Tools for Provider Education

•     Maximizing Office Based Immunization (MOBI)

• MOBI is a free one hour in-office CE quality improvement program provided by trained vaccine experts.
• MOBI trains practices in techniques to improve immunization rates in their practice and save costs.
• MOBI aims to raise immunization rates among Ohio's children by teaching physicians and their entire staff evidence-based strategies to overcome barriers to immunization.

•     Assessment, Feedback, Incentives, eXchange (AFIX)

• AFIX is free cooperative, confidential chart-review process which assesses immunization rates for a practice.
• AFIX is offered in addition to MOBI to maximize immunization and minimize roadblocks.
• AFIX can give providers a snapshot of their practice, and provides valuable information for focusing resources to improve rates and save costs.
