COVID-19 EUA Recipient/Caregiver VIS Code Set update June 25, 2021

The CDC VIS Code Set incorporates codes for COVID-19 vaccine Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) Recipient/Caregiver Fact Sheets.

 
CDC Authored VIS documents will not be available for COVID-19 vaccines while under Emergency Use Authorization. Under EUA, the FDA requires a vaccine-specific Fact Sheet for Recipients and Caregivers (EUA Recipient/Caregiver Fact Sheet) be provided to vaccine recipients or their caregivers (similar to Vaccine Information Statements for licensed vaccines). Each EUA Recipient/Caregiver Fact Sheet is developed by the manufacturer and authorized by the FDA. The COVID-19 vaccine related codes in this code set release are provided in anticipation of potential vaccine availability under Emergency Use Authorization. If the vaccines are not authorized, these codes will be retired.
 
Release Notes: This document provides a summary of the Vaccine Information Statement (VIS) code updates and maps as of 06/25/2021. 

 

The following COVID-19 Vaccine EUA Recipient/Caregiver Fact sheet has been updated by the FDA. 

  • Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine – New Edition Date for the current EUA Recipient/Caregiver Fact Sheet dated 06/25/2021

The Edition Date has been changed to 06/25/2021
The Last Updated date has been changed to 06/25/2021
The Barcode string has not been changed
The URL has not changed


The above updates impact the following two VIS code files and tables:

  • CVX Mapped to VIS
  • VIS Barcode Lookup Table

Information regarding this vaccine as well as both the EUA Provider Fact Sheet and the EUA Recipient and Caregiver Fact Sheets is now available on the following FDA web site link:

Important Considerations: 
The CDC is working to facilitate documentation of having provided an EUA Fact Sheet for Recipients and Caregivers (EUA Recipient/Caregiver Fact Sheet) in electronic medical records/immunization information systems. As such, the VIS code set is being used to provide the EUA Recipient/Caregiver Fact Sheet codes for EHRs/EMRs for use in a manner analogous to the electronic system and workflow documentation of VIS. As with VIS documents, the COVID-19 Vaccine Recipient/Caregiver Fact Sheets may incorporate the CDC’s scannable 2D barcode in the Fact Sheet document. The numeric string for a CDC 2D barcode is included for each EUA Fact Sheet record in the data code set for this release.
