  Immunization information system (registry) Evaluate and provide feedback Consider new paradigms –New venues –Extend vaccination season Practice what we preach (get vaccinated!)

82 Expanding Access Consider new paradigms –New venues, walk-in clinics –Extended hours for vaccinations –Extend vaccination season –Link Tdap and PPSV23 to influenza during expanded access Nichol KL. Cleve Clin J Med. 2006;73:1009-1015.

83 Additional Considerations for Your Practice For patients who come in for routine visits –Don’t miss opportunities to vaccinate –Screen for vaccination status –Use standing orders For patients who don’t come in routinely –Use outreach reminders: autodialing, texting, online patient portal –Expand access to make it convenient for all patients to get vaccines Communicate with patients about VPD outbreaks in the community Identify and empower a vaccine champion in the office Use flu season as a time to make a concerted focus on immunizations

84 Vaccine Education–Consider Your Audience Cognitive Style Main EffectVerbal ExpressionApproach Denialist Disbelieves scientific facts, despite overwhelming evidence, prone to conspiracy theories “I don’t believe what the data show, I don’t believe the vaccine is safe” Provide consistent messaging repeatedly over time from trustworthy sources Provide educational materials Solicit questions Avoid hard sell approach Use motivational interviewing Innumerate Cannot understand or has difficulty with numbers, probabilities, or risks “One in a million risk sounds high, for sure I’ll be the 1 that has a side effect, I’ll avoid the vaccine” Provide nonmathematical information, analogies, or comparators using a more holistic or emotive approach Adapted from Poland C, Poland G. Vaccine. 2011;29:6145-6148.

85 Vaccine Education–Consider Your Audience Cognitive Style Main EffectVerbal ExpressionApproach Fear-based Decision making based on fears “I heard that vaccines are harmful and I’m not going to get them” Understand source of fear Provide consistent positive approach Show risks in comparison to other daily risks Demonstrate risks of not receiving vaccines Use social norming approaches Heuristic Often appeals to availability heuristic “I remember GBS happened in 1977 after the flu vaccines, that must be common, and therefore I’m not getting a flu vaccine” Point out inconsistencies and fallacy of heuristic thinking Provide education materials Appeal to other heuristics Adapted from Poland C, Poland G. Vaccine. 2011;29:6145-6148.

86 Vaccine Education–Consider Your Audience Cognitive Style Main EffectVerbal ExpressionApproach Bandwagoning Primarily influenced by what others are doing/saying “If others are refusing the vaccine, there must be something to it, I’m going to skip getting the vaccine” Understand primary influencers Point out logical inconsistencies Use social norming and self- efficacy approaches Analytical Left brain thinking, facts are paramount “I want to see the data so I can make a decision” Provide data as requested Review analytically with patient Adapted from Poland C, Poland G. Vaccine. 2011;29:6145-6148.

87 Communicating with Adults About Recommended Vaccines Expand the spectrum of vaccine education Understand vaccine psychology and cognitive decision making Learn from other health education endeavors Expand the intended audience Expand the platform of vaccine education Poland C, Poland G. Vaccine. 2011;29:6145-6148.

88 Economics of Vaccination Orenstein W, et al. Clin Pharmacol Ther. 2007;82(6):764-768. Freed G, et al. Pediatrics. 2009;124:S459-465. AAP. https://www2.aap.org/immunization/pediatricians/pdf/Vacc_survival_insert.pdf. Accessed March 2012. Costs –Vaccine purchase price –Non-vaccine costs  Vaccine administration, ordering, storage, record keeping, insurance against vaccine loss Reimbursements –Private insurers  Variation in provider purchase prices and payer reimbursement –Incentives  “Pay for Performance” (HEDIS, other quality measures) –Medicare, Medicaid –Affordable Care Act

89 Summary The burden of vaccine-preventable diseases in the US is greatest among adults Substantial improvement in adult immunization coverage is needed Educate adults about recommended vaccines –Individualize your approach –Address misconceptions and concerns about vaccine safety –Your recommendation makes a difference! Stay current with the immunization schedule and recommendations Establish an immunization champion in your practice Identify and address barriers Implement organizational and systems strategies
