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, IMRHEPBY5 reports the year when the person received his or her fifth Hepatitis B vaccine.

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