LOINC description : This collection of LOINC codes was developed in support of HL7 Version 2.5.1 Implementation
Guide: Immunization Messaging (Release 1.1) that represents a collaborative effort
of the American Immunization Registry Association (AIRA) and the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) to improve inter-system communication of immunization
records. The Implementation Guide is intended to facilitate: sending and receiving
immunization histories for individuals, sending and receiving demographic information
about the individuals, requesting immunization histories for individuals, responding
to requests for immunization histories by returning immunization, histories, acknowledging
receipt of immunization histories and requests for immunization histories, reporting
errors in the messaging process, and sending observations about an immunization event
(this may include funding, reactions, forecasts and evaluations).;
