“Overcoming Challenges to Providing Adult Immunizations in Healthcare Systems”
Strategically executed preventative care initiatives and timely medical interventions can have significant effect on care outcomes, which can be particularly valuable under outcome-based reimbursement models. Adult immunization initiatives have the potential to be a cost-effective preventative care strategy for hospitals. As the healthcare landscape becomes more focused on population health management, health systems can optimize the use of evidence-based strategies including adult vaccines to improve outcomes for vulnerable patient populations like adults over the age of 65 years.
Register for this webinar to gain insight into:
- Using data to conduct population-level assessments to determine where vaccine coverage can be improved
- Getting involved with adult immunization advocates (e.g., medical associations, public health departments, etc.), which can offer resources and support to improve adult immunization rates
- Forming multidisciplinary teams of providers to champion adult immunization at your facility and actively engage in improving coverage levels
