Overview

Instructions

1. The 005B Covid vaccination recall 2025 AUTUMN searches include a report for Immunosuppressed patients requiring REVIEW prior to invitation. We would advise that this cohort and any similar recommendations in the latest version of the support article for 005B are dealt with before sending out invitations to avoid missing patients or inviting them to the incorrect clinic.  Please see the 005B support article linked above for a step by step guide to this.
   
2. Once these patients have been reviewed use the 005B Covid booster recall 2025 AUTUMN searches to invite all patients who are eligible to your combined covid and flu Clinics, since anyone who is eligible for Covid vaccination is also eligible for flu vaccination.  Make sure to code these invitations with appropriate Covid invitation AND flu invitation codes.

   

   It is essential that this step is undertaken prior to further steps otherwise you will find yourself sending multiple unnecessary invites to your flu cohort

Note that patients who have declined flu already won't get excluded. If you have already recorded some flu declines, you will want to make a new search joining 005B and rejecting SIV-X00

4. You are now left with a cohort that is only eligible for flu and not Covid. In the 016 Seasonal Influenza 2025-26 vaccination folder, under U)Utility Tools, copy SIV-U020) Invitation placeholder
   
1. Paste this into the B) Seasonal Influenza 2025-26 RECALL folder, selecting "Include descendants"
   
   
2. Right click SIV-U020, click properties
   
3. Change Based on from "Currently Registered" to "Results from" (the flu recall search you wish to use). You should see the search jump to be beneath your selected search.
   
4. The search SIV-U021) No flu invitations sent 25/26 flu season should now be patients who are eligible for flu vaccination but not eligible for Covid for your selected cohort. Example:
   
   

Note if doing 2nd or 3rd invitations using SIV-U022/23 you will first need to invite the covid vaccinations cohort using 005B Covid booster recall 2025 AUTUMN, code for both covid and flu and then use SIV-U022) 1 flu invitation sent 25/26 flu season to identify the patients who are only eligible for the flu vaccination. This will avoid accidentally inviting your Covid/Flu cohort non-responders 3 or more times.

Please be aware that all searches will only count 2nd invitations if there is a gap of 7 days or more between the 1st and 2nd vaccination.  This is in line with other business rules and helps to avoid patients dropping off a list because of double coding on the day.
