California to require providers to submit immunization records

California will begin requiring providers who provide immunizations to submit them to a statewide registry. 

Race and ethnicity will also be required for each entry to support health disparities assessment efforts, the California Medical Association said in a Dec. 13 news release. 

Physicians not already enrolled in the registry are urged to sign up with the registry as soon as possible. 

The requirement for providers will begin Jan. 1, 2023.
