Requires automatic registration with New Jersey Immunization Information System upon administration of vaccine for certain persons who consent to registration.
This bill requires that when a vaccine is administered in New Jersey, the recipient is automatically enrolled in the state's Immunization Information System (NJIIS) unless they or their parent/guardian (for minors) provide a written opt-out request. It applies to all individuals not already enrolled, including adults and children, with newborns (born on or after January 1, 1998) automatically enrolled at birth under existing rules. The system stores vaccination records to help healthcare providers and schools ensure timely immunizations, improve vaccination rates, and respond to disease outbreaks. Individuals can request to view, correct, or remove their records from the system at any time.
