Provider Alerts

The Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) strongly recommends that all Managed Care Plan (MCP) network providers report immunization information within 14 days of administering an immunization.
The following requirements apply to both pharmacists and physicians:

• Timely provision of immunizations in accordance with the most recent schedule and
  recommendations published by ACIP—regardless of a member’s age, sex, or medical
  condition, including pregnancy
  • Please note the ACIP Vaccine Recommendations and Guidelines were updated in
    January 2018. To view the latest guidelines, please visit the CDC web site:
    https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/acip-recs/index.html.
• Documentation of each patient’s need for ACIP-recommended immunizations as part of
  all regular health visits
• Report the administration of any vaccine within 14 days to the appropriate
  immunization registry. The local immunization registry for San Joaquin and Stanislaus
  Counties is Regional Immunization Data Exchange (RIDE). For more information, please
