We’re Transitioning to a NEW IIS – Help Us Name It!

We’re excited to announce that the Maine Immunization Program (MIP) will be transitioning to a new Immunization Information System (IIS) to replace ImmPact in the coming year.  

We’re inviting you to help us choose a name for the new system by submitting your ideas through this quick survey: Name the New Maine IIS Survey.

The name should be:

  • Easy to say and remember
  • Professional
  • Either an acronym or a short, memorable title

Note: The new system cannot be called “MEIIS”                                                                              

Examples of State IIS Names:

  • California – California Immunization Registry (CAIR)
  • Texas – ImmTrac2
  • New York – New York State Immunization Information System (NYSIIS)
  • Florida – Florida SHOTS (State Health Online Tracking System)
  • Illinois – I-CARE (Illinois Comprehensive Automated Immunization Registry Exchange)
  • Washington – WA IIS (Washington Immunization Information System)
  • Colorado – CIIS (Colorado Immunization Information System)
  • Virginia – VIIS (Virginia Immunization Information System)
  • Michigan – MCIR (Michigan Care Improvement Registry)
  • Ohio – OHIIS (Ohio Health Immunization Information System)

Thank you for taking the time to share your ideas. We look forward to reviewing your creative suggestions!
