We systematically analyzed the focus group data using the rigorous and accelerated data reduction (RADaR) technique to identify key themes. Identified barriers included: lack of awareness, vaccine hesitancy, and perceived unaffordability (cited in 14 groups); lack of healthcare provider communication and insufficient time (13 groups); fear of moral judgment (12 groups); lack of motivation and information needs (10 groups); and lack of reliable transportation and foregone care during the COVID-19 pandemic (3 groups). Proposed facilitators included: tailored HPV vaccine information for mid-adults, cost mitigation, and improved vaccine accessibility (12 groups); healthcare provider-initiated conversations (6 groups); and vaccine reminders (4 groups).
