         Use this interaction to search for a patient's vaccination records using
-        their NHS number and DiseaseType. You can request the patient's
-        vaccination history for one or more specified 'disease types'. You may
-        limit the vaccination records by specifying date criteria, for example
+        their NHS number and either vaccination type (-immunization.target) or
+        target disease (target-disease). You can request the patient's vaccination
+        history for one or more disease types, or by SNOMED target disease code(s).
+        You may limit the vaccination records by specifying date criteria, for example
         if you only need to know about vaccinations administered in the last 12
         months.
