Cost-effectiveness of Interventions to Increase HPV Vaccine Uptake - American Academy of Pediatrics Cost-effectiveness of Interventions to Increase HPV Vaccine Uptake - American Academy of Pediatrics Posted: 01 Nov 2020 12:00 AM PDT What's Known on This Subject: Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination offers substantial benefits for cancer prevention, yet uptake remains well below national targets. Although interventions to address low HPV vaccination coverage have been tested, the cost-effectiveness of these interventions over the long-term is unexplored. What This Study Adds: We find 3 interventions for increasing HPV vaccination are cost-effective at common thresholds compared with status quo.
