The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services has a duty to ensure immunization providers have the tools needed to provide the best patient care possible. To that end, we work to maintain an immunization information system that is user-friendly and modern. Since implementing NCIR, we have strived to continuously improve the experience for our providers and partners. The upcoming new version of NCIR modernizes the technology healthcare partners rely on to share data, track vaccines, and make sound decisions.
The anticipated launch date for the new NCIR is summer of 2025. Immunization providers can expect updates beginning this summer as information becomes available. Specific stakeholder groups will receive separate communications, as appropriate for that group. As we get closer to launch, you will receive information on training opportunities and other educational resources.
7/29/2024: We are currently in the planning phase of the IIS replacement project. This means we are meeting with the vendor and making sure all our needs are documented and understood. We are also planning how the project will progress and how our teams will work together to ensure success from the very start!
Since many of you have asked, we are excited to share that a Patient Portal is part of the planned functionality for the new IIS. The access will be secure with usernames and passwords specific to the patient. Authorized caregiver access is also a planned feature.
While we have put a lot of effort into making sure that none of the existing NCIR functionality is lost and that we've incorporated as many improvements as we can, it's not too late to give us your ideas! Share your ideas or find out what functionality is planned by emailing NCIRquestions@dhhs.nc.gov.
Any updates will be shared here and by email. Please ensure your contact information in NCIR is up to date.
Please email NCIRquestions@dhhs.nc.gov.
