What you need to know

​​​​​As a provider you may wonder how NESIIS will work for you.

Have you ever had a system that identifies each patient's needed immunizations using the ACIP immunization schedule?

Have you ever had a system that allows you to track your organizations vaccine inventory and be alerted when inventory is running low or going to expire?

Have you ever had a system that provides you immediate access to a patient's immunization history, whether administered by a public or private provider within the state?

NESIIS can do all of these items and much more. The system includes a solid de-duplication and associated data quality/management tools to combine all available information of a particular individual into a single, accurate record. An interface with the Nebraska vital and death records system keeps NESIIS updated with newborn information.

At no cost, the Nebraska Department of Health of Human Services is offering school medical staff view-only access to the NESIIS in order to view and print the immunization histories of enrolled students within their respective school.​


 

Benefits for Schools

  • Saves parents time going to the doctor's office or clinic to obtain a copy of their children's immunization records because many schools can check immunization records online
  • Provides schools with quick easy access to immunization records, even if the child received vaccines at more than one clinic.
  • Provides a mechanism for tracking list of students needing immunizations.
  • Advises when a student is “complete" for their school required immunizations.​
