At-cost doses
A catch-up schedule generated by the NICC can include at-cost vaccines (accompanied by a ‘$’ symbol). ‘$' indicates a dose might not be funded under the National Immunisation Program schedule. However, depending on the person's circumstances, some at-cost doses might be funded under state and territory schedules.
If the person needing catch-up has been vaccinated overseas, they may have received different and/or additional doses to those recommended and funded by the National Immunisation Program.
If unsure about the funding status, please contact the local public health unit.
Data storage
The NICC does not store any data on a server or locally on the user's device. The NICC only holds the session data in memory to allow users to navigate back and forth within the application. Once users exit the NICC, all session data is wiped.
To help troubleshoot issues reported by users, the user agent of the user's device (in this case the application, operating system, vendor, and/or version of the requesting internet browser) is captured in the generated PDF. No personal information is captured, in keeping with the privacy policy. The person’s user agent is not and will not be stored on the server.
