AOA's Call to Action on Pneumococcal Disease

Organization:
American Osteopathic Association

The overall aim of this initiative of the American Osteopathic Association (AOA) would be to increase the percentage of adults vaccinated against pneumococcal disease in the practices of osteopathic physicians, also known as DOs. To reach that aim, the AOA's call to action would be designed to (a) increase the number of outpatient DO practices that use standing order programs (SOPs) for adult pneumococcal disease immunization (APDI) and (b) increase the frequency in which existing SOPs for APDI are used in outpatient DO practices that have already adopted them.
