Study Summary

This trial is testing two interventions to increase uptake of the COVID-19 vaccine among patients at community health centers in Utah. The first intervention is a text messaging system that automatically identifies patients eligible for the vaccine and helps them connect to a vaccination site. The second intervention is patient navigation, which involves motivating and helping patients with logistics and barriers to getting the vaccine. The trial will use a rapid cycle research approach, implementing the interventions in a small number of clinics and patients, and then adapting or disseminating the results based on the results of the evaluation.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Active Control
Group I: Text-Messaging (TM)Active Control1 Intervention
Population health management intervention that analyzes electronic health record data to automatically identify participants who are eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine and proactively reach those participants for vaccine scheduling. This is a bi-directional text messaging system.
Group II: Text-Messaging plus Patient NavigationActive Control2 Interventions
Population health management intervention that includes the same bi-directional text-messaging system as Arm 1 (the text messaging condition) with the addition of patient navigation. Patient navigation includes real-time assistance from a community health worker to address barriers, provide motivation, and assist with logistics of COIVD vaccination.
