这项最终规则的规定将消除与要求医生在Medicare和Medicaid参与医院、长期护理机构和家庭保健机构订购流感和肺炎球菌免疫接种有关的联邦障碍。这一最终规则将影响疫苗可预防的疾病，并将有助于提高成人疫苗接种覆盖率。这将有助于及时提供适当的疫苗接种，提高疫苗接种覆盖率，降低流感和肺炎球菌疾病的发病率和死亡率。
The provisions of this final rule will remove the Federal barrier related to the requirement for a physician to order influenza and pneumococcal immunizations in Medicare and Medicaid participating hospitals, long-term care facilities, and home health agencies. This final rule will affect vaccine-preventable diseases and will help improve adult vaccination coverage rates. It will facilitate the delivery of appropriate vaccinations in a timely manner, increase the levels of vaccination coverage, and decrease the morbidity and mortality rate of influenza and pneumococcal diseases.
