Scenario: A patient’s previously administered immunization are documented in another practice. However, the enterprise does not share immunizations records across practices. Therefore, the immunizations do not display on the Chart window.

    The No Known Immunization History check box displays on the Chart tab toolbar.
  2. To document the patient’s immunizations, select one of the following options on the Chart tab toolbar:
    • Historical: Add or Update Historical Immunizations.
    • Exclusions: Document an Immunization Series as Complete.
  3. After you complete the patient’s vaccine series or update the immunizations history, select Save.
    The system no longer displays the No Immunization History check box on the Chart tab toolbar.
  4. Continue with the immunization administration process, if necessary.
