Immunization information system progress--United States- 2003.
One
of the national health objectives for 2010 is to increase to at
least 95% the proportion of children aged <6 years who
participate in fully operational- population-based immunization
registries (objective 14-26). Immunization registries are
confidential- computerized information systems that collect and
consolidate vaccination data from multiple health-care providers-
generate reminder and recall notifications- and assess vaccination
coverage. A registry with added capabilities- such as vaccine
management- adverse event reporting- lifespan vaccination
histories- and interoperability with electronic medical records
(EMRs)- is called an immunization information system (IIS). This
report summarizes data from CDC\'s 2003 Immunization Registry Annual
Report (IRAR)- a survey of IIS grantees in 50 states- five cities-
and the District of Columbia (DC) that receive funding under
section 317b of the Public Health Service Act. The findings of the
2003 IRAR indicate that approximately 44% of U.S. children aged
<6 years participated in an IIS. In addition- 76% of public
vaccination provider sites and 36% of private vaccination provider
sites submitted immunization data to an IIS during the last 6
months of 2003. Increasing health-care provider participation by
linking EMRs to IISs is vital to meeting the national health
objective.
