YOUR PATIENTS ARE COUNTING ON YOU TO START THE CONVERSATION

Incorporate a meningitis B (MenB) conversation into your protocol to help ensure you vaccinate all appropriate patients. In the shared clinical decision-making conversation, your vaccination recommendation is the most important factor in your patients’ decision to get vaccinated.1

Follow a simple, 3-step plan of action to prioritize shared clinical decision-making and vaccinate all appropriate patients:

  1. EDUCATE patients about meningococcal disease, the 5 vaccine-preventable serogroups, and how BEXSERO can help protect against MenB2-4
  2. START the BEXSERO 2-dose vaccination series for your appropriate patients4
  3. SCHEDULE the second dose; send follow-up reminders to help patients complete the series

Prioritize shared clinical decision-making

Doctor Discussion

CDC recommends a MenB vaccination series for adolescents not at increased risk, aged 16-23 years (preferred age 16-18 years), based on shared clinical decision-making.5-7

Do your part—initiate the MenB conversation with all appropriate patients and their parents/guardians.

Successfully complete every patient’s MenB series

  • Follow the latest CDC MenB vaccination recommendation5-7
  • Monitor immunization rates in your practice using EHR reports
  • Create EHR reminder alerts to follow up with patients who are due for vaccination or series completion
