Vaccine Information Statements (VIS)

We are an EPIC hospital system. Currently, we (pharmacy) have been sending VIS with vaccine or, in certain case (eg, Flu vaccine) stocking them with drug on the unit. We are concerned that staff maybe storing the VIS in some other location or making their own copies. (Therefore, providing outdated material) We'd like to know how your pharmacy provides VIS sheets. If anyone has found a way to provide digital/electronic copy, any information would be greatly appreciated.
