TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The reminder is due for all patients.  
any entries made for Sept to resolve the reminder (entries made for
immunizations for just the month and year are recorded as MO/00/YR). The
reminder is resolved by the reminder term for flu vaccine or by the 
reminder term for contraindications.
The reminder term for flu vaccination will need to be updated yearly to
reset the start date of the flu vaccine so that it is due each fall for
patients in the cohort no matter when they received their last
immunization.
A few weeks prior to beginning flu vaccinations each fall, change the 
start date for each finding in the vaccination term to a recent date.  For
example, if flu vaccines in the community are to begin around September
20, then change the start date to August 31 in order to be sure to allow
