INTEGRATING THE HEALTHCARE ECOSYSTEM

Please contact PA SIIS to begin the enrollment process.

Managed by the Pennsylvania Department of Health, the Pennsylvania Statewide Immunization Information System (PA-SIIS) is a statewide immunization registry that collects vaccination history information. It was developed to achieve complete and timely immunization for all people, particularly in the age group most at risk: birth through two years of age. The PA-SIIS helps to serve the public health goal of preventing the spread of vaccine-preventable diseases. A major barrier to reaching this goal is the continuing difficulty of keeping immunization records accurate and up to date. The PA-SIIS addresses this problem by capturing immunization information from healthcare providers and storing this information in one central location. If a patient receives immunizations from more than one healthcare provider, the PA-SIIS consolidates the immunization information from all providers to create a complete and current record. This assists healthcare providers to age-appropriately immunize all patients in their care.
