Bert,

Don't be so selfish! :-) Pediatricians are not the only ones struggling with tracking vaccinations, you know!

I was not clear from watching the V.I.P.E.R. video... is this a stand-alone application that accesses the AC database?

If we don't care about reports, but want the quickest possible way to just see for what vaccinations a patient is due, is V.I.P.E.R. still going to be our best bet? True, it is much less of an issue in adult medicine, but AC is still cumbersome. I just want a really quick way to say "yeah, you're due for pneumovax" so I can rapidly send my MA the order. I'd like the fewest possible mouse clicks to have this happen. (As an aside, I have started to count mouse clicks to accomplish a task, and some tasks are getting nuts. To import a lab, and send it with a note to the UpDox patient portal then sign it off took 22 mouse clicks.) What do you suggest?
