PH Immunization
Contents
Overview
Immunization is an important component of preventive health care. Immunization information may be found on many different health information systems. Successful interoperable communication between these systems is required to optimize timely and appropriate immunization. HL7 has developed a number of artifacts which support this interoperability.
The Immunization DAM provides an overview of the domain (add link here).
HL7 v2 Immunization Implementation Guide Release 2.0
Description
The most recent Meaningful Use/MACRA and EHR certification regulations reference Release 1.5 of the CDC/AIRA implementation guide. The Office of the National Coordinator (ONC) has expressed a strong preference to reference SDO balloted documents in regulation. The PHER work group has expressed a strong interest in balloting existing specifications referenced in regulations that are currently not HL7 balloted. This project will transfer the content of the existing non-HL7 balloted document to a new HL7-balloted document to meet these purposes.
Previously released versions of the implementation guide are available from the CDC.

Other Information
The immunization community is busy implementing Release 1.5 of the CDC published IG. It is Release 1.5 that is expected to be the gold standard in immunization interoperability for the foreseeable future.
The American Immunization Registry Association (AIRA) also maintains a number of interoperability technical documents in their Repository.
