Clinician Vaccine Integrated Platform (Pharmacy)

Date: 30 August 2021

Reporting immunisation events to the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR) is a vital part of public health monitoring.

It is mandatory for vaccination providers to report to the AIR all COVID-19, influenza, and NIP vaccines given. Reporting of other vaccines is encouraged but not mandatory.1

To facilitate reporting to the AIR, the Australian Digital Health Agency has developed the Clinician Vaccine Integrated Platform (CVIP). The CVIP makes it easier for vaccination providers who do not have clinical software that reports to the AIR to record vaccination information.2

While providers may be familiar with recording vaccinations using HPOS, CVIP is a more streamlined method that makes uploading information to AIR more efficient.

While it is not a requirement for healthcare professionals to use CVIP, it provides a simpler solution in some instances by integrating vaccination check-in with vaccination recording and reporting in AIR.

Guild Learning and Development is pleased to announce the availability of the Australian Digital Health Agency developed online module titled Clinician Vaccine Integrated Platform (Pharmacy) on GuildEd.

This eLearning program will provide pharmacists with the background knowledge on reporting to the AIR and detailed information on how to use CVIP to undertake this reporting.

To enrol in this course please visit guilded.guild.org.au Please contact Guild Learning and Development on 1800 049 056 or email learninganddevelopment@guild.org.au for more information.


This activity has been accredited for 0.5 hours of Group 1 CPD (or 0.5 CPD credits), suitable for inclusion in an individual pharmacist's CPD plan, which can be converted to 0.5 hours of Group 2 CPD (or 1 CPD credit) upon successful completion of relevant assessment activities.
