Health > Letters > Run Letter > Letter Criteria
This tab allows you to set criteria for printing Health letters for immunizations, referrals, or screenings.
Notes:
■ For Immunization Due letters, if a students is in PK and will still be four years old on September 1 of the next school year, the grade level will not be incremented to KG; therefore, KG rules will not apply to the student (DTP, Polio, MMR, Varicella, and Hep A).
■ Vaccine doses can be administered four or fewer days before the minimum interval or age.
■ Referral letters print for students who failed a screening and have no referral date in their record for the current year.
■ The blank referral date is updated with the current date when you click Update Referrals from the Print Letters tab. An existing referral date is not replaced, because a letter is not generated if the referral date is not blank.
■ Hearing or vision referrals are generated when the Pass/Fail field is set to Fail or Inconclusive.
■ Spinal referrals are generated when the Signs/Symptoms field is set to Kyphosis, Other, or Scoliosis.
■ Acanthosis referrals are generated when the AN Marker field is set to a value other than 0 (negative).
■ Spinal and acanthosis screening letters print for students who do not have a religious exemption.
■ The affidavit date must be prior to the generation date of the screening letters in order for the letters to not print due to the religious exemption.
■ Students must have record status 1, 2, or 3 in order to have a letter generated.
