Australian Immunisation Register (AIR)
Increasing immunisation coverage is a national priority for PHNs. We work closely with primary health care providers to maintain and increase immunisation coverage across our region.
The Australian Immunisation Register (AIR) is a national register that records vaccines given to all people in Australia. The AIR includes vaccines given under the National Immunisation Program, through school programs and privately, such as for influenza or travel.
You can use the AIR to:
- Find out someone’s immunisation status, regardless of who immunised them
- Print an immunisation history statement to prove their immunisation status for child care, school, employment or travel purposes
Recognised vaccination providers can:
- Record patient immunisation information
- Update or correct some data already sent to the AIR
- Request reports to help identify any patients due or overdue for a vaccination
- Report immunisation medical exemptions online— if you’re eligible to do this
- Get information payments for the provision of certain vaccinations—if you’re eligible to do this
Health professionals can access the AIR through HPOS using a PRODA account. Please visit our training and education pages for access to learning resources.
