Description: The purpose of the FOA is to develop, implement, and evaluate an intervention to increase use of standing order programs (SOPs) for vaccination of adults in physician office settings, particularly those serving ethnically diverse persons with lower vaccination rates. The intervention should include use of SOPs for influenza, pneumococcal, and Tdap vaccination. The reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance of the intervention should be evaluated. This program addresses the &#147;Healthy People 2020&#148; focus area(s) of immunization and infectious disease (http://healthypeople.gov).
