Prometheus Consent Forms Needed for Full NIST Transition

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and

Prometheus Computing, LLC are notifying jurisdictions of an upcoming transition affecting NIST Tooling. NIST's Health IT Program, which built, maintained, and hosted several immunization web application tools and services, is being sunset as part of an internal reorganization.

These tools and services are migrating to Prometheus Computing, hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), and will continue to be supported through AIRA's CDC-funded cooperative agreement, pending notice of award.

Important Action Required

For a select number of tools, including IGAMT-2, TCAMT, and FITS, Prometheus Computing, needs your explicit consent before your user access and/or configuration data can be migrated. If consent isn't received by Friday, July 31, your user access and/or configuration data will not be transferred and will become inaccessible.

Timeline:

June 24–July 31: Consent window open
July 31: Consent deadline
Mid-August: Migration to Prometheus Computing/AWS targeted for completion

Action Requested by NIST and Prometheus Computing:

Review the notice with anyone in your jurisdiction who actively uses IGAMT-2, TCAMT, and/or FITS
Submit consent via the form(s) below before Friday, July 31

Join AIRA for a Discovery Session: Patient Matching – Multiple Organization | A Town Hall

Another Measurement and Improvement (M&I) content area is on the move! Earlier this spring, many of you participated in moving Data at Rest (DAR) toward Validation. This summer, AIRA’s M&I initiative continues that momentum with an opportunity to explore the future of HL7 Patient Matching – Multiple Organization.

Accurate patient matching is essential for maintaining complete, reliable immunization records and supporting interoperability across organizations. During this interactive town hall on Monday, July 27 at 4 p.m. ET, AIRA staff members, Damon Ferlazzo and Eric Larson, will guide the IIS community through the draft Measures and Tests document.

What to Expect:

Overview of M&I and the measurable concept of Patient Matching – Multiple Organization
Findings and lessons learned from IIS participation in M&I Testing and Discovery
Proposed methodology and measures to assess IIS alignment with the relevant functional standards

Once registered, you’ll receive a confirmation email with links to add the event to your calendar.

Participate and Provide Feedback

As part of the town hall discussion, all members of the IIS community are invited to review and comment on the Measures and Tests document. Comments will be accepted through Friday, August 14. We welcome both concerns and areas of agreement, as each provides valuable input to the review process. Please add your feedback directly to the document and send to Damon Ferlazzo at [email protected].

If you are unable to attend the Discovery Session, it will be recorded and made available in the AIRA Repository. We hope you’ll join us on July 27!
