Ej. Hoekstra et al., Does reminder-recall augment the impact of voucher incentives on immunization rates among inner-city infants enrolled in WIC?, J PEDIAT, 135(2), 1999, pp. 261-263
Inner-city infants (n = 565) enrolled in the WIC program were randomly assi
gned at 6 months of age to either of 2 groups: (1) voucher incentive (frequ
ency of issuance of food vouchers based on immunization status) plus remind
er-recall (calls and/or letters to families of under-vaccinated children) o
r (2) voucher incentive alone. At 12 months, both groups' immunization leve
ls were high and not significantly different: 80% +/- 4% versus 79% +/- 5%
(P = .749).
