Competitive Success: New Research Finds Performance Feedback at Clinics Increases Flu Vaccination Rates

News Release, August 12, 2021

Experts continue to recommend annual flu vaccination as the best line of defense, but despite these recommendations, flu vaccination rates haven’t broken 50% in more than a decade. New research in the INFORMS journal Management Science seeks to overcome this. The study finds that performance feedback at healthcare clinics can significantly increase vaccination rates.
