Reminder! Never Record a Vaccine Before Administration
To ensure Florida SHOTS continues to maintain its accuracy, it’s vital that accurate data is added by its users. It’s imperative that vaccines are not recorded in Florida SHOTS or Electronic Health Record (EHR) software until it has been administered to the patient. This prevents the vaccines being incorrectly added to the patient’s Florida SHOTS record if they end up refusing the vaccine during the visit. Take advantage of our Data Quality Webinar to ensure that your data is accurately uploading. The live webinar provides step-by-step instruction in how to run customized reports in Florida SHOTS to assess data, discuss common data errors and avoid outdated shot codes.
