ABSTRACT
Study Objectives:
A non-food-borne hepatitis A outbreak occurred in Michigan between August 2016 and September 2019, resulting in 920 cases, 738 hospitalizations, and 30 deaths. To support the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services' efforts to increase hepatitis A vaccination rates among high-risk individuals, our multicenter health system implemented an electronic medical record (EMR)-based vaccination intervention across its nine emergency departments (ED). The primary objective of this retrospective cohort and survey analysis was to quantitatively determine whether this intervention was successful in increasing vaccination rates. The secondary objective was to qualitatively assess the attitudes towards, and barriers to use of, the computerized vaccine reminder system.
