Benefits

 

Vaccines protect your/your child’s health against many dangerous, preventable diseases and are required by law for children in attendance at schools, childcare facilities, camps, and universities. But it can be difficult to keep up with your/your child’s shot record, especially if you move or change healthcare providers. In addition to helping you keep track of your/your child’s shot record, CIIS also

 

  • Consolidates all immunization records for any shots that you/your child have received from multiple healthcare providers into ONE shot record
  • Allows your healthcare provider to see what shots are needed to keep you/your child healthy
  • Helps ensure that you/your child do not miss any shots or get unnecessary shots
  • Provides an accurate, official copy of your/your child’s immunization history to healthcare providers, schools and childcare centers participating in CIIS
  • Helps ensure that your/your child’s immunizations are up-to-date
