Evaluating adverse events after vaccination in the Medicare population

Post‐licensure observational studies using large linked databases can provide important data about whether adverse events are associated with vaccines, but databases that have been used may not have sufficient statistical power to examine rare events, and may underrepresent the elderly. We assessed the utility of Medicare data for evaluating adverse events after influenza and pneumococcal vaccines, by using an example involving selected clinical conditions, and evaluating aspects of data quality relevant to vaccine safety analyses.
