Manage Priority Group |
Purpose |
Manage Priority Groups lists the active and inactive priority groups used to collect Public Health data during a pandemic response event or preparedness exercise (such as the response event to a Pandemic Influenza outbreak.) If your organization is selected for an event, and the event is ongoing, then the CRA Event Information Section will be displayed on the Edit/Enter New Patient screen and the Record Immunizations screen for you to select the appropriate priority group category for a patient obtained through candidate screening.
