Research shows that patients often don’t know the recommended schedule for vaccinations, and doctors often overlook immunizations if they don't have access to the complete record. CT WiZ helps correct that as below:
- Immunization Information Systems, like CT WiZ, help prevent and control disease. CT WiZ helps make sure you get shots needed to protect you against vaccine preventable diseases.
- It helps ensure patients and providers have complete, consolidated records, which is especially helpful when patients see more than one healthcare provider over their lifespan and when they were vaccinated across state lines.
- It shows which vaccines patients received, and it helps healthcare providers know which vaccines are needed.
- The public can securely access their official immunization records through the CT WiZ Public Portal they may need for childcare, school, camp, work, travel, or if they move out of Connecticut.
