Automatically enrolls individuals in the New Jersey Immunization Information System upon vaccine administration unless they opt out.

This bill mandates automatic enrollment in the New Jersey Immunization Information System (NJIIS) for individuals receiving a vaccine, unless they or their guardians opt out in writing. The NJIIS, a statewide database, maintains vaccination records to aid disease prevention and control. Authorized entities, including health care providers and educational institutions, can access the registry to improve patient care and immunization rates. Individuals can review and correct their records. The bill also ensures that health care providers cannot be penalized for reporting to the registry.
