VIS 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. 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.
