You have submitted a Hepatitis B dose #3 in your HepB vaccine series that does not meet the CDC’s minimal dosing scheduling. You have received the dose earlier than 16 weeks from dose #1 and/or earlier than 8 weeks from dose #2. Since the dose does not meet CDC’s minimal dosing guidelines, it is considered an invalid dose which needs to be repeated for you to complete your HepB vaccine series.
Your next action is to receive a NEW HepB dose to complete your HepB vaccine series and submit the record for approval. This will count as your HepB dose #3 in your series. HSIP recommends completing a Heplisav-B vaccine dose since it is known to boost antibody responses well.
Once approved, a post-vaccination Subsequent Hepatitis B Titer tag will be created. You will need to complete a post-vaccination Quantitative HepB Surface Antibody Titer one month from your fully completed HepB vaccine series. Any previously drawn HepB Surface Ab titer cannot be accepted since they were drawn before your completed HepB vaccine series.
