VIS Document and Code Changes Effective December 17, 2021

Release Notes: This release covers updates for Vaccine Information Statement (VIS) codes and maps only.  A separate set of release notes and files are prepared for other vaccine code updates.

 
VIS codes are created to enable provider systems to implement VIS scanning and to help automate capture of the specific VIS document edition given to the recipient or caregiver.  The VIS codes may be published in advance of the actual VIS document publication, but they are only in effect and useable starting on the edition date of the VIS.  The URLs included in the code set will not point to the new edition until the VIS document edition date.

 
This release includes the following VIS related code updates:

• One new VIS document has been added to the CDC code sets with an effective edition date of 12/17/2021.
• The following three VIS downloadable code set files have been updated on the CDC website effective 12/17/2021:
  • VIS Barcode Lookup Table
  • CVX to VIS
  • VIS URL Table

The new VIS document(s) are shown below for reference (“New VIS Document Type Description”), along with the prior VIS document replaced (“Previous VIS Document Type Description”).  In this release, there is no prior VIS edition for the new Dengue Vaccine VIS as this is the first VIS document edition for a Dengue fever vaccine.

 
In the downloadable files, each new VIS has a new document “VIS Fully-encoded text string,” an “Edition Date” of 12/17/2021, and an “Edition Status” of Current.  Any previous VIS documents will 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 are updated from the prior editions where appropriate to reflect current CVX codes. 

   
The specific codes and URLs can be found in the VIS code set files listed above.

 

New VIS Document Type Description (*)	New Edition Date	VIS GDTI Document Code	Previous VIS Document Type Description	Previous Edition Date
Dengue Vaccine VIS	12/17/2021	0886983000462	Not applicable (NA)	NA

 

(*) Note: VIS Document Type Descriptions in the VIS vaccine code set may not be exactly the same as the final published VIS document title.
