People without a primary care provider (PCP) are less likely to receive an annual flu shot than those with a regular PCP, according to research presented at the ASHP virtual 2021 Midyear Clinical Meeting and Exhibition (eposter 3719).
Although influenza vaccination is relatively low among both groups—44.5% among individuals with a PCP and 20.5% among those without—it is almost twice as low among those without a PCP than those with one.
