2022-23 MnVFC Pediatric Influenza Vaccine Prebook Timeline

MnVFC providers will be able to prebook influenza vaccine for the 2022-23 influenza season starting Jan. 18. Prebook requests are due Feb. 1. Requests submitted after Feb. 1 will be considered late and will be prioritized accordingly.

How to prebook influenza vaccine

MnVFC-enrolled providers will use the Minnesota Immunization Information Connection (MIIC) to prebook. 

  • Login to MIIC between Jan. 18 and Feb. 1.
  • Go to the Vaccine Management header on the left hand side.
  • Select request special event vaccine.
  • From the Event dropdown select 2022-23 MnVFC pediatric influenza vaccine prebook.

Actions your site can take to prepare:

  • Determine who within your organization will prebook influenza vaccine in MIIC.
  • Check with your vaccine ordering staff to see if they have a MIIC user role with ordering privileges. Login to MIIC and view your user role at the top of the home page. If your role ends with the words “with ordering” then you will have access to request influenza vaccine in MIIC.
  • If you do not have a user role with ordering, consult with your MIIC administrator to update your role. Typically, there is a MIIC user at each site who is designated as a MIIC administrator. This person oversees the MIIC accounts for the staff at their site. If you have an administrator role you can create user roles for your staff. Refer to the MIIC Managing Users user guide for more information.
  • If you do not have staff with that role, contact mdhvaccine@state.mn.us for assistance.
