A great option for school districts to reduce the time spent with immunization records is to join the San Diego Regional Immunization Registry (SDIR). By having access to SDIR, school personnel can look up a student’s immunization record, print out an official California yellow card and create a blue CSIR card. This reduces time spent in trying to retrieve a lost card, decipher illegible shot information, call physician’s offices, and manually record the information on the CSIR card.
The registry is a confidential web based data base of over one million immunization records in San Diego County. Who puts in these records into the Registry? Community health clinics, private physicians, foster care, and community agencies (WIC and CalWorks) and all public health centers. The San Diego Regional Immunization Registry complies with HIPAA and FERPA laws for confidentiality of healthcare records. It is a free service and only requires a school administrator to sign a Memorandum of Agreement. Once this agreement is signed, a Registry Provider Liaison schedules school personnel for training on how to view immunization records and print both the official California yellow card and blue CSIR card. At that time they also receive a User ID and password to access the website.
