IT'S BETTER THAN EVER: ADULT IMMUNIZATION RECORD CARD NOW INCLUDES SPACE TO
RECORD MENINGOCOCCAL, Tdap, ZOSTER, AND HPV VACCINES
If you're looking for an easy, economical way to encourage your adult
patients to keep track of their vaccination status, you should use IAC's
popular Adult Immunization Record Card. Since introducing it in May 2002,
IAC has filled orders for more than 4.0 million cards. Healthcare providers
across the nation are ordering and using it.
IAC recently updated the card with space for health professionals to record
these four vaccines:
-
Meningococcal
-
Tdap (tetanus-diphtheria-acellular pertussis)
-
Zoster (herpes zoster [shingles])
-
HPV (human papillomavirus)
EASY
Succinct and focused, the record card now lists ten vaccines that all adults
or certain adults should receive. Printed on rip-proof, smudge-proof,
waterproof paper, the card is virtually indestructible. Plus, it's sized to
fit in a wallet, where it's unlikely to be misplaced. And its bright yellow
color makes it hard to miss. Once you give one to a patient, chances are
good the patient will retain it and refer to it.

ECONOMICAL
The cost for one 250-count box is $35; two boxes (500 cards), $65; three
boxes (750 cards), $90; four boxes (1,000 cards), $110. That is a remarkable
price for a tool that can educate and motivate an adult patient to engage in
a lifesaving preventive act over the course of a lifetime.
Additional pricing for larger quantities can be found on the online order
form (see link below). NOTE: THE FIRST ORDER OF A 250-CARD BOX COMES WITH A
30-DAY MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE.

LAMINATED U.S. CHILDHOOD AND ADULT IMMUNIZATION SCHEDULES ARE A MUST FOR
EVERY EXAM ROOM
A set of laminated immunization schedules will be a useful and welcome
addition to every exam room at your practice site. IAC adapted the
schedules from the ones posted on NIP's website. Each is coated in durable
plastic for heavy-duty use, complete with essential footnotes, and printed
in color for easy comprehension. Following is information on the
schedules, including their prices and ordering options.
Childhood schedule. Based on the ACIP/AAP/AAFP-approved Recommended
Childhood and Adolescent Immunization Schedule, 2006, this 2-sided, 8.5" x
11" schedule is printed back-to-back. To view it, go to:
http://www.immunize.org/immschedules/immschedule_child.pdf
Note: The laminated childhood schedule does not include information about
administering the newly licensed rotavirus vaccine because rotavirus
vaccine is not on the official 2006 childhood schedule on which the
laminated schedule is based.
Prices for the childhood schedule are $4 each for 1–4 copies and $3 each
for 5–19 copies. Discount pricing is available for larger quantities.
Adult schedule. Based on the ACIP/AAFP/ACOG-approved Recommended Adult
Immunization Schedule, Oct. 2005–Sept. 2006, this 4-sided, 11" x 17"
schedule is printed back-to-back and folded to 8.5" x 11". To view it, go
to:
http://www.immunize.org/immschedules/immschedule_adult.pdf
Prices for the adult schedule are $5 each for 1–4 copies and $4 each for
5–19 copies. Discount pricing is available for larger quantities.
Ordering options. Order online with a credit card, or order by mail or
fax, using a credit card, check, or purchase order. Shipping is free
within the United States.
