The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of Checkup Coach, an app-based coaching intervention to improve provider communication about HPV vaccination, by offering the app to providers in 7 primary care clinics in a large integrated delivery system. Participating providers attended a 1-h interactive virtual workshop that taught high-quality HPV vaccine recommendation practices. For the following 3 months, providers used the app for ongoing communication assessments, tailored tips for addressing parents' concerns, and a dashboard of their clinic's HPV vaccination rates. Online surveys assessed pre- and post-intervention changes in providers' perceptions and communication practices. The percentage of providers reporting high-quality HPV vaccine recommendation practices increased from baseline to follow-up. Providers also reported higher HPV vaccine-related knowledge, self-efficacy, and shared commitment at 3 months. Providers agreed that the app was easy to use, a convenient way to get vaccination data, and a tool they would recommend. Our app-based coaching intervention demonstrated feasibility and warrants additional evaluation as a novel mode for training providers to improve their HPV vaccine communication.
