Immunization Registry

The California Immunization Information Registry (CAIR) is a collaboration of immunization registries that ensures the secure, electronic exchange of immunization records to support the elimination of vaccine preventable diseases.

The goal of CAIR is to improve immunization rates for all California children through an innovative public-private partnership. CAIR is a collaborative effort involving local health departments, the California Department of Public Health, Immunization Branch, and a spectrum of key stakeholders across the state. CAIR is working to develop an integrated, statewide computerized registry to network each child's full immunization history. This system will ensure that health care providers have rapid access to complete and up-to-date immunization records. A major objective is to eliminate both missed opportunities to immunize and unnecessary duplicate immunizations.
