Benefits of CIIS
The Colorado Immunization Information System (CIIS) provides the following benefits to providers:
- Consolidates all immunizations into one easily accessible yet secure record for each individual
- Provides decision support by displaying the vaccines recommended under current guidelines based on the individual’s age and immunizations already received
- Provides an accurate, official copy of a child’s immunization history for personal, school, child care or camp entry requirements
- Enables providers to easily screen for immunizations at each visit
- Enables providers to notify parents if a child has missed an immunization
- Facilitates the introduction of new vaccines or changes in the recommended vaccine schedule
- Identifies an individual’s previously reported contraindications and allergies
- Web-enabled database for data entry and access
- Interoperability with electronic health records and billing software
- Enables providers to generate recall notices for individuals who have missed an immunization
- Allows state and local public health officials to make assessments of populations that are un- or under-immunized in order to implement geographically targeted interventions

CIIS User Testimonials
Check out what are other providers saying about CIIS:
“Our triage nurses feel that the Colorado Immunization Information System has been very beneficial to our practice. When a parent calls to find out if their child is up-to-date on immunizations, it is very easy to access that child’s record to see what immunizations that child may need. In addition, our nurses are able to print out a form for school and send it to the parent offering excellent customer service. We appreciate that CIIS is a centralized system linked to other practices, providing for continuity of care – this is why it would be beneficial for other providers to join.
Our providers utilize print-outs of the immunization records at all visits in order to determine if a child is up-to-date on immunizations. Data entry into CIIS is an easy process for all of the medical assistants to accomplish at the time of the visit. It is very convenient when we have new patients that come into our practice that are already in the registry. Having the data dump once weekly with our EMR is also a time-saving mechanism – we do not have duplicate data entry into each system.
Lately, having the ability to run recall reports off of CIIS has been a plus as well. We are experimenting with that process in order to determine best-case scenarios for getting children who are not up-to-date on immunizations back into the office for appointments.”

“The Colorado Immunization Information System has improved our practice. It has helped to automate reminder recall, and it is also nice to have a centralized place to look for immunization records (and to not have to call all over the state) – this makes our lives easier. CIIS is very user-friendly. It would make life easier for ALL providers if everyone joined CIIS, and we had a centralized database to use. Plus, I think it would improve our abilities to correctly immunize Colorado children, thus improving their health.”
