More Information

In 2001 and 2002, four meetings were convened, consisting of regional workshops in Illinois,Texas, and California, and a national workshop in Washington, DC, to enhance awareness of the results of the study of the IOM Committee on Immunization Finance, Calling the Shots: Immunization Finance Policies and Practice.

The meetings addressed the following goals:

Foster awareness of the conclusions and recommendations of the IOM report Calling the Shots;

Strengthen interactions among public and private health sector officials to build consensus about immunization infrastructure initiatives, measurement approaches, and financing plans;

Identify unresolved public health and health finance issues and concerns at the regional/state/local levels that require further attention from public and private policymakers.

Support for the workshops has been provided by the National Immunization Program of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
