The ICE service has an option for displaying vaccines that are included in a request but not supported by the default ICE Immunization Schedule in an “Other” vaccine group. This feature may be enabled by modifying a configuration file and restarting the ICE service.
Description
For any administered shot with a vaccine included in a request to ICE that: (1) is not supported by the configured immunization schedule; and (2) has a concept specified for it in ICE’s OpenCDS concepts configuration (cdm.xml) file, ICE will:
Evaluate the shot as NOT_EVALUATED with the reason code of VACCINE_NOT_SUPPPORTED. In the XML response, the shot is specified to be in the Other Vaccine Group as specified through the ObservationFocus element of its encompassing SubstanceAdministrationEvent element.
Output a SubstanceAdministrationProposal for the Other Vaccine Group with a recommendation code of NOT_AVAILABLE and reason code of NOT_SUPPORTED.
If the shots administered meet the above conditions, the Other Vaccine Group is not included in the output.

Below is a snippet of the XML for the evaluated yellow fever shot for this example:
And the corresponding SubstanceAdministrationProposal:
