AVP vaccine request opportunity is underway!
Here are a few important reminders around requesting vaccines for this order cycle:
-
This vaccine request opportunity opened on February 16th and will remain open for 2 additional weeks until Friday March 8th.
-
AVP vaccine requests will now take place in the IIS (in place of the survey used in previous years).
-
In order to receive an AVP order set in the IIS, your facility’s provider agreement and accountability must be up to date. This includes the submission of up-to-date inventory in the IIS, and up-to-date temperature log submission in Redcap. If your facility’s accountability is up to date, you will now have an AVP order set available to select in the IIS containing the vaccines prioritized on your AVP provider agreement.
- If your facility is not up to date on accountability, you will not see an order set in the IIS. You can become compliant at any point before orders close on March 8th to have an order set added. Reach out to us at WAAdultVaccines@doh.wa.gov and we can help get you back on track and eligible to order. Please don’t wait until the end of the request window if you intend to request vaccines.
- If you need assistance with Redcap, you can review any of our resources around navigating temperature log submission in Redcap: Step-by-Step Guide|Video | PDF
- The next AVP order request opportunity will be in September, so you may request a 6-month supply of vaccine. When placing your request, please keep in mind that AVP vaccines are a limited resource in high demand. Waste should be kept below 5%, so please order intentionally with regards to what your facility can administer.
- These non-COVID vaccines can only be administered to uninsured adults 19+ years of age. Please keep in mind that Medicare/ Medicaid are considered insurance and individuals with that coverage do not qualify for AVP.
- This is a vaccine request, not an order, and requests may be reduced to stay within the AVP’s available budget.
When contacting the AVP inbox, please include your facility’s PIN in all communications. This will help us to avoid delays and assist you as quickly as possible.
2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccines are available to order through the Adult Vaccine Program.
COVID-19 Vaccines ordered through AVP can be administered to individuals who are either uninsured or underinsured—all other AVP vaccines can only be administered to uninsured individuals.
COVID-19 vaccines are ordered through the IIS. There are currently three COVID-19 vaccines available to order:
- Pfizer prefilled syringes (fridge)
- Moderna single-dose vials (freezer, or a fridge for up to 30 days)
- Novavax multi-dose vials (5/vial, fridge)
The minimum order quantity for all three products is 10 doses.
