Keeping Your Immunizations Registries Up-to-Date

When an Immunizations order is created and saved, the system sends this order information to the patient’s Immunization record in the selected registry. If you update the administered Immunizations order, such as deleting an Immunizations order or adding a new immunization to an order, the system updates these changes in the appropriate registry. This task ensures that your registry stays up-to-date and meets Meaningful Use requirements. The system updates or changes an Immunizations order that has already been sent to the registry when you perform any of the following actions: Add, cancel, or delete an Immunizations order. Add, cancel, or delete a vaccine in an Immunizations order. Update an Immunizations order’s vaccine or clinical information. Mark an Immunizations order as Entered in Error.
