摘要

Immunization information systems (IISs) are confidential, population-based systems that contain immunization data for children, and, in some cases, adults, within a geographic area. There are generally two models for participation in an IIS, termed voluntary exclusion or "opt-out" and voluntary inclusion or "opt-in." Using the Texas opt-in consent system and statewide IIS (ImmTrac), we describe the costs associated with obtaining opt-in consent in hospitals as part of the birth registration process and in provider offices for children without prior consent. We also estimate the costs associated with a hypothetical opt-out system. Between October 2006 and August 2007, project staff conducted on-site time studies for patients in 8 birthing hospitals (n = 281), 16 provider offices (n = 131), and ImmTrac state offices in Austin, Texas (n = 100). Total costs per child and costs per year were estimated using a time-and-motion study in which the time associated with discussing ImmTrac and obtaining ImmTrac consent was measured. The annual costs associated with obtaining consent for Texas' opt-in IIS are estimated at Dollars 1 389 804.61. The average per child cost associated with ImmTrac consent completed at birth is Dollars 2.00, whereas the per child cost for consent completed in provider offices is Dollars 2.64. The annual costs of operating an alternative, opt-out system are estimated at Dollars 110 714.03, or Dollars 0.29 per child. This cost analysis demonstrated that the proposed opt-out costs were substantially less than the actual opt-in model currently utilized. Changing to an opt-out system could redirect limited healthcare funding to more critical areas such as vaccine purchasing and administration.
