72 percent of participating Medicare professionals who vaccinate reported electronically to an IIS in 2014
Electronic report to Immunization Information Services (IIS) was an optional measure for participants at stage 1 of the Medicare EHR Incentive Program, and a required measure for stage 2. Since 2011, electronic IIS reporting among eligible professionals see Notes participating in the Medicare EHR Incentive Program has risen by almost half. Concurrently, the percentage of professionals whose local jurisdiction cannot receive electronic message dropped by half.
See Quick Stat #49 for 2014 rates split out by stage of meaningful use.
N = Number of Medicare participating professionals who vaccinate. See Notes below for more information.
| Meaningful Use Program Year | Electronic reporting to IIS | Exclusion claimed because local jurisdiction could not receive electronic message |
|---|---|---|
| 2011 (N=43k) | 51% | 20% |
| 2012 (N=125k) | 56% | 16% |
| 2013 (N=157k) | 63% | 12% |
| 2014 (N=142k) | 72% | 10% |
Estimates only include respondents who indicated their reporting location uses an EHR (~90% of the sample each year). Blank and “don’t know” responses (about 11-12% of the sample for recording of SDOH data and about 2-4% of the sample for BDOH data) were treated as “No”.
