About the Default Immunization Schedule

Although the ICE Web Service and ICE plugin can support multiple immunization schedules, ICE is configured with an initial default schedule that includes all routine immunizations for children, adolescents, and adults. These rules determine how ICE evaluates the validity of a patient's immunization history and determines the recommendations for additional immunizations.

This default immunization schedule, which is based on Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendations and informed by the work of the CDC's CDSi project, is the result of a collaborative effort by immunization and information technology experts from the New York City, Alabama, California, Rhode Island, New Jersey, and HLN Consulting, LLC. This group of subject matter experts has met meets on a regular basis for more than 10 years to document the default immunization schedule rules and create the corresponding test cases.
