Authors: Blake Weber

Vaccines are arguably one of the greatest breakthroughs in modern medicine by providing protection from disease long before the person is ever exposed. This analysis utilizes Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) information for influenza vaccination for BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee members to identify some vaccination trends. A Hot Spot Analysis was performed to identify areas in the state of high/low compliance for targeted educational and outreach opportunities.
