PATIENT REPORTING INVESTIGATION SURVEILLANCE MANAGER (PRISM)

PRISM is the communicable disease data system for the State of Wyoming, STD/TB/Viral Hepatitis program. This system allows providers and clinical staff to input their disease reports and patient information directly into the state data system, cutting down on paperwork and time, as well as providing a secure and confidential way to report required surveillance data.  The system is a valuable resource for clinics, providing a means for integrated comprehensive and thorough patient and partner care based on prior episodic information.

For Public Health Clinic staff who have taken the PRISM A and B trainings, see below for PRISM user resources, PRISM Confidentiality and Usage Agreement, and Training overview.

Please contact Julie Tarbuck for initial PRISM registration, additional user information, upcoming training information, and technical assistance.
