In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Opt-In (Call-Back), Opt-in (In-Bound), and 5 other interventions for Covid19. Completed, enrolled 19,554 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This project aims to evaluate different approaches to increase COVID-19 vaccine uptake among at-risk patients at Penn Medicine in an equitable and systematic manner through a centralized outreach program. The investigators will evaluate different text-based scheduling and messaging approaches informed by behavioral science to increase uptake among eligible patients, including the use of clinician endorsement, opt-out framing, and scarcity.
