Immunization registries provide more complete vaccination coverage data than clinic records. This finding supports the reliability of immunization information systems for improving vaccination rates and provider confidence.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Informatics
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Immunization information systems (IIS) aim to improve vaccination coverage.
  • Provider concerns about data incompleteness hinder IIS adoption.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the completeness of immunization registry data.
  • To compare registry data accuracy against clinic records.

Main Methods:

  • Compared San Antonio Immunization Registry System (SAIRS) data with clinic records.
  • Analyzed data from Vaccines for Children (VFC) program clinics over three years (1998-2000).

Main Results:

  • Registry data showed higher immunization coverage (64.1%) than clinic data (39.8%) for the 4:3:1 series.

  • Registry coverage levels were consistently equal to or greater than clinic record levels.

    • Conclusions:

    • San Antonio's registry data are more complete than traditional clinic records.
    • These findings can help improve provider trust in immunization information systems.
