View Patient's Evaluated Immunization History and Forecast

To help you determine when a patient should receive the next immunization, view a patient’s immunization history and forecasted next due immunizations from your practice’s registry on the Registry tab. If a dose is deemed invalid, the system displays this in the Evaluated Immunization History section. For example, a patient was too young to receive a certain immunization. Note: The Evaluated Immunization History section displays the same data as the Reconciliation module. The Chart view tab data, however, may not display the same data that appears on the Registry tab. When you perform the Reconciliation process, the Evaluated Immunization History data matches the data in the Chart view. In the Orders Module, select the Immunizations tab. Select the Registry tab. Select the appropriate registry. To display a patient’s Evaluated Immunization History and Immunization Forecast, select Query. After the query process completes, the system displays the patient’s immunization and forecast data
