Legislative changes introduced on 1 March 2024 require all vaccination providers to complete the ‘Vaccine type’ field when reporting vaccines administered to the AIR.
There are four options available under the ‘Vaccine type’ field – as follows:
| Vaccine type | Example |
| Antenatal | Vaccine is administered to an individual who is pregnant. This vaccine type should be used for pregnant individuals regardless of National Immunisation Program (NIP) funding |
| National Immunisation Program (NIP)/Commonwealth | Vaccine is funded under the NIP or by the Australian Government – i.e. NIP and COVID-19 vaccines only. |
| Private | Vaccine is purchased privately – i.e. travel and influenza vaccines (that are not funded under the NIP). |
| State Program | Vaccine is funded under a state or territory program. |
The quickest and easiest way to report vaccination information to the AIR is through clinical software or the Health Professional Online Services (HPOS) system on the AIR site.
Ensure the latest software has been updated to support reporting this information – for example:
*Current at June 2024
Contact your software provider for further information and support.
Note that:
More information about editing a vaccination encounter that has already submitted to the AIR is available here.
