Influenza and Pneumococcal Immunizations
There is a need for greater emphasis on adult immunizations across all health care settings. The opportunity to increasingly link measurement across health care settings will form the foundation for a systems-based perspective on immunization and the reduction or elimination of preventable illnesses such as influenza and pneumonia.FMQAI in collaboration with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is committed to working with healthcare professionals to increase influenza and pneumococcal immunization awareness and screening rates for Medicare beneficiaries. FMQAI will assist healthcare professionals to use their electronic health record system to utilize reminders, report data, and analyze results to improve influenza and pneumococcal screening rates.
