Introduction.
The goals of Healthy People US 2020 have called for increased screening and vaccination of high-risk groups for Hepatitis B (HBV).
Methods.
We performed a survey of 400 randomly chosen primary care practitioners (PCPs) in Wisconsin to assess their knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding screening and vaccination for HBV.
Results.
Screening rates of patients at risk of sexual transmission were low, with 61% of respondents stating that they screen patients who had more than 1 sex partner in 6 months and 86% screening patients with a history of sex with prostitutes.
Screening rate for persons with a history of intravenous drug use was 94%.
Children of immigrants were screened by 65%, persons on hemodialysis by 73%, and prison inmates by 69%.
Screening increased with provider experience with HBV.
Deficiencies in vaccination rates mirrored screening practices.
Major barriers to screening were cost, someone else’s responsibility, time constraints, or lack of knowledge.
Conclusions.
Without improved education and practices of PCPs about HBV screening and vaccination, the goals of healthy people 2020 regarding HBV will not be met.
Barriers to screening and vaccination need to be addressed.
Cost-effectiveness of alternative strategies such as universal vaccination under the age of 50 should be explored.
