A4: Immunization Registries as Tools for Vaccination Coverage Assessment | |||
This session will describe how Registries have been used to estimate vaccination coverage. It will look at an example of creating a secondary “data mart” for the storage of data. A second example discusses a method for identifying pockets of need. Another example explains a method for tracking the population of children who are not “up-to-date” on their immunizations. | |||
Learning Objectives: Identify methods for using immunization registries as a means of assessing vaccination coverage levels for various populations.
