This on-demand course provides an in-depth review of HL7 v2.5.1 unsolicited vaccination record update (aka VXU) messages and how they are used to exchange immunization information between immunization information systems (IIS) and other health information systems.

Genomics, and precision health approaches such as big data science and machine learning have emerged as important tools for public health. Those entering the public health and medical workforces must keep pace with these evolving fields to maximize the benefit to public health. Recognizing this need, ORISE is partnering with the Office of Genomics and Precision Public Health at the CDC to offer a two-day enrichment event covering the latest developments in these fields. The course is a series of 15-60 minute lectures, grouped by topic, with learning objectives for each lecture.

A set of interactive gools to conduct self-assessments at a public health agency. Covers both informatics and interoperability.

Surveillance modernization efforts emphasize the potential use of electronic health record (EHR) data to inform public health surveillance and prevention. However, EHR data streams vary widely in their completeness, accuracy, and representativeness. This publication describes a validation process developed by the Multi-State EHR-Based Network for Disease Surveillance (MENDS) pilot project to identify and resolve data quality issues that could affect chronic disease prevalence estimates.

Part of Fundamentals of IIS series along with Interoperability and HL7 Basics. Goes over key concepts related to the characteristics of IIS data quality, how it's measured, examples of issues, and strategies for improvements.

Part of Fundamentals of IIS series along with Data Quality and HL7 Basics. Goes over the concepts of data exchange between IIS and other systems.

Part of Fundamentals of IIS series along with Data Quality and Interoperability. Goes over the HL7 V2 standard, why it's used for immunization messaging, what the impacts are on IIS, and IIS responsibilities related to HL7.
