Project L.O.V.E. --- Columbus, Ohio

Electronic immunization registries are confidential, computerized information systems that track your child's immunization history. Children are typically registered at birth, often through a linkage with electronic birth records. As your child grows and immunizations are given, the Ohio Statewide Immunization Information System (OSIIS) will track your child's immunizations and be able to provide you with forms needed for your child's proof of immunization for entrance to day care, elementary school and summer camp programs. By using the system, your health care provider will be able to access the database to know if your child's immunizations are necessary or redundant. This saves you time and money by avoiding unneeded doses and trips to the doctor’s office.

The benefits for Parents to place their child's immunization records in an electronic immunization registry:

Electronically maintain your child's immunization record into one accessible location anytime you need it.
No more tracking where you placed that paper immunization record.
Records are available no matter where you live or whether you move to another city or state.
No more worrying about whether or not you remembered to bring the paper immunization record with you to your child’s appointment.
Your doctor will send you reminders when your child's next immunization is due.
Helps comply with day care, school and summer camp immunization requirements.
Instant access for your healthcare provider to print you a form approved for day care, summer camp and the school nurse.
