Read the detailed description

The primary aim of this trial is to test the effectiveness of an intervention to train primary care physicians to determine if it leads to decreased parental vaccine hesitancy. The investigators will train primary care teams with an initial training followed by telephone coaching and follow-up visits, and assess the outcomes of parental vaccine hesitancy (primary) and physician self-efficacy (secondary) at baseline and 6 months.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Academic DetailingBehavioural

    The intervention design is based on "academic detailing," an effective method of changing physician behavior. The aim of the training is effective communication with parents who are hesitant about childhood vaccinations.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Parental Vaccine Hesitancy Measure

    The investigators will contact mothers of newborns in study practices and conduct a telephone survey at two time points: baseline and 6 months. Surveys will assess parental hesitancy, parental trust in provider, and other covariates such as perceived social norms, other sources of information about vaccines, and demographic information.

    Measured: Change from Baseline in Parental Hesitancy at 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Physician Self Efficacy Measure

    Assessed via self-administered surveys of providers in all participating clinics at baseline and 6-months. The investigators will measure physician attitudes, perceived norms, intentions to change behavior, practice characteristics, and physician demographics.

    Measured: Change from Baseline in Physician Attitudes at 6 months
