“…For example, providers are not reimbursed for vaccine counseling services in many Medicaid programs. 18 A survey of Medicaid directors found only 22 of 51 Medicaid programs cover all 13 ACIP-recommended vaccines. For covered vaccines, provider reimbursement often does not fully account for costs.…”

“…At least eight state programs do not provide separate reimbursement for vaccine administration, and no state provides separate reimbursement for vaccine counseling if a patient refuses vaccination. 26 , 27 Moreover, Medicaid reimbursement payments for adult vaccine administration have been found to be substantially lower than payments from Medicare and private payers. 28 HCP concerns over reimbursement may therefore be a significant barrier to the vaccination of low-income individuals.…”

This study aimed to evaluate the attitudes and practices of US healthcare professionals (HCPs) regarding the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) vaccination recommendations on HepA and HepB for adult patients at risk of contracting these infections or experiencing complications of hepatitis disease. This cross-sectional, web-based survey of 400 US HCPs, which included nurse practitioners and family medicine, internal medicine, infectious disease, emergency department, and gastroenterology physicians, assessed HCPs’ attitudes and practices regarding the ACIP recommendations for adult patients at risk for hepatitis disease. HCP participants were identified via a survey research panel. A recruitment quota of 400 HCPs was set, including 50 NPs, 100 FMs, 100 IMs, 50 GIs, 50 EDs, and 50 IDs. The most frequently reported reasons for not recommending either HepA or HepB vaccines were “I think the risk of HepA infection is low in this patient population” and “I am uncertain about what the guidelines say about vaccinating this population.” The most reported factors considered when determining eligibility for either vaccine were medical history and the patient’s willingness/motivation to be vaccinated. Most reported it was extremely or moderately important to prevent hepatitis disease by vaccinating adult patients at risk, and most also reported recommending a HepA vaccine or HepB vaccine to patients at risk. Although most HCPs reported recommending HepA and HepB vaccines to patients at risk, these findings contrast with the low reported vaccination rates among these populations, and improved awareness of the ACIP recommendations among HCPs is needed.
