Description

For sample children under 18 years old who have an immunization record and who have at least five Hepatitis B vaccines on their record, IMRHEPBMO5 reports the month when the person received his or her fifth Hepatitis B vaccine.

Users should combine IMRHEPBMO5 with IMRHEPBY5, which reports the year of the person's fifth Hepatitis B vaccine, in order to get the complete month-year when the person received his or her fifth Hepatitis B vaccine.
