SPEAKER
Nathan Boonstra, MD, UnityPoint Health, Des Moines
TARGET AUDIENCE
Healthcare professionals that provide vaccines to adolescents or support healthcare professionals who do, including family care physicians, pediatricians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, and other clinical support staff.
EDUCATIONAL NEED
This CME activity will address the practice gap of providers not implementing the “announcement approach” to increase HPV vaccination. The announcement approach is an evidence-based approach to increase HPV vaccination.
Many providers currently say to their adolescent patients due for vaccination a phrase like “Molly needs two required vaccines today. The HPV vaccine is optional and could be done later.” Here is an example of the announcement approach: “Molly needs three vaccines today to protect against meningitis, HPV cancers, and whooping cough. She will get those at the end of the visit.”
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Explain the importance of HPV vaccination for adolescents for HPV and cancer prevention.
- Implement the announcement approach to increase HPV vaccination rates in their practice.
The AAFP has reviewed HPV Vaccination Updates and deemed it acceptable for up to 1.00 Live AAFP Prescribed credit(s). Term of Approval is from 06/12/2025 to 06/12/2025. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
