Mobile Coaching to Improve HPV Vaccine Delivery

Evaluating the Feasibility of a Mobile Coaching Intervention to Improve HPV Vaccine Delivery

The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility of using Checkup Coach, a mobile coaching intervention, to improve the way that primary care providers recommend HPV vaccination to adolescent patients and their parents. To conduct this feasibility study, the investigators will deliver the Checkup Coach intervention to 20 Kaiser Permanente Washington primary care providers who routinely recommend HPV vaccine to adolescent patients. The investigators will use a single-arm, pre-post design. Participating primary care providers will attend a 1-hour virtual communication workshop and then use a mobile phone app to receive additional coaching for 12 weeks. Providers will complete surveys at three time points: before the communication workshop, immediately after the workshop, and at 12-week follow-up. Surveys will assess changes in providers' self-reported HPV vaccine recommendation practices and beliefs about HPV vaccine and also acceptability of the intervention. The investigators hypothesizes that providers' HPV vaccine communication will improve between baseline and 12-week follow-up.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Primary care providers who treat 11-12 year old adolescent patients in participating Kaiser Permanente Washington pediatric and family medicine practices

Exclusion Criteria:

• Primary care providers who do not treat adolescent patients
