Brief Summary

This study will test the effectiveness of clinician-focused health IT-based decision support, family-focused health IT-based decision support, and a combination of both efforts, in increasing HPV and other adolescent vaccine rates among adolescent girls. We hypothesize that a combination of clinician-focused clinical decision support and family-focused decision support will be most effective.

Detailed Description

* Clinician-focused intervention includes an electronic health record-based decision support mechanism including reminders, education, audit and feedback on vaccination success.
