Pneumonia
and influenza are the fifth
leading causes of death in the United States in adults age
65 and older. Despite
the fact that influenza and pneumococcal
vaccines are
clinically effective, cost-effective, and are covered by Medicare Part
B
benefits, they remain underutilized. Healthy People 2010 target rates
are 90
percent for influenza and penumococcal
vaccination
for adults aged 65 and older. Under the Adult Immunization Project,
North
Dakota Health Care Review, Inc., is committed to providing educational
materials and office tools to increase the administration of influenza
and pneumococcal immunizations for
Medicare beneficiaries. For
