When a COVID19 Vaccine has been given and added using the HTML Immunization form, and the VFC Funding source was entered, this data is recorded to the database and also pushed later by HL7 to the state registry.
This VFC funding source data was confirmed by examining the return string from the IMMUN_GETLIST() return data string and does show the VFC funding source VXC50 entry toward the end of the return string.
My Issue is how to use the IMMUN_ADD() function to also include the VFC funding source in a custom VFC form.
It seems as though AthenaHealth will need to update the IMMUN_ADD() function to include a VFC funding source after the AllergyGroupID. This is not present in CPS 12.3.3.
Has it been included in V19 or V20?
Is there any workaround to record the VFC funding source data when using a custom immunization form?
Appreciate any thoughts

According to the athenaPractice help file in version 20, there is a funding source parameter for IMMUN_ADD
These are the 4 parameters listed after AllergyGroupID:
| Amount Waste | Optional. Amount of Vaccine wasted. |
| VIS Given | Optional. Indicates whether VIS was given to the patient. Supporting values are either Y or N. |
| VIS Given Date | Optional. Indicates the VIS Given Date. |
| Funding Source | Optional. Funding source for the Vaccine. |

Thank you David, That is just what I thought, Glad the function is updated in V20
I do not as of yet have the V20 AthenaPractice help files as I am waiting for the practice IT folks to install V20 on a test server.
