This study demonstrated that an asynchronous online module was effective at improving confidence, knowledge, and self-reported behavior of adult primary care providers in recommending HPV immunization. Given the important role that healthcare providers play in vaccine uptake, this study suggests that an online educational intervention can be a powerful tool to encourage increased utilization and delivery of the HPV vaccine. Further efforts are needed to educate internists and providers who take care of the adult population on HPV vaccination.
