The eXchange component of AFIX can occur in conjunction with
Feedback and Incentives or it can be an ongoing process of
sharing, which shares information among providers. Once providers begin using strategies of assessment and
feedback and are motivated to change behaviors and practices, they become more interested in learning more about the best ways
to improve coverage. Information exchange allows providers and
their staff to educate their peers on what barriers they faced in
implementing specific interventions and how they overcome those
barriers to achieve success.
Exchange of
information can:
- Inform providers
about appropriate immunization practices
and dispel any myths that may exist
- Promote
the value of assessment as a diagnostic tool
- Share ideas
about what works and what doesn't work
- Create a
sense of mutual support among providers
- Create a
common mission among providers and public
health
