Targeted Vaccinations: Assessment & Feedback for Providers

Task Force Finding*

Provider assessment and feedback involve evaluating the performance of providers in delivering one or more vaccinations to client populations and giving this information to providers.

The Task Force finds insufficient evidence to determine the effectiveness of this intervention when delivered alone in increasing influenza, pneumococcal polysaccharide, or hepatitis B vaccination coverage among high-risk adults, because only one study, with fair quality of execution, was identified.
