USIIS Forecast Known Issues:

  • PCV/PPSV23: For adults 65 years of age or greater who have not received a previous dose of PCV, it is recommended that they receive 1 dose of PCV20 or PCV15 (if PCV15 is used should be followed up by a PPSV23 one year later). Currently, this 65+ dose recommendation is displayed in the PPSV23 series/row /instead of the PCV row with the appropriate age guidelines (07/11/23). 
  • PCV and PPSV23 lines have disappeared from the forecast screen, forecast report, and USIR.
    • We are aware of this issue and a fix is on our next sprint cycle (Update: 11/15/23).
  • For children, if a PCV20 was given it is showing as “inadvertent administration”              (10/18/23).
  • Varicella/MMR: For adults older than 19 year of age who do not have a history of a varicella or MMR vaccination, the forecast will display "N/A" for these vaccinations.  ACIP recommends that adults aged 19-49 years of age receive 2 doses of varicella (if born in 1980 or later) and individuals 19-64 years of age receive 1 or 2 doses of MMR (if born in 1957 or later). This bug has been reported to our forecast vendor for a fix (Update: 07/11/23).
    • STC responded that it wasn’t in the CSDI this way and will work on it                     (10/18/23).
  • Men B: Currently, our forecast is only showing for Men B OMV (Bexsero) regardless if either Men B OMV or Men B Recom (Trumemba) was used. The forecast module will display the correct dates for the next dose for either vaccine. However, if Men B Recom was used, it will not show up correctly on the forecast report (07/11/23).
  • Men B line has disappeared from the forecast screen, forecast report, and USIR
    • Will be solved by combining Men B OMV and Men B Recom into one line                  (Update: 11/15/23).
  • COVID doses: New Novavax not added into the forecast by STC (Update: 11/15/23).
  • Dtap: If 4th dose was given after 4th bday, it’s forecasting the patient needs another dose.
    • Fix deployed in Test (Update: 11/15/2023).
  • Tdap: If a patient is on a catchup 3 dose tdap series, they are showing inadvertent doses.
    • Still exploring the reason (Update: 11/15/23).
  • RSV Abrysvo:
    • For people <60 years old, if they have an RSV given in their record it will cause an error 6 (Update: 11/15/23).
    • For people >60 it is showing current even if they haven’t received a dose (Update 11/15/23).

      Forecast Updates:

  • Varicella Immunity now showing in production.
  • Meningococcal display name was switched to Men ACWY (Update: 07/11/23).
  • The new RSV and COVID vaccines have been added to USIIS' forecast (Update: 10/13/23).
  • Changed CVX code 93 to say RSV-MAb (palivizumab) instead of just RSV-mAB
    • Please use codes 306 and 307 for nirsevimab (Update: 11/15/23).
  • Fixed a bug in USIR for Tdap showing N/A (Update: 11/15/23).
  • Added a fix to allow Rabies vaccines to be given at ACIP recommended interval of 0,3,7,14 days.
    • Previously if they got a vaccine <6 days apart it replaced them (Update: 11/15/23).

Q: I am unable to enter a lot number into USIIS Immunize, how can I save a vaccine?

A: We just upgraded our system and there is a bug when you try to enter the lot manually using the text box instead of the drop down menu. We have let our dev team know about this issue and they are working on solving it. In the meantime, if you enter the lot number using the vaccine inventory module and do the drop down or use the brief entry, it will save the vaccine (Updated 05/10/2023)
