Four (4) new VIS document editions have been added to the CDC website as of 10/12/2021. The edition status of the associated prior edition for each has been set to “historic.”
The following three VIS downloadable files are included in the VIS code set. Two of these have been updated on the CDC website on 10/12/2021 to reflect the new document editions effective 10/15/2021:
- VIS Barcode Lookup Table
- CVX to VIS
- VIS URL Table – No change, all URLs remain the same
The new VIS documents are shown below for reference (“New VIS Document Type Description”), along with the prior VIS documents they replaced (“Previous VIS Document Type Description”).
In the downloadable files, each new VIS has a new document “VIS Fully-encoded text string,” an “Edition Date” of 10/15/2021, and an “Edition Status” of Current. The previous VIS documents now have the “Edition Status” set to Historic. Current and previous editions retain the same “VIS GDTI Document Code.” The URLs remain the same across editions. CVX codes associated to each new VIS have been updated from the prior edition where appropriate to reflect current CVX codes.
