General Rules for MMR

General rules are not series-specific; general rules apply to the entire vaccine group.

Proof of Immunity Rules

  • If a patient has immunity (reported as having a positive titer or serology) for all three components (measles, mumps, rubella), vaccine is not recommended. 
  • Any shot administered prior to the date of immunity is evaluated as Valid or Invalid, based on minimum age and minimum interval rules.
  • Any shot administered on or after the date of immunity is evaluated as Accepted with a reason code of PROOF_OF_IMMUNITY; Recommendation is Not Recommended and the reason code is PROOF_OF_IMMUNITY.

Live Vaccine Interval Rule

  • The Live Vaccine Interval rule (also referred to as the Live Virus rule) applies to all MMR vaccines. For rule details, see the Live Vaccine Interval rule on the General ICE Rules page.

Series Completion Special Rule

  • Once a patient completes the MMR series the Recommendation is Not Recommended and the reason code is COMPLETE_HIGH_RISK. (MMR should never have a recommendation of Not Recommended/Complete.)
