The Vermont Immunization Registry (IMR) is a secure health information system that contains immunization records for persons living in Vermont. Medical providers use the IMR to find patient histories for new patients, and print IMR reports for parents who need these records for school and child care entry. School nurses use the IMR to help find immunization records for immunization coverage reporting.
Because the IMR contains records for all persons born in (or seeking medical care in) Vermont, medical providers are able to use it to explore immunization coverage in their own practice, and identify persons who are not up to date for immunizations. It is a valuable tool for assessing, for instance, pockets of need in the case of a disease outbreak, and it is a valuable public health tool for improving vaccination rates and reducing vaccine-preventable disease.

Individual information in the Registry is confidential, but we do publish summary data including county level vaccine coverage rates. Health care providers may request information about their own medical practice.
The IMR team publishes regular reports including state and county level information on a variety of topics. These are developed in concert with the Immunization Program and community partners in an effort to provide Vermonters with current, useful information about immunization in our state.
