Updates

AIR notifications issue update

Te Whatu Ora has provided an update on the Aotearoa Immunisation Register (AIR) which is on an improvement pathway, and advises the issue where some practices were not receiving notification of vaccines delivered elsewhere for their enrolled patients has been resolved. You will start receiving these notifications on Wednesday 24 April.  You may receive a higher volume of notifications on weekdays between 24 April and 7 May, except for ANZAC Day on 25 April. Notifications will be sent in batches until the process is completed.

Birth coding and the AIR

With the introduction of the Aotearoa Immunisation Register (AIR) as a replacement for the National Immunisation Register (NIR) some changes have been made to the way newborn enrolment operates. The AIR team has noticed that some children are not accurately appearing in AIR reports due to not having a birth enrolment code recorded. 

What can you do to help?

For a child to appear in the AIR they must have a birth code recorded in a practice PMS when completing enrolment. By ensuring a child is birth coded (B-Coded) in PMS’ practices can ensure that children appear in the AIR and associated reports and that they receive funding for enrolling that child.

Any questions please contact air.engagement@tewhatuora.govt.nz.

Immsnet report update (Waikato)

There will be no Immsnet Report from Aotearoa Immunisation Register (AIR) for February 2024. The current reporting process is under development and practices will be updated in due course.
