C19 Healthy Arizona/CVN IIS Task Summary Page

Many investments have been made on the health center/network/PCA side, the EHR side and on the state IIS side during the pandemic as part of the COVID-19 response. NACHC would like your organization to provide an update on your connectivity with state/territory IIS systems. You can answer the questions below for each state individually or summarize on one sheet if it is easier.

1. What state IIS systems do your health centers report to? Are there any that do not automatically report electronically via the EHR? If not via the EHR, how is reporting done?

2. Which IIS systems do your health centers have access to IIS data? Are the queries done one at a time by staff? Can you automate queries for a patient? Can you make a bulk query to the state IIS?

3. Does the IIS system display data in the EHR interface to users? Are there health centers who could access these functions but do not?

4. What are the challenges or impacts of the IIS reporting requirements and interoperability (or lack thereof) for IIS data?
